  • Patent number: 10956753
    Abstract: To provide an image processing system, an image processing method, and a program, capable of detecting a group with high irregularity. An image processing system is provided with: a group detector that detects a group based on an input image captured with an image capturing at a first time; a repeating group analyzer that determines that a detected group has been previously detected; and an alert module that reports when the detected group has been determined by the repeating group analyzer to have been previously detected.

  • Patent number: 10909697
    Abstract: Provided is an image processing apparatus (2000) including an index value calculation unit (2020) and a presentation unit (2040). The index value calculation unit (2020) acquires a plurality of images captured by a camera (3000) (captured images), and calculates an index value indicating the degree of change in the state of a monitoring target in the captured image, using the acquired captured image. The presentation unit (2040) presents an indication based on the index value calculated by the index value calculation unit (2020) on the captured image captured by the camera (3000).

  • Publication number: 20210027110
    Abstract: The first parameter generation unit 811 generates a first parameter, which is a parameter of a first recognizer, using first learning data including a combination of data to be recognized, a correct label of the data, and domain information indicating a collection environment of the data. The second parameter generation unit 812 generates a second parameter, which is a parameter of a second recognizer, using second learning data including a combination of data to be recognized that is collected in a predetermined collection environment, a correct label of the data, and target domain information indicating the predetermined collection environment, based on the first parameter. The third parameter generation unit 813 integrates the first parameter and the second parameter to generate a third parameter to be used for pattern recognition of input data by learning using the first learning data.

  • Patent number: 10854056
    Abstract: A similarity computation unit (130) derives a first probability P indicating that a first moving body appearing in the first video is the same as a second moving body appearing in the second video on the basis of similarity of feature value of the moving bodies. A non-appearance probability computation unit (140) derives a second probability Q indicating that the first moving body is not the same as the second moving body on the basis of an elapsed time after the first moving body exits from the first video. A person determination unit (150) determines whether the first moving body is the same as the second moving body by comparing the probability P and Q.

  • Publication number: 20200334472
    Abstract: [Problem] To provide a motion condition estimation device, a motion condition estimation method and a motion condition estimation program capable of accurately estimating the motion condition of monitored subjects even in a crowded environment. [Solution] A motion condition estimation device according to the present invention is provided with a quantity estimating means and a motion condition estimating means. The quantity estimating means uses a plurality of chronologically consecutive images to estimate a quantity of monitored subjects for each local region in each image. The motion condition estimating means estimates the motion condition of the monitored subjects from chronological changes in the quantities estimated in each local region.

  • Patent number: 10769468
    Abstract: Provided is a technique for enhancing operability of a mobile apparatus. An information processing apparatus (2000) includes a first processing unit (2020), a second processing unit (2040), and a control unit (2060). The first processing unit (2020) generates information indicating an event detection position in accordance with a position on a surveillance image set in a first operation. The first operation is an operation with respect to the surveillance image displayed on a display screen. The second processing unit (2040) performs a display change process with respect to the surveillance image or a window including the surveillance image. The control unit (2060) causes any one of the first processing unit (2020) and the second processing unit (2040) to process the first operation on the basis of a second operation.
