  • Publication number: 20080297599
    Abstract: One embodiment is a method of storing video data from a video surveillance system having one or more cameras. Video data is captured from one or more surveillance cameras. Meta-data is automatically generated by performing video analysis on the captured video data from the surveillance cameras. A human operator may manually enter additional meta-data. Attribute data and associated weights, representing information about the relevance of the meta-data, is received. The video data is stored in a hierarchical video storage area; the meta-data, indexed by date and time stamp to the video data, is stored in a meta-data storage area; and the attribute data is stored in an attribute storage area. One or more alerts may be issued based on the past and present meta-data. The video data is secured by encrypting and storing the video data remotely, and audit trails are generated about who and when viewed the video data.

  • Publication number: 20080278579
    Abstract: A method and system for intelligent monitoring and intelligent alerting. One or more data inputs are received from one or more systems. A weight is attributed to each data input based on the data input, the source of the data input, and other factors. One or more video inputs are received from one or more video sources. Image analysis is performed on the video data to determine one or more video parameters. The video parameters are assigned one or more weights based on the video source and other factors. A series of rules are evaluated using the data inputs, the video inputs, and their respective weights. An associated action is performed for each rule that is activated. The present invention may be used for various security and safety purposes, including fighting crime, detecting and preventing terrorist activity, and ensuring safety procedures are followed.

  • Patent number: 7382244
    Abstract: The present invention is a video surveillance, storage, and alerting system having surveillance cameras, video analytics devices, audio sensory devices, other sensory devices, and a plurality of data storage devices. A network management module monitors network status of all subsystems including cameras, servers, storage devices, etc. and shows actively monitored areas on a physical map. A vehicle information module retrieves information from a law enforcement database about vehicles detected in the video data based on the vehicle's license plate, including information about stolen vehicles, as well as warrant, wanted person, and mug shot information for registered drivers of the vehicles. Video tips are received and processed from anonymous and non-anonymous sources.

  • Publication number: 20070083531
    Abstract: Hashing functions have many practical applications in data storage and retrieval. Perfect hashing functions are extremely difficult to find, especially if the data set is large and without large-scale structure. There are great rewards for finding good hashing functions, considering the savings in computational time such functions provide, and much effort has been expended in this search. This in mind, we present a strong competitive evolutionary method to locate efficient hashing functions for specific data sets by sampling and evolving from the set of polynomials over the ring of integers mod n. We find favorable results that seem to indicate the power and usefulness of evolutionary methods in this search. Polynomials thus generated are found to have consistently better collision frequencies than other hashing methods. This results in a reduction in average number of array probes per data element hashed by a factor of two.
