Publication number: 20230419728Abstract: Systems and methods of using audio and stacked computer vision algorithms in user environment and user behavior detection are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, a ground truth stress test may be used to ensure a high quality and accuracy of a video feed captured of a user performing a diagnostic test. A set of stacked computer vision algorithms may be applied to the video feed in order to extract from the video feed a user behavior exhibited while the user performed the diagnostic test, evaluate a plurality of markers associated with the exhibited user behavior, and generate a marker profile for the behavior. The marker profile can be compared against a database to classify the behavior as a type of anomalous behavior. In some embodiments, pre-recorded audio utterances can also be selected and played to the user performing the diagnostic test for guidance purposes.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 26, 2023Publication date: December 28, 2023Inventors: Sam Miller Miller, Brian Schwab, Zachary Carl Nienstedt
