Patent number: 10445563Abstract: A method of monitoring the amount of time spent in a specified area by an individual comprises employing a first camera to automatically create one or more entrance images, each entrance image containing a face of an entering individual that passes a first location, and storing each entrance image in a database along with a corresponding entrance time that the entering individual passed the entrance location. An exit image is compared to the entrance images in the database to identify a matching entrance image containing the same face as the exit image. A stay time is then determined for the exiting individual by determining the difference between the entrance time corresponding to the matching entrance image and the exit time.Type: GrantFiled: September 28, 2017Date of Patent: October 15, 2019Assignee: VERINT SYSTEMS LTD.Inventors: Oren Golan, Gadi Zimerman, Zvi Figov, Ofer Waisman, Elad Falckovitch, Doron Yankovitch

Patent number: 10438066Abstract: Models are generated from objects identified in video. Each model is evaluated based on knowledge of the objects determined from video analysis, and preferred models are identified based on the evaluations. In some examples, each model could be evaluated by tracking a movement of each object in the video by using each model to track the object from which it was generated, evaluating an ability of each model to identify the objects in the video that are similar to the object from which it was generated, and determining an amount of false identifications made by each model of different objects in different video that does not include the object from which it was generated.Type: GrantFiled: June 29, 2018Date of Patent: October 8, 2019Assignee: Verint Americas Inc.Inventors: Gadi Zimerman, Itsik Horovitz, Shmuel Akerman, Amir Sole

Patent number: 10095954Abstract: Embodiments disclosed herein provide systems and methods for matching trajectories across disjointed video views. In a particular embodiment, a method provides receiving a plurality of tagged trajectories that are tagged with an indicator of which trajectory pairs of the plurality of tagged trajectories are matching trajectory pairs and processing each of the trajectory pairs using each of a plurality of trajectory matching algorithms. The method further provides creating a model for matching trajectories based on the output of each of the plurality of trajectory matching algorithms for each of the pairs. The method further provides receiving a pair of trajectories and processing the pair of trajectories using each of the plurality of the trajectory matching algorithms. The method further provides processing the output of each of the plurality of the trajectory matching algorithms for the pair of trajectories using the model to determine whether the pair of trajectories is matching.Type: GrantFiled: January 17, 2013Date of Patent: October 9, 2018Assignee: VERINT SYSTEMS LTD.Inventors: Shahar Daliyot, Gadi Zimerman, Shmuel Kiro, Oren Golan
