  • Publication number: 20240153312
    Abstract: A guest assistance platform may analyze video data of an environment that includes a liquid substance. The video data is analyzed using a machine learning model trained to detect objects in the liquid substance. The guest assistance platform may detect an individual in the liquid substance based on analyzing the video data and may determine a measure of confidence associated with detecting the individual in the liquid substance. The guest assistance platform may determine one or more confidence factors associated with detecting the individual in the liquid substance. The guest assistance platform may modify the measure of confidence using the one or more confidence factors and may determine whether the modified measure of confidence satisfies a confidence threshold. The guest assistance platform may selectively cause assistance to be provided to the individual or continue analyzing the video data based on whether the modified measure of confidence satisfies the confidence threshold.

  • Publication number: 20230419729
    Abstract: A behavior detection platform may obtain video data of an environment including a guest and may determine a set of normal guest behaviors associated with the environment. The platform may analyze, using a first machine learning model, the video data to identify features of the guest and analyze, using a second machine learning model, the video data and the features to determine an actual guest behavior of the guest. The platform may predict, using the second machine learning model, a predicted guest behavior of the guest based on the actual guest behavior. The behavior detection platform may determine that at least one of the actual guest behavior or the predicted guest behavior is not included in the set of normal guest behaviors. The platform may cause assistance to be provided to the guest based on determining that the actual guest behavior or the predicted guest behavior are not included.
