Abstract
Techniques for detecting one or more events are provided. The techniques include using one or more regions of interest on a video sequence to cover a location for one or more events, wherein each event is associated with at least one of the one or more regions of interest, applying multiple-instance learning to the video sequence to construct one or more location-aware event models, and applying the models to the video sequence to determine the one or more regions of interest that are associated with the one or more events.
Claims25
A method for detecting one or more events, comprising the steps of:
- using one or more regions of interest on a video sequence to cover a location for one or more events, wherein each event is associated with at least one of the one or more regions of interest;
- applying multiple-instance learning to the video sequence to construct one or more location-aware event models;
- and
- applying the models to the video sequence to determine the one or more regions of interest that are associated with the one or more events.
A computer program product comprising a computer readable medium having computer readable program code for detecting one or more events, said computer program product including:
- computer readable program code for using one or more regions of interest on a video sequence to cover a location for one or more events, wherein each event is associated with at least one of the one or more regions of interest;
- computer readable program code for applying multiple-instance learning to the video sequence to construct one or more location-aware event models;
- and
- computer readable program code for applying the models to the video sequence to determine the one or more regions of interest that are associated with the one or more events.
A system for detecting one or more events, comprising:
- a memory;
- and
- at least one processor coupled to said memory and operative to:
- use one or more regions of interest on a video sequence to cover a location for one or more events, wherein each event is associated with at least one of the one or more regions of interest;
- apply multiple-instance learning to the video sequence to construct one or more location-aware event models;
- and
- apply the models to the video sequence to determine the one or more regions of interest that are associated with the one or more events.
An apparatus for detecting one or more events, said apparatus comprising:
- means for using one or more regions of interest on a video sequence to cover a location for one or more events, wherein each event is associated with at least one of the one or more regions of interest;
- means for applying multiple-instance learning to the video sequence to construct one or more location-aware event models;
- and
- means for applying the models to the video sequence to determine the one or more regions of interest that are associated with the one or more events.
