| 20100226582 | ASSIGNING LABELS TO IMAGES IN A COLLECTION - A method of assigning semantic labels to images in a particular collection, includes acquiring seed labels for a subset of images; propagating the seed labels to other images according to a similarity metric; and storing the semantic labels, including both seed labels and propagated labels with the corresponding images. | 09-09-2010 |
| 20110305366 | Adaptive Action Detection - Described is providing an action model (classifier) for automatically detecting actions in video clips, in which unlabeled data of a target dataset is used to adaptively train the action model based upon similar actions in a labeled source dataset. The target dataset comprising unlabeled video data is processed into a background model. The action model is generated from the background model using a source dataset comprising labeled data for an action of interest. The action model is iteratively refined, generally by fixing a current instance of the action model and using the current instance of the action model to search for a set of detected regions (subvolumes), and then fixing the set of subvolumes and updating the current instance of the action model based upon the set of subvolumes, and so on, for a plurality of iterations. | 12-15-2011 |
| 20110311137 | HIERARCHICAL FILTERED MOTION FIELD FOR ACTION RECOGNITION - Described is a hierarchical filtered motion field technology such as for use in recognizing actions in videos with crowded backgrounds. Interest points are detected, e.g., as 2D Harris corners with recent motion, e.g. locations with high intensities in a motion history image (MHI). A global spatial motion smoothing filter is applied to the gradients of MHI to eliminate low intensity corners that are likely isolated, unreliable or noisy motions. At each remaining interest point, a local motion field filter is applied to the smoothed gradients by computing a structure proximity between sets of pixels in the local region and the interest point. The motion at a pixel/pixel set is enhanced or weakened based on its structure proximity with the interest point (nearer pixels are enhanced). | 12-22-2011 |
