AUTOMATED VISUAL INFORMATION CONTEXT AND MEANING COMPREHENSION SYSTEM
A system for analyzing images and video that is capable of recognizing, classifying, and processing the context and meaning contained therein in a manner similar to human intuitive understanding of such context and meaning. Images and video are gathered through a crowdsourcing portal, fixed cameras, and other remote sensing devices. Real world data relevant to the images and video is gathered using a deep web extraction engine. The resulting inputs are analyzed for context and meaning using machine learning algorithms, whose outputs and reviewed and adjusted by humans through a crowdsourcing portal.
1 . A system for analysis of images and video that is capable of recognizing, classifying, and processing the context and meaning contained therein in a manner similar to human intuitive understanding of such context and meaning, comprising:
an algorithm database comprising a multiplicity of algorithms for the processing and analysis of images and video; and
a crowdsourcing portal comprising at least a processor, a memory, and a plurality of programming instructions stored in the memory and operating on the processor, wherein the programming instructions, when operating on the processor, cause the processor to:
allow the collectivization of data gathering from a multiplicity of sources as input to the scene comprehension engine; and
allow individuals and groups to review and correct the context and meaning generated by the scene comprehension engine for images and video; and
a deep web extraction engine comprising at least a processor, a memory, and a plurality of programming instructions stored in the memory and operating on the processor, wherein the programming instructions, when operating on the processor, cause the processor to:
gather data from a multiplicity of sources on the internet for use by the scene comprehension engine in analyzing images and video; and
a scene comprehension engine comprising at least a processor, a memory, and a plurality of programming instructions stored in the memory and operating on the processor, wherein the programming instructions, when operating on the processor, cause the processor to:
