Stanford Team Creates Computer Vision Algorithm to Describe Photos

Computer software only recently became smart enough to recognize objects in photographs. Now, Stanford researchers using machine learning have created a system that takes the next step, writing a simple story of what’s happening in any digital image. At the heart of the Stanford system are algorithms that enable the system to improve its accuracy by scanning scene after scene, looking for patterns, then using the accumulation of previously described scenes to extrapolate what is being depicted in the next unknown image.

Google’s Latest Object Recognition Tech Can Spot Everything in Your Living Room

Automatic object recognition in images is currently tricky. Even if a computer has the help of smart algorithms and human assistants, it may not catch everything in a given scene. Google might change that soon, though; it just detailed a new detection system that can easily spot lots of objects in a scene, even if they’re partly obscured. The key is a neural network that can rapidly refine the criteria it’s looking for without requiring a lot of extra computing power.

Growing Supply Chain/Logistics Market Benefits From Video Analytics

Every year the logistics volume increases constantly, and as a result, many logistic companies are using surveillance cameras to optimize their processes. When additionally equipped with video analytic filters from companies such as RIVA, logistic workflows can become even more efficient. These intelligent cameras can be used in different areas of a logistic centre. The […]

Purdue Researchers Develop Chip With Human-Like Ability To Identify Objects And Images

At Purdue, researchers are developing a computer chip that would enable smartphones and other devices to identify objects much like the human brain does. A start-up around the technology has just been launched. Led by Eugenio Culurciello, associate professor at Purdue’s Weldon School of Biomedical Engineering, the research team has created the “nn-X” chip, giving […]

Patent Issued For Abandoned Object Recognition Using Pedestrian Detection

A patent by the inventors Brown, Feris, Kjeldsen, and Scherbaum was assigned patent number 8675917 to International Business Machines Corporation. "There is a growing demand for automated video surveillance (AVS) systems for public safety and security enhancement. While traditional video surveillance methods require constant human attention, automated visual analysis performs real-time monitoring of people, vehicles […]
