With the increasing prevalence of video cameras in modern day society, suspicious/unusual object activity recognition from security video is an active research and development area in the field of video analytics and computer vision. Through installation of a system of video cameras, object activities can be monitored in sensitive and public areas (such as bus stations, railway stations, airports, banks, shopping malls, school and colleges, parking lots, roads, etcetera) to prevent terrorism, theft, accidents and illegal parking, vandalism, fighting, chain snatching, crime and other suspicious or unusual activities. It may be difficult and expensive to watch public places continuously. Thus, artificial intelligence-powered video security solutions are becoming a more and more compelling security-related investment directed towards the monitoring of object activities, and also the selective categorizing of those object activities as usual/non-suspicious or unusual/suspicious.

Examples of objects also include static objects such as, for instance, buildings, roads, fixtures, etcetera.
Further advantages and features consistent with this disclosure will be set forth in the following detailed description, with reference to the figures.
Referring now to the drawings, and in particular
The computer terminal 104 communicates with the server system 108 through one or more networks. These networks can include the Internet, or one or more other public/private networks coupled together by network switches or other communication elements. The network(s) could be of the form of, for example, client-server networks, peer-to-peer networks, etc. Data connections between the computer terminal 104 and the server system 108 can be any number of known arrangements for accessing a data communications network, such as, for example, dial-up Serial Line Interface Protocol/Point-to-Point Protocol (SLIP/PPP), Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN), dedicated lease line service, broadband (e.g. cable) access, Digital Subscriber Line (DSL), Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM), Frame Relay, or other known access techniques (for example, radio frequency (RF) links). In at least one example embodiment, the computer terminal 104 and the server system 108 are within the same Local Area Network (LAN).
The computer terminal 104 includes at least one processor 112 that controls the overall operation of the computer terminal. The processor 112 interacts with various subsystems such as, for example, input devices 114 (such as a selected one or more of a keyboard, mouse, touch pad, roller ball and voice control means, for example), random access memory (RAM) 116, non-volatile storage 120, display controller subsystem 124 and other subsystems. The display controller subsystem 124 interacts with display 126 and it renders graphics and/or text upon the display 126.
Still with reference to the computer terminal 104 of the security system 100, operating system 140 and various software applications used by the processor 112 are stored in the non-volatile storage 120. The non-volatile storage 120 is, for example, one or more hard disks, solid state drives, or some other suitable form of computer readable medium that retains recorded information after the computer terminal 104 is turned off. Regarding the operating system 140, this includes software that manages computer hardware and software resources of the computer terminal 104 and provides common services for computer programs. Also, those skilled in the art will appreciate that the operating system 140, Video Management System (VMS) application 144, and other applications 152, or parts thereof, may be temporarily loaded into a volatile store such as the RAM 116. The processor 112, in addition to its operating system functions, can enable execution of the various software applications on the computer terminal 104.
Regarding the VMS application 144, this can be run on the computer terminal 104 and may include a search User Interface (UI) module for cooperation with a search session manager module in order to enable a computer terminal user to carry out actions related to providing input in relation images, live video and video recordings (such as, for example, input to facilitate annotating or selectively exporting video footage captured by one or more video security cameras, providing responses to alerts in relation to unusual/suspicious activities, etcetera). Also, regarding the aforementioned search session manager module, this provides a communications interface between the search UI module and a VMS query manager module 164 of the server system 108. In at least some examples, the search session manager module communicates with the VMS query manager module 164 through the use of Remote Procedure Calls (RPCs). The VMS query manager module 164 receives and processes queries originating from the computer terminal 104, which may facilitate retrieval and delivery of various sorts of data and metadata as herein later described in more detail. In this regard, the VMS query manager module 164 is communicatively coupled to an at least one storage device 190 (described later herein in more detail).
Referring once again to
The server system 108 also includes a number of other software components 176. These other software components will vary depending on the requirements of the server system 108 within the overall system. As just one example, the other software components 176 might include special test and debugging software, or software to facilitate version updating of modules within the server system 108.
Regarding the at least one storage device 190, this comprises, for example, one or more databases 191 which may facilitate the organized storing of recorded security video, non-video sensor data, etcetera in accordance with example embodiments. The one or more databases 191 may also contain metadata related to, for example, the recorded security video that is storable within one or more storages. The one or more databases 191 may also contain other types of metadata besides video metadata. Examples of metadata other than video metadata, that may be stored in the one or more databases 191, include audio metadata, GPS location metadata, etcetera. In some examples, the at least one storage device 190 may store a plurality of unusual activity models for a respective some or all of video cameras within the security system 100. These unusual activity models may be derived from, for example, historical metadata of activities of moving objects in captured video. Unusual activity models may inform as to normal and unusual characteristics for movement and appearance/disappearance of objects including, for example, normal speed (e.g. normal range) of certain typical objects of interest, normal direction (e.g. normal direction) of the certain typical objects of interest, etcetera.
The illustrated security system 100 includes a plurality of camera devices 1031-103n (hereinafter interchangeably referred to as “cameras 1031-103n” when referring to all of the illustrated cameras, or “camera 103” when referring to any individual one of the plurality) being operable to capture a plurality of images and produce image data representing the plurality of captured images. The camera 103 is an image capturing device and includes security video cameras. Furthermore, it will be understood that the security system 100 includes any suitable number of cameras (i.e. n is any suitable integer greater than one).
The camera 103 includes an image sensor 109 for capturing a plurality of images. The camera 103 may be a digital video camera and the image sensor 109 may output captured light as a digital data. For example, the image sensor 109 may be a CMOS, NMOS, or Charge-Couple Device (CCD). In some embodiments, the camera 103 may be an analog camera connected to an encoder. The illustrated camera 103 may be a 2D camera; however use of a structured light 3D camera, a time-of-flight 3D camera, a 3D Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) device, a stereo camera, or any other suitable type of camera within the security system 100 is contemplated.
The image sensor 109 may be operable to capture light in one or more frequency ranges. For example, the image sensor 109 may be operable to capture light in a range that substantially corresponds to the visible light frequency range. In other examples, the image sensor 109 may be operable to capture light outside the visible light range, such as in the infrared and/or ultraviolet range. In other examples, the camera 103 may have similarities to a “multi-sensor” type of camera, such that the camera 103 includes pairs of two or more sensors that are operable to capture light in different and/or same frequency ranges.
The camera 103 may be a dedicated camera. It will be understood that a dedicated camera herein refers to a camera whose principal features is to capture images or video. In some example embodiments, the dedicated camera may perform functions associated with the captured images or video, such as but not limited to processing the image data produced by it or by another camera. For example, the dedicated camera may be a security camera, such as any one of a pan-tilt-zoom camera, dome camera, in-ceiling camera, box camera, and bullet camera.
Additionally, or alternatively, the camera 103 may include an embedded camera. It will be understood that an embedded camera herein refers to a camera that is embedded within a device that is operational to perform functions that are unrelated to the captured image or video. For example, the embedded camera may be a camera found on any one of a laptop, tablet, drone device, smartphone, physical access control device, video game console or controller.
The camera 103 includes one or more processors 113, one or more video analytics modules 119, and one or more memory devices 115 coupled to the processors and one or more network interfaces. Regarding the video analytics module 119, this generates metadata outputted to the server system 108. The metadata can include, for example, records which describe various detections of objects such as, for instance, pixel locations for a detected moving object in respect of a first record and a last record for the camera within which the respective metadata is being generated.
Also, it is contemplated that the camera 103 may have different operational modes. For instance, operation of the camera 103 may, after initial installation, be set or default to a learning mode associated with building an unusual activity model for that camera. Later, after the unusual activity model is built, the camera may then enter into a normal/established mode of operation. In some examples, the learning mode lasts two weeks. In other example, the learning mode is any suitable amount of time that may be greater or less than two weeks.
Regarding the memory device 115 within the camera 103, this can include a local memory (such as, for example, a random access memory and a cache memory) employed during execution of program instructions. Regarding the processor 113, this executes computer program instructions (such as, for example, an operating system and/or software programs), which can be stored in the memory device 115.
In various embodiments the processor 113 may be implemented by any suitable processing circuit having one or more circuit units, including a digital signal processor (DSP), graphics processing unit (GPU) embedded processor, a visual processing unit or a vison processing unit (both referred to herein as “VPU”), etc., and any suitable combination thereof operating independently or in parallel, including possibly operating redundantly. Such processing circuit may be implemented by one or more integrated circuits (IC), including being implemented by a monolithic integrated circuit (MIC), an Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC), a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA), etc. or any suitable combination thereof. Additionally or alternatively, such processing circuit may be implemented as a programmable logic controller (PLC), for example. The processor may include circuitry for storing memory, such as digital data, and may comprise the memory circuit or be in wired communication with the memory circuit, for example. A system on a chip (SOC) implementation is also common, where a plurality of the components of the camera 103, including the processor 113, may be combined together on one semiconductor chip. For example, the processor 113, the memory device 115 and the network interface of the camera 103 may be implemented within a SOC. Furthermore, when implemented in this way, a general purpose processor and one or more of a GPU or VPU, and a DSP may be implemented together within the SOC.
In various example embodiments, the memory device 115 coupled to the processor 113 is operable to store data and computer program instructions. The memory device 115 may be implemented as Read-Only Memory (ROM), Programmable Read-Only Memory (PROM), Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory (EPROM), Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory (EEPROM), flash memory, one or more flash drives, universal serial bus (USB) connected memory units, magnetic storage, optical storage, magneto-optical storage, etc. or any combination thereof, for example. The memory device 115 may be operable to store in memory (including store in volatile memory, non-volatile memory, dynamic memory, etc. or any combination thereof).
Continuing with
The one or more secondary data sources 196 may be external or internal to the illustrated security system 100. The secondary data sources 196 may include storage devices that store various types of secondary data as described in more detail subsequently herein. In some example, the secondary data sources may be in the cloud and/or located in third party systems, auxiliary systems, etc.
In some examples, the secondary data sources 196 are coupled to the server system 108 via one or more suitable networks. These networks can include the Internet, or one or more other public/private networks coupled together by network switches or other communication elements. The network(s) could be of the form of, for example, client-server networks, peer-to-peer networks, etc. Data connections between the secondary data sources 196 and the server system 108 can be any number of known arrangements, examples of which were previously herein detailed. In at least one example embodiment, the secondary data sources 196 and the server system 108 are within the same Local Area Network (LAN). In some examples, the secondary data sources 196 may be coupled to the server system 108 in a more direct manner than as described above.

The fixed video camera 3101 has a Field Of View (FOV) 314 (region in between two illustrated lines that extend from the fixed video camera 3101) and a respective “first unusual activity model”. Within the FOV 314 are various static objects including “Family Mart” store 316, “Lot 10” 318, uni-directional traffic road 320, bi-directional traffic road 322, the fixed video camera 3102 (assuming it has a housing large enough to be detected) and bus stop 324.

Thus, the bi-directional traffic road 322 is a static object that appears in both the FOV 314 of the fixed video cameras 3101 and the FOV 330 of the fixed video camera 3102. In particular, a first part of the bi-directional traffic road 322 is visible within the FOV 314, and a second (different) part of the bi-directional traffic road 322 is visible within the FOV 330.

In respect of example embodiment of
In some examples, the new unusual activity model is built from more than one partial FOVs of existing and established unusual activity model of more than one respective other cameras. In some examples, a similarity score is determined (for instance, a similarity score as between the relevant FOV of the fixed video camera 3103 and the relevant FOV of the fixed video camera 3102. If a threshold is exceeded in respect of the similarity score than the new unusual activity model for the new fixed video camera may be based at least almost entirely on the existing and established unusual activity model of the older fixed video camera.
As should be apparent from this detailed description, the operations and functions of the electronic computing device are sufficiently complex as to require their implementation on a computer system, and cannot be performed, as a practical matter, in the human mind. Electronic computing devices such as set forth herein are understood as requiring and providing speed and accuracy and complexity management that are not obtainable by human mental steps, in addition to the inherently digital nature of such operations (e.g., a human mind cannot interface directly with RAM or other digital storage, cannot transmit or receive electronic messages, electronically encoded video, electronically encoded audio, etcetera, and cannot generate, modify and/or employ unusual activity models for fixed video cameras, among other features and functions set forth herein).
In the foregoing specification, specific embodiments have been described. However, one of ordinary skill in the art appreciates that various modifications and changes can be made without departing from the scope of the invention as set forth in the claims below. Accordingly, the specification and figures are to be regarded in an illustrative rather than a restrictive sense, and all such modifications are intended to be included within the scope of present teachings. The benefits, advantages, solutions to problems, and any element(s) that may cause any benefit, advantage, or solution to occur or become more pronounced are not to be construed as a critical, required, or essential features or elements of any or all the claims. The invention is defined solely by the appended claims including any amendments made during the pendency of this application and all equivalents of those claims as issued.
Moreover in this document, relational terms such as first and second, top and bottom, and the like may be used solely to distinguish one entity or action from another entity or action without necessarily requiring or implying any actual such relationship or order between such entities or actions. The terms “comprises,” “comprising,” “has”, “having,” “includes”, “including,” “contains”, “containing” or any other variation thereof, are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises, has, includes, contains a list of elements does not include only those elements but may include other elements not expressly listed or inherent to such process, method, article, or apparatus. An element proceeded by “comprises . . . a”, “has . . . a”, “includes . . . a”, “contains . . . a” does not, without more constraints, preclude the existence of additional identical elements in the process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises, has, includes, contains the element. The terms “a” and “an” are defined as one or more unless explicitly stated otherwise herein. The terms “substantially”, “essentially”, “approximately”, “about” or any other version thereof, are defined as being close to as understood by one of ordinary skill in the art, and in one non-limiting embodiment the term is defined to be within 10%, in another embodiment within 5%, in another embodiment within 1% and in another embodiment within 0.5%. The term “one of”, without a more limiting modifier such as “only one of”, and when applied herein to two or more subsequently defined options such as “one of A and B” should be construed to mean an existence of any one of the options in the list alone (e.g., A alone or B alone) or any combination of two or more of the options in the list (e.g., A and B together).
A device or structure that is “configured” in a certain way is configured in at least that way, but may also be configured in ways that are not listed.
The terms “coupled”, “coupling” or “connected” as used herein can have several different meanings depending in the context in which these terms are used. For example, the terms coupled, coupling, or connected can have a mechanical or electrical connotation. For example, as used herein, the terms coupled, coupling, or connected can indicate that two elements or devices are directly connected to one another or connected to one another through an intermediate elements or devices via an electrical element, electrical signal or a mechanical element depending on the particular context.
It will be appreciated that some embodiments may be comprised of one or more generic or specialized processors (or “processing devices”) such as microprocessors, digital signal processors, customized processors and field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) and unique stored program instructions (including both software and firmware) that control the one or more processors to implement, in conjunction with certain non-processor circuits, some, most, or all of the functions of the method and/or apparatus described herein. Alternatively, some or all functions could be implemented by a state machine that has no stored program instructions, or in one or more application specific integrated circuits (ASICs), in which each function or some combinations of certain of the functions are implemented as custom logic. Of course, a combination of the two approaches could be used.
Moreover, an embodiment can be implemented as a computer-readable storage medium having computer readable code stored thereon for programming a computer (e.g., comprising a processor) to perform a method as described and claimed herein. Any suitable computer-usable or computer readable medium may be utilized.

For example, computer program code for carrying out operations of various example embodiments may be written in an object oriented programming language such as Java, Smalltalk, C++, Python, or the like. However, the computer program code for carrying out operations of various example embodiments may also be written in conventional procedural programming languages, such as the “C” programming language or similar programming languages. The program code may execute entirely on a computer, partly on the computer, as a stand-alone software package, partly on the computer and partly on a remote computer or server or entirely on the remote computer or server. In the latter scenario, the remote computer or server may be connected to the computer through a local area network (LAN) or a wide area network (WAN), or the connection may be made to an external computer (for example, through the Internet using an Internet Service Provider).
