20080243614 | ADAPTIVE ADVERTISING AND MARKETING SYSTEM AND METHOD - A technique of adaptive advertising is provided. The technique includes obtaining at least one of demographic and behavioral profiles of a plurality of individuals in an environment and adjusting an advertising strategy in the environment of one or more products based upon the demographic and behavioral profiles of the plurality of individuals. | 10-02-2008 |
20080259163 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR DISTRIBUTED MULTIPLE TARGET TRACKING - A method and system for distributed tracking of multiple targets is disclosed. Multiple targets to be tracked by a plurality of trackers are detected in a frame. The motion state variable of each of the plurality of trackers is calculated in the E-step of a variational Expectation-Maximization algorithm. Further, the data association variable of each of the plurality of trackers is calculated in the M-step of the algorithm. Depending on the motion state variable and the data association variable, the multiple targets are tracked. | 10-23-2008 |
20080291272 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR REMOTE ESTIMATION OF MOTION PARAMETERS - A system and method, the method including calibrating an image capturing system; capturing a video sequence with the image capturing system; detecting a subject of interest in the video sequence; tracking the subject over a period of time; and extracting data associated with a motion of the subject based on the tracking. | 11-27-2008 |
20090015678 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR AUTOMATIC POSE AND TRAJECTORY TRACKING IN VIDEO - A system and method, the method including stabilizing a video sequence captured by an image capturing system, extracting a subject of interest in the stabilized video sequence to isolate the subject from other objects in the video sequence, determining a trajectory associated with the subject, tracking the trajectory of the subject over a period of time; extracting data associated with the trajectory of the subject based on the tracking; and presenting the extracted data in a user-understandable format. | 01-15-2009 |
20090060373 | METHODS AND COMPUTER READABLE MEDIUM FOR DISPLAYING A RESTORED IMAGE - Methods and computer program readable medium for restoring an image. The methods include the steps of selecting one or more frames followed by determining the regions of interest so that blurring effect is determined in the regions of interest using various techniques. The regions of interest are then deblurred and one of the deblurred regions of interest is then blended with the frame resulting in a restored frame. | 03-05-2009 |
20090290753 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR GAZE ESTIMATION - A gaze estimation method and system, the method including capturing a video sequence of images with an image capturing system, designating at least one landmark in a head portion of the captured video sequence, fitting a virtual model of the head portion to the actual head portion in the captured video sequence, and determining the gaze estimation. | 11-26-2009 |
20090310862 | Method and system for crowd segmentation - Aspects of the disclosure provide a method for crowd segmentation that can globally optimize crowd segmentation of an input image based on local information of the input image. The method can include receiving an input image of a site, initializing a plurality of hypothesis based on the input image, dividing the input image into a plurality of patches, calculating an affinity measure of one or more patches to a hypothesis based on a partial response of the patches to a whole body classifier of the hypothesis that includes a combination of weak classifiers, and optimizing assignments of the plurality of patches to the plurality of hypothesis based on the affinity measures of the plurality of patches to the plurality of hypothesis. | 12-17-2009 |
20100245567 | SYSTEM, METHOD AND PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR CAMERA-BASED DISCOVERY OF SOCIAL NETWORKS - A system, method and program product for camera-based discovery of social networks. The computer implemented method for identifying individuals and associating tracks with individuals in camera-generated images from a face capture camera(s) and a tracking camera(s), wherein the computer implemented method includes: receiving images of an individual from the face capture camera(s) on a computer; receiving images of a track(s) of an individual from the tracking camera(s) on a computer; automatically determining with the computer the track(s) from the images from the tracking camera(s); and associating with the computer the track(s) with the individual(s) and a unique identifier. The present invention has been described in terms of specific embodiment(s), and it is recognized that equivalents, alternatives, and modifications, aside from those expressly stated, are possible and within the scope of the appending claims. | 09-30-2010 |
20110316697 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MONITORING AN ENTITY WITHIN AN AREA - A system and method for monitoring an entity within an area is disclosed. The method includes specifying at least one criterion associated with an event of interest. The at least one criterion is specified visually on a display screen. At least one entity to be monitored is identified, and a movement of the at least one entity is captured visually on the display screen. The captured movement of the entity comprises at least one attribute associated with the at least one entity. | 12-29-2011 |
20120008828 | TARGET-LINKED RADIATION IMAGING SYSTEM - An imaging detection system includes at least one location detection device configured to determine coordinates of a target, at least one detector configured to detect events from a source associated with the target, and a processor coupled in communication with the at least one location detection device and the at least one detector. The processor is configured to receive the coordinates from the at least one location detection device and the events from the at least one detector, translate the events using the coordinates acquired from the at least one location detection device to compensate for a relative motion between the source and the at least one detector, and output a processed data set having the events translated based on the coordinates. | 01-12-2012 |
