Patent number: 10607089Abstract: An approach for re-identifying an object in a test image is presented. Similarity measures between the test image and training images captured by a first camera are determined. The similarity measures are based on Bhattacharyya distances between feature representations of an estimated background region of the test image and feature representations of background regions of the training images. A transformed test image based on the Bhattacharyya distances has a brightness that is different from the test image's brightness and matches a brightness of training images captured by a second camera. An appearance of the transformed test image resembles an appearance of a capture of the test image by the second camera. Another image included in test images captured by the second camera is identified as being closest in appearance to the transformed test image and another object in the identified other image is a re-identification of the object.Type: GrantFiled: November 26, 2018Date of Patent: March 31, 2020Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Lisa M. Brown, Ankur Datta, Rogerio S. Feris, Sharathchandra U. Pankanti

Patent number: 10037607Abstract: Image-matching tracks the movements of the objects from initial camera scenes to ending camera scenes in non-overlapping cameras. Paths are defined through scenes for pairings of initial and ending cameras by different respective scene entry and exit points. For each of said camera pairings a combination path having a highest total number of tracked movements relative to all other combinations of one path through the initial and ending camera scene is chosen, and the scene exit point of the selected path through the initial camera and the scene entry point of the selected path into the ending camera define a path connection of the initial camera scene to the ending camera scene.Type: GrantFiled: January 22, 2016Date of Patent: July 31, 2018Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Lisa M.

Patent number: 10002309Abstract: A method includes the following steps. A video sequence including detection results from one or more detectors is received, the detection results identifying one or more objects. A clustering framework is applied to the detection results to identify one or more clusters associated with the one or more objects. The clustering framework is applied to the video sequence on a frame-by-frame basis. Spatial and temporal information for each of the one or more clusters are determined. The one or more clusters are associated to the detection results based on the spatial and temporal information in consecutive frames of the video sequence to generate tracking information. One or more target tracks are generated based on the tracking information for the one or more clusters. The one or more target tracks are consolidated to generate refined tracks for the one or more objects.Type: GrantFiled: November 10, 2016Date of Patent: June 19, 2018Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Lisa M.

Patent number: 9652863Abstract: Multi-mode video event indexing includes determining a quality of object distinctiveness with respect to images from a video stream input. A high-quality analytic mode is selected from multiple modes and applied to video input images via a hardware device to determine object activity within the video input images if the determined level of detected quality of object distinctiveness meets a threshold level of quality, else a low-quality analytic mode is selected and applied to the video input images via a hardware device to determine object activity within the video input images, wherein the low-quality analytic mode is different from the high-quality analytic mode.Type: GrantFiled: August 19, 2015Date of Patent: May 16, 2017Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Russell P.

Patent number: 9633263Abstract: An approach for re-identifying an object in a first test image is presented. Brightness transfer functions (BTFs) between respective pairs of training images are determined. Respective similarity measures are determined between the first test image and each of the training images captured by the first camera (first training images). A weighted brightness transfer function (WBTF) is determined by combining the BTFs weighted by weights of the first training images. The weights are based on the similarity measures. The first test image is transformed by the WBTF to better match one of the training images captured by the second camera. Another test image, captured by the second camera, is identified because it is closer in appearance to the transformed test image than other test images captured by the second camera. An object in the identified test image is a re-identification of the object in the first test image.Type: GrantFiled: October 9, 2012Date of Patent: April 25, 2017Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Lisa M.

Patent number: 9477890Abstract: Techniques for object detection are provided that employ limited learned attribute ranges. One or more objects are initially detected for a full range of one or more attributes at each location of an image. Thereafter, a set of positional constraints are generated indicating an expected range of values for each position in the image for one or more of the attributes based on the detected objects employing a geometric model of a scene in the image. Objects are then detected in the image using the expected range of values for each position in the image for the one or more the attributes. The attributes comprise, for example, one or more of size, pose and rotation of the objects. A best fit is computed to the geometric model to generate the set of positional constraints, for example, using a least squares approach.Type: GrantFiled: November 6, 2013Date of Patent: October 25, 2016Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Lisa M.
