摘要： The present invention is a system, method, and apparatus for determining the impact of crowding on retail performance based on a measurement for behavior patterns of people in a store area. The present invention captures a plurality of input images of the people by at least a means for capturing images, such as cameras, in the store area. In the captured plurality of input images, each person's shopping path is detected by a video analytics-based tracking algorithm. A subset of the people is identified as a crowd in the store area. In relation to the crowd, the behavior patterns of the target person are measured. After aggregating the measurements for the behavior patterns over a predefined window of time, the present invention can calculate a crowd index and a crowd impact index for the store area based on the measurements. A crowd index shows the level of crowd density in the store area caused by a crowd, including traffic count of the crowd in the store area. A crowd impact index comprises a traffic count of the target people who make trips to the store area and a shopping time index, such as average shopping time changes of the target people, in relation to a crowd in the measured store area.

摘要： The present invention is a system and method for estimating the age of people based on their facial images. It addresses the difficulty of annotating the age of a person from facial image by utilizing relative age (such as older than, or younger than) and face-based class similarity (gender, ethnicity or appearance-based cluster) of sampled pair-wise facial images. It involves a unique method for the pair-wise face training and a learning machine (or multiple learning machines) which output the relative age along with the face-based class similarity, of the pairwise facial images. At the testing stage, the given input face image is paired with some number of reference images to be fed to the trained machines. The age of the input face is determined by comparing the estimated relative ages of the pairwise facial images to the ages of reference face images. Because age comparison is more meaningful when the pair belongs to the same demographics category (such as gender and ethnicity) or when the pair has similar appearance, the estimated relative ages are weighted according to the face-based class similarity score between the reference face and the input face.

摘要： The present invention is a method and system for storing videos by track sequences and selection of video segments in a manner to support “re-mining” by indexing and playback of individual visitors' entire trip to an area covered by overlapping cameras, allowing analysis and recognition of detailed behavior. The present invention captures video streams of the people in the area by multiple cameras and tracks the people in each of the video streams, producing track sequences in each video stream. Using the track sequences, the present invention finds trip information of the people. The present invention determines a first set of video segments that contain the trip information of the people, and compacts each of the video streams by removing a second set of video segments that do not contain the trip information of the people from each of the video streams. The video segments in the first set of video segments are associated with the people by indexing the video segments per person based on the trip information. The final storage format of the videos is a trip-centered format which sequences videos from across multiple cameras in a manner to facilitate multiple applications dealing with behavior analysis, and it is an efficient compact format without losing any video segments that contain the track sequences of the people.

摘要： The present invention is a method and system to provide an automatic measurement of people's responses to dynamic digital media, based on changes in their facial expressions and attention to specific content. First, the method detects and tracks faces from the audience. It then localizes each of the faces and facial features to extract emotion-sensitive features of the face by applying emotion-sensitive feature filters, to determine the facial muscle actions of the face based on the extracted emotion-sensitive features. The changes in facial muscle actions are then converted to the changes in affective state, called an emotion trajectory. On the other hand, the method also estimates eye gaze based on extracted eye images and three-dimensional facial pose of the face based on localized facial images. The gaze direction of the person, is estimated based on the estimated eye gaze and the three-dimensional facial pose of the person. The gaze target on the media display is then estimated based on the estimated gaze direction and the position of the person. Finally, the response of the person to the dynamic digital media content is determined by analyzing the emotion trajectory in relation to the time and screen positions of the specific digital media sub-content that the person is watching.
