  • Patent number: 11282214
    Abstract: A method which includes obtaining a first sequence of images of a user attempting to reproduce a sequence of poses of a reference user and determining correct performance of the user. For each body part of a plurality of body parts of the user, a spatial orientation of the body part in a referential independent of an orientation of any other body part of the user is compared to the spatial orientation of the reference user. If the comparison does not meet a matching criterion for at least one body part of the user, data representative of a mismatch between the orientation of the body part of the user and the spatial orientation of the reference user is output, thereby enabling the user to correct his pose using a feedback pointing to the body part to be corrected.

  • Publication number: 20210209770
    Abstract: A method which comprises, by a processor and memory circuitry: obtaining a first sequence of images of a user, determining correct performance of a pose of the user in the first sequence of images, including based on at least one image, for each body part of a plurality of body parts of the user, comparing at least one of spatial orientation and position of the body part, or of at least one body node thereof, with at least one of desired spatial orientation and position, if the comparison does not meet a matching criterion for at least one body part of the user, or of at least one body node thereof, outputting data representative of a mismatch between the at least one body part of the user, or of the at least one body node thereof, and the at least one of desired spatial orientation and position.

  • Publication number: 20180210944
    Abstract: Method and system for classification in imbalanced datasets within a supervised classification framework. Bootstrap methodology is modified according to sampling weights and adaptive target set size principle, to induce weak classifiers from the bootstrap samples in an iterative procedure that results in a set of weak classifiers. A weighted combination scheme is used to adaptively combine the weak classifiers to a strong classifier that achieves good performance for all classes (reflected as high values for metrics such as G-mean and F-score) as well as good overall accuracy.

  • Publication number: 20170032276
    Abstract: Method and system for classification in imbalanced datasets within a supervised classification framework. Bootstrap methodology is modified according to k-Nearest Neighbor sampling weights and adaptive target set size principle, to induce weak classifiers from the bootstrap samples in an iterative procedure that results in a set of weak classifiers. A weighted combination scheme is used to adaptively combine the weak classifiers to a strong classifier that achieves good performance for all classes (reflected as high values for metrics such as G-mean and F-score) as well as good overall accuracy.

  • Publication number: 20150363706
    Abstract: A system and method to perform multisensory data fusion in a distributed sensor environment for object identification classification. Embodiments of the invention are sensor-agnostic and capable handling a large number of sensors of different types via a gateway which transmits sensor measurements to a fusion engine according to predefined rules. A relation exploiter allows combining sensor measurements with information on object relationships from a knowledge base. Also included in the knowledge base is a travel model for objects, along with a graph generator to enable forecasting of object locations for further correlation of sensor data in object identification. Multiple task managers allow multiple fusion tasks to be performed in parallel for flexibility and scalability of the system.
