| 20080201116 | SURVEILLANCE SYSTEM AND METHODS - A surveillance system generally includes a data capture module that collects sensor data. A scoring engine module receives the sensor data and computes at least one of an abnormality score and a normalcy score based on the sensor data, at least one dynamically loaded learned data model, and a learned scoring method. A decision making module receives the at least one of the abnormality score and the normalcy score and generates an alert message based on the at least one of the abnormality score and the normalcy score and a learned decision making method to produce progressive behavior and threat detection. | 08-21-2008 |
| 20080201277 | SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE AND PROCESS FOR AUTOMATING INTELLIGENT SURVEILLANCE CENTER OPERATION - The intelligent, automated surveillance system collects the interactions between the security personal and the surveillance system during the handling of an alarm. Each alarm is modeled as a “transaction” and each operation/action that a security personal executes modeled as an “event” within the transaction. The collected events within the transaction are in partial order. Furthermore, the system provides a scoring system for a security manager to evaluate the performance of the security guard. The score of the sequence of actions that the security guard performed manually and the system performed automatically for each set of dependent alarms are used to decide future sequence of operation. Security guards can overwrite the automatic sequencing of actions with manual sequence of operations. | 08-21-2008 |
| 20090276705 | SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE AND PROCESS FOR ASSESSING MULTI-PERSPECTIVE MULTI-CONTEXT ABNORMAL BEHAVIOR - A multi-perspective context sensitive behavior assessment system includes an adaptive behavior model builder establishing a real-time reference model that captures intention of motion behavior. It operates by modeling outputs of multiple user defined scoring functions with respect to multiple references of application specific target areas of interest. The target areas have criticality values representing a user's preference regarding the target areas with respect to one another. The outputs of the scoring functions are multiplied by the critically values to form high level sequences of representation that are communicated to the user. | 11-05-2009 |
| 20100177194 | Image Processing System and Method for Object Tracking - An image processing method can be performed on a video image that includes an initial frame and a plurality of subsequent frames. An object is located within the initial frame of the video image and a histogram related to the object is generated. A foreground map that includes the object is also generated. For each subsequent frame, a mean shift iteration is performed to adjust the location of the object within the current frame. The histogram related to the object and the foreground map can then be updated. | 07-15-2010 |
| 20100177969 | Method and System for Image Processing to Classify an Object in an Image - In an image processing method, an object is located within an image. An area around the object is determined and divided into at least first and second portions based upon image information within the area. The object can then be classified based upon both image information in the first portion of the area and image information in the second portion of the area. | 07-15-2010 |
| 20110087794 | System and Method to Support Different Ingest and Delivery Schemes for a Content Delivery Network - In accordance with an embodiment, a method of operating a computer server includes receiving streaming media data. The streaming media data includes content fragments and a media description file, and the media description file includes metadata describing the content fragments. The method also includes storing the content fragments in a cache. | 04-14-2011 |
| 20110088076 | System and Method for Media Adaptation - A system and method for media adaptation are provided. A method for providing media to an electronic device includes receiving a request for a media with a set of characteristics, and determining if the media with the set of characteristics resides in a media storage. The method also includes if the media with the set of characteristics resides in the media storage, retrieving the media with the set of characteristics from the media storage. The method further includes if the media with the set of characteristics does not reside in the media storage, transcoding an alternate media with an alternate set of characteristics to produce a transcoded media with the set of characteristics. The method additionally includes providing the media with the set of characteristics from the media storage or the transcoded media with the set of characteristics to the electronic device. | 04-14-2011 |
| 20110119394 | System and Method for Media Content Streaming - In accordance with an embodiment, a method includes electronically receiving a media presentation description (MPD) from a network. The MPD describes multimedia content that includes alternative representations of a plurality of media types, and the MPD includes information indicative of how the alternative representations are encoded. The method also includes selecting one of the plurality of alternative representations for at least one of the plurality of media types based on information included in the MPD, requesting the selected one of the plurality of alternative representations piece-by-piece, and electronically receiving a piece of media data. | 05-19-2011 |
