HITSENSE

April 1, 2020

Due to advances in network connectivity and the proliferation of Internet of Things (IoT) devices, the number of land vehicles equipped with devices capable of responding to variations in the external environment has increased significantly in recent years. If, on the one hand, a network of vehicles equipped with sensors provides telemetric information in real time, on the other hand, the number of information obtained in a short time can easily reach the order of millions, making it impossible for individual human analysis of all vehicles...Ler Mais

Patent Deposit – Samsung : Video Recognition Method Capable of Encoding Concept Temporal and Spatial Relations Using Contextual Information

December 11, 2019

The proposed invention aims to encode contextual information for video analysis and understanding, encoding spatial and temporal relations of objects and the main agent in a scene. The main target application of the invention is the recognition of human activity. The coding of these spatial and temporal relationships can be crucial in distinguishing different categories of human activities and can be important in helping to discriminate between different video categories for video classification, retrieval, categorization, and other video analytics applications...Ler Mais
