  • Publication number: 20250225666
    Abstract: A crime center system generating a graphical user interface, which may be map-based, that facilitates efficient following of a moving object across cameras covering a geographic area. The system processes information on a network of cameras to determine the locations the cameras and their orientations. An object-tracking interface is generated by the system that includes an active camera view window presenting video from a camera capturing video of the geographic area that includes the tracked object. The system determines a set of the cameras, based on known locations and orientations, capturing images about the geographic space captured by the active camera. The system generates a “halo” of camera icons in the object-tracking interface around the periphery of the active camera view window, which provides a 360-degree view of available cameras about the active camera's location allowing a user to select a next active camera to efficiently track an object.

  • Publication number: 20250225450
    Abstract: An apparatus and methods for predicting a resource growth pattern are provided. The apparatus comprises a processor and a memory connected to the processor. The memory contains instructions configuring the processor to receive a datum, where the datum describes a prioritization value of a first activity pattern relative to a second activity pattern. The processor may classify the datum to a label selected from multiple labels based on the prioritization value. Classifying includes generating a representation of the datum in a first space having a first number of dimensions using a first machine-learning process and projecting the representation of the datum to a second space having a second number of dimensions using a second machine-learning process to result in a projected representation of a second number of dimensions describing an object sequence. The processor may generate an interface query data structure to at least display the resource growth pattern.
