  • SECURE AND PRIVATE TRACKING ACROSS MULTIPLE CAMERAS
    Publication number: 20150227814
    Abstract: A technique for multi-camera object tracking is disclosed that preserves privacy of imagery from each camera or group of cameras. This technique uses secure multi-party computation to compute a distance metric across data from multiple cameras without revealing any information to operators of the cameras except whether or not an object was observed by both cameras. This is achieved by a distance metric learning technique that reduces the computing complexity of secure computation while maintaining object identification accuracy.
    Type: Application
