Profiling activity through video surveillance
View Patent ↗Embodiments of the invention relate to profiling activity. Content is captured and keywords are identified in the captured content. In response to the keyword identification, rules associated with the keywords are identified. These rules are employed to identify and capture relevant content in real-time.
1. A method comprising:
capturing digital media content;
identifying one or more possible objects from the captured content;
associating the identified objects with any matching keyword employed in a keyword relationship, wherein the keyword is mined data;
identifying at least one media surveillance rule associated with the at least one keyword employed in the keyword relationship; and
dynamically applying the identified media surveillance rule to a surveillance system to capture data associated with the identified rule and content, including capturing digital media content.
2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising predicting one or more additional keywords based on the associated keyword, and identifying at least one additional media surveillance rule associated with the one or more additional keywords.
3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising in real-time identifying objects of interest in the captured content, including comparing the captured content against the identified keyword.
4. The method of claim 3 , further comprising calculating a degree of confidence of an association between the captured content and the identified keyword.
5. The method of claim 4 , further comprising sending an alert communication to the surveillance system when the degree of confidence exceeds a defined threshold.
6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising extracting two or more keywords from the captured content and establishing a relationship among the extracted keywords, and creating at least one new media surveillance rule based on the established relationship.
