Publication number: 20220343653Abstract: A search starting point determination unit determines a search starting point in which there is a high presence probability of the target person at a first time based on the person information. A backward tracking unit estimates the presence probabilities of the target person at different locations at a second time before the first time based on the person information and determines an area where the presence probability is higher. A recognition unit calculates a degree of matching between the appearance information and the surveillance images in the area and determines a location at which the degree of matching is higher. A forward tracking unit tracks the candidates of the target person forward in time from the second time based on the person information and the location. A presence probability estimation unit estimates the presence probability of the target person at the first time.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 27, 2019Publication date: October 27, 2022Applicant: NEC CorporationInventors: Kapik LEE, Takayuki ARAKAWA

Publication number: 20210334519Abstract: The information processing apparatus (2000) acquires a first profile face image (10) and a first frontal face image, and generates a frontal face image (20) based on the first profile face image (10), with a face image generator (30). The face image generator (30) has been trained so as to generate the frontal face image (20) based on the first profile face image (10). The information processing apparatus (2000) performs face recognition on the generated second frontal face image (20) with comparing to the first frontal face image. As a result, it is computed a first recognition score, which indicates probability of that the generated second frontal face image (20) and the acquired first frontal face image (15) are of the same subject. The information processing apparatus (2000) performs training on the face image generator (30) using the first recognition score that is a feedback from the face recognition.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 31, 2018Publication date: October 28, 2021Applicant: NEC CorporationInventor: Kapik LEE
