20090131836 | SUSPICIOUS BEHAVIOR DETECTION SYSTEM AND METHOD - There is provided a suspicious behavior detection system capable of specifying and identifying a suspicious person exhibiting abnormal behavior. A suspicious behavior detection system is a system to detect suspicious behavior of a monitored subject, by using images captured by a stereo camera. The suspicious behavior detection system has an ambulatory path acquisition unit which acquires ambulatory path information of the monitored subject, and a behavioral identification unit which identifies behavior of the monitored subject based on the ambulatory path information, and automatically determines suspicious behavior of the monitored subject. | 05-21-2009 |
20090213222 | SYSTEM FOR TRACKING A MOVING OBJECT, BY USING PARTICLE FILTERING - In a tracking system for tracking a moving object by using a particle filter, the particle filter is configured to arrange particles initially, in a standby state, in a given background region provided in the screen of a camera and to rearrange the particles with respect to the moving object in accordance with a change in likelihood that the object has with respect to the particles. | 08-27-2009 |
20100157062 | SYSTEM FOR MONITORING PERSONS BY USING CAMERAS - According to one embodiment, a monitoring system is provided, which has a personal authentication unit and a camera. The personal authentication unit is provided near a security gate and authenticates a person allowed to pass through the security gate. The camera photographs an area near the security gate, in which the personal authentication unit is provided. The monitoring system further has a data generation unit configured to generate personal attribute data about the person authenticated by the personal authentication unit, a person identification unit configured to identify the person authenticated, on the basis of video data generated by the camera, and a monitoring data generation unit configured to generate monitoring data composed of video data and metadata. The video data represents an image including the person identified by the person identification unit. The metadata is associated with the video data and containing the personal attribute data. | 06-24-2010 |

A suspicious behavior detection system is a system to detect suspicious behavior of a monitored subject, by using images captured by a stereo camera. The suspicious behavior detection system has an ambulatory path acquisition unit which acquires ambulatory path information of the monitored subject, and a behavioral identification unit which identifies behavior of the monitored subject based on the ambulatory path information, and automatically determines suspicious behavior of the monitored subject. | 12-20-2012 |
20130235272 | IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS AND IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD - An image processing apparatus of one embodiment executes a super-resolution processing which generate a high resolution image of a frame from low resolution images of a plurality of frames by performing alignment of pixels on a reference frame on a standard frame which is made to have high resolution and executing reconfiguration of an image based on a result of the aligning. The image processing apparatus includes a plurality of arithmetic processing units which can operate in parallel. When executing alignment between the standard frame and the reference frame, the plurality of arithmetic processing units operate in parallel a first alignment processing and a second alignment processing which are in the reverse relation to each other in terms of the relation of the standard and the reference, and the first alignment processing and the second alignment processing share their processing results mutually. | 09-12-2013 |
20140254952 | INFORMATION PROCESSOR, CLOUD PLATFORM, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT THEREOF - According to one embodiment, an information processor divides input image data for a plurality of information processors so as to perform a super resolution process as a distributed processing. The super resolution process generates a high resolution image based on a plurality of low resolution input images. The information processor includes a division point determining unit, a division processor, and a combination processor. The division point determining unit determines a division point for an input image of a sequence of image frames. The division processor divides, for each of the information processors, the input image at the division point, and allocates each divided input image to each corresponding one of the information processors. | 09-11-2014 |
