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.
Abstract: A method for verifying the authenticity and integrity of an ordered sequence of digital video frames, without having access to the original recording, by embedding therein a respective series of digital signatures based on a secret key, or keys, and on the video content of respective frames. Signatures are camouflaged by embedding in transform coefficients of a transformed representation of the video data in parts of the frame corresponding to motion. If there is sufficient motion to contain all of the signature bits, a supplementary technique embeds in high-texture areas of a frame. A final fall-back is to embed in a pre-defined default zone. A method of predicting when supplementary embedding is needed enables the process to be applied in a single pass allowing real-time operation. Verification is done during decoding by comparing, for identity, embedded signatures with signatures calculated anew using the method employed to embed.

Abstract: The subject matter discloses a method, comprising obtaining a current retention time of storage associated with a digital recorder; obtaining current bitrates of channels used to transmit video captured by edge devices communicating with the digital recorder. The method then determines change in compression rates to be allocated to at least a portion of the channels according to the current retention time and the current bitrates and transmits the change in compression rates to be allocated to the channels to edge devices communicating with the digital recorder.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for predicting customer churn from an organization. The method and apparatus determine an interaction churn score based on analyzing an interaction between the customer and the organization and related data. Optionally, the method and apparatus determine also a transactional churn score based on additional data related to the customer or the organization, and a combined churn score based on the interaction churn score and the transactional churn score. The interaction churn score is determined by assessing a categorization score for the interaction in association with one or more categories, and combining the categorization scores. Of further use is a retention offer mechanism for making a retention offer to the customer.
Abstract: A system and method for monitoring Internet Protocol (IP) data traffic may include receiving IP data generated by a target device interacting on the Internet, determining at least one activity performed by the target device based on the IP data, wherein an activity describes an interaction on the Internet, and aggregating data describing the at least one activity into one or more chunks, each chunk corresponding to a portion of time and at least one activity performed by the targets.
Abstract: A system, device and method is provided for handling customer-agent interactions. An unsuccessful interaction may be detected between a customer and a first agent unable to resolve a problem. A successful interaction may be detected between the customer and a second agent that resolves the problem. The first agent may be sent a report summarizing the successful interaction by the second agent.
Abstract: A method of providing robust call center operation for an organization, based on a first data center with computerized components that provide service to the call center, including, receiving at a failover manager having a processor and memory, notification from a user to shut down components of the first data center providing service to the call center, shutting down or verifying non-functionality of the components of the first data center providing service to the call center, activating similar components from a second data center to replace functionality of the first data center, wherein the components of the first data center and the second data center are connected over a network, and updating references of the call center to access the components from the second data center instead of the components from the first data center.

Abstract: System and method for compressing and decompressing of differentially encoded video streams. I-frames of the encoded video stream may be relatively compressed and decompressed, thereby reducing video data size of an already encoded video stream. Compression and decompression may be lossless processes and may typically require relatively low processing power and small memory sizes.
Abstract: A system and method for estimating velocity of a mobile station in a wireless communication system using time-frequency signal processing and a geographical database. The geographical database is used for prediction of ray trajectory and ray power to provide an estimate of propagation delay associated with database points.
Abstract: A method and apparatus for laughter detection. Laughter is detected through the presence of a sequence of at least a predetermined number such as three consecutive bursts, each burst comprising a voiced portion and an unvoiced portion. After detecting bursts, n-tuples such as triplets are detected, and a likelihood of each burst N-tuple to represent laughter is provided by comparison to predetermined thresholds. Finally, a total score is assigned to the signal based on the grades associated with the triplets and parameters such as the distance between the N-tuples, the total score representing the probability that the audio signal comprises a laughter episode. The method and apparatus preferably comprise a training step and module for determining the thresholds according to manually marked audio signals.
Abstract: Embodiments of the invention are directed to a computer-implemented method of performing a quality evaluation. The method may include selecting from a plurality of interaction recordings at least one interaction recording according to at least one KPI. The method may include associating a selected interaction recording with a predefined evaluation form, presenting interactions selected for evaluation to an evaluator and performing a predefined action based on a result of the evaluation.

Abstract: A system and a computer-implemented method for monitoring and guiding agents of call centers are described. The method includes receiving during an interaction call between an agent and a and a customer, real-time data associated with the interaction; retrieving by the call analysis system, a performance profile of the agent; using the performance profile of the agent and the real-time data associated with the interaction to determine whether a corrective action alert should be sent to the agent and generating and transmitting the alert to a terminal of the agent during the interaction if so determined.
Abstract: A data provider generates a data encryption key and an identifier, uses the data encryption key to encrypt data, sends the encrypted data and the identifier to a data requestor, and sends the data encryption key and the identifier to a crypto information server. The data requestor sends the identifier to the crypto information server to request the encryption key. The crypto information server authenticates the data requestor and, contingent on that authentication, sends the data encryption key to the data requestor. If a plurality of data instances are captured, then for each instance, a respective data encryption key and identifier are generated.
