  • Patent number: 10007862
    Abstract: A system and method for detecting an object of interest. A system and method may generate a first signature for an object of interest based on an image of the object of interest. A system and method may generate a second signature for a candidate object based on an image of the candidate object. A system and method may calculate a similarity score by relating the first signature to the second signature and may determine the image of the candidate object is an image of the object of interest based on the similarity score.
    Type: Grant

    Date of Patent: June 26, 2018
    Assignee: QOGNIFY LTD.

  • Patent number: 9721166
    Abstract: A system and method for detecting a particular human in a plurality of images of humans may include one or more processors to receive input data describing the appearance of the particular human via a graphical user interface (GUI). An image representing the particular human may be generated based on the input data. This may take the form of an avatar or artificial image. This artificial or processor-generated image may be used to identify one or more of the humans in said plurality of images as a candidate for the particular human.

  • Patent number: 9576204
    Abstract: A system or method for automatic calculation of scene geometry may include receiving, by a processor, a video stream including a plurality of video frames. A video frame may be divided into blocks, and a vertical vanishing point of the video stream may be determined based on a dominant orientation of detected edges in the blocks. A horizon and scale of the video stream may be estimated based on optical flow of pixels between two consecutive video frames. A set of human heads may be detected in a video frame of the video stream based on the estimated horizon and scale of the video stream.

  • Patent number: 8842162
    Abstract: The subject matter discloses a method, comprising obtaining a scene from a video camera and defining at least one point of the scene; creating a first scene terrain model of the scene, said first scene terrain model comprises a typical human object size in pixels in said at least one point of the scene; creating a second scene model of the scene, said second model defines a false positive determination that said at least one point comprises a human object; wherein said second scene model is created when the scene does not contain a human object; obtaining an image of the scene, said image is captured by a video camera; determining whether the human object is detected at the at least one point of said captured image by applying said first scene terrain model and said second scene model on the least one point.
