Patent number: 7327885Abstract: A method detects short term, unusual events in a video. First, features are extracted features from the audio and the video portions of the video. Segments of the video are labeled according to the features. A global sliding window is applied to the labeled segments to determine global characteristics over time, while a local sliding window is applied only to the labeled segments of the global sliding window to determine local characteristic over time. The local window is substantially shorter in time than the global window. A distance between the global and local characteristic is measured to determine occurrences of the unusual short time events.Type: GrantFiled: June 30, 2003Date of Patent: February 5, 2008Assignee: Mitsubishi Electric Research Laboratories, Inc.Inventors: Ajay Divakaran, Ziyou Xiong, Regunathan Radhakrishnan, Kadir A. Peker, Koji Miyahara

Patent number: 5173850Abstract: An apparatus and a method for managing issuance of turnaround tickets include a ticket issuing unit for issuing turnaround tickets and test tickets, a separate reading unit for reading the issued tickets, and a control unit for controlling the issuance of turnaround and test tickets. In particular, the test ticket issuing unit issues a test ticket with predetermined test data printed thereon at a predetermined time intervals for use in testing. The turnaround ticket issuing units issues continuously issues a stream of turnaround tickets each having predetermined turnaround ticket data printed thereon until a next test ticket is issued. The test ticket is fed through the reading unit to check the quality of the printed test data. The next set of turnaround tickets are issued only if the test ticket print quality coincides with the known predetermined test data.Type: GrantFiled: June 5, 1991Date of Patent: December 22, 1992Assignee: Hitachi, Ltd.Inventors: Shigeo Shimura, Koji Miyahara

Patent number: 5165043Abstract: A memory card comprises an index area, and a data area including a plurality of extents in each of which data is recorded. The index area includes in correspondence with each of the extents, an area for entering a file name, a status indicating area for entering the number of bytes to be recorded per sector, and areas for entering the beginning and end addresses of the corresponding extent, respectively. The memory card is accessed in such a way that the index area is read to decide if a desired file name exists, and that the status indicating area is read subject to the existence of the desired file name. A control unit translates an address premised on a floppy disc into an address for accessing the memory card, on the basis of the number of bytes entered in the status indicating area, and then accesses the memory card.Type: GrantFiled: March 9, 1990Date of Patent: November 17, 1992Assignee: Hitachi, Ltd.Inventors: Koji Miyahara, Shigeo Kikuta, Tateo Yokoyama
