摘要： A person's region is detected from input video of a surveillance camera; a person's direction in the person's region is determined; the separability of person's clothes is determined to generate clothing segment separation information; furthermore, clothing features representing visual features of person's clothes in the person's region are extracted in consideration of the person's direction and the clothing segment separation information. The person's direction is determined based on a person's face direction, person's motion, and clothing symmetry. The clothing segment separation information is generated based on analysis information regarding a geometrical shape of the person's region and visual segment information representing person's clothing segments which are visible based on the person's region and background prior information. A person is searched out based on a result of matching between a clothing query text, representing a type and a color of person's clothes, and the extracted person's clothing features.

摘要： This image identity scale calculation system can calculate an identity scale representing a degree of identity of two images in consideration of identification capability and robustness. An image feature comparison unit is supplied with hierarchical quantization index codes, which are encodings allowing unique specification of quantization indexes of a plurality of hierarchies calculated by hierarchical quantization for each quantization target region of the two images, and selects a quantization index set used for comparison as a comparing quantization index set based on additionally supplied information in accordance with a previously defined hierarchical quantization method. Then, the image feature comparison unit compares the hierarchical quantization index codes of the two images by using the comparing quantization index set, and calculates an identity scale of the two images.

摘要： The video descriptor generation device includes a first extraction unit, a second extraction unit, and a feature combining unit. The first extraction unit extracts a first feature for each picture which is a frame or a field of a video. The second extraction unit extracts a second feature from a region defined by an edge of an image included in the video. The feature combining unit combines the first feature and the second feature to generate a video descriptor.
