Abstract

An analytical recognition system is includes a video camera configured to capture video data of a subject and an antenna configured to capture mobile communication device data relating to a mobile communication device of the subject. The system further includes a data analytics module configured to: analyze the video data to determine at least one of a physical attribute or a movement attribute of the subject and generate; generate a first certainty match value based on the at least one of the physical attribute or the movement attribute of the subject; and perform a facial recognition analysis of the subject to obtain facial recognition data. The data analytics module is further configured to generate a second certainty match value based on the facial recognition data; generate a third certainty match value based on the mobile communication device data; and generate a combined certainty match value based on the first certainty match value, the second certainty match value, and the third certainty match value.

Claims (36)

1. An analytical recognition system, comprising:

a video camera configured to capture video data of a person;

an antenna configured to capture mobile communication device data relating to a mobile communication device of the person; and

a data analytics module configured to:

analyze the video data to determine at least one of a physical attribute or a movement attribute of the person;

generate a first certainty match value based on the at least one of the physical attribute or the movement attribute of the person;

perform a facial recognition analysis of the person to obtain facial recognition data;

generate a second certainty match value based on the facial recognition data;

generate a third certainty match value based on the mobile communication device data; and

generate a combined certainty match value based on the first certainty match value, the second certainty match value, and the third certainty match value.

2. The analytical recognition system according to claim 1 , wherein the video camera is at least one of a traffic camera or an aerial drone camera.

3. The analytical recognition system according to claim 1 , wherein the data analytics module is further configured to access:

an attributes database storing a plurality of person identities and corresponding attributes;

a facial database storing a plurality of person identities and corresponding facial recognition datasets; and

a device database storing a plurality of person identities and corresponding mobile communication devices.

4. The analytical recognition system according to claim 1 , wherein the data analytics module is further configured to compare the combined certainty match to a certainty threshold and to output a positive match in response to the combined certainty match exceeding the certainty threshold.

5. The analytical recognition system of claim 1 , wherein the captured video data includes at least one of a captured still image and video footage.

6. The analytical recognition system of claim 1 , wherein the mobile communication device data includes at least one of a WiFi identifier, a media access control (MAC) identifier, a Bluetooth identifier, a cellular identifier, a near field communication identifier, and a radio frequency identifier associated with a mobile communication device in communication with the antenna.

7. A method for analytical recognition of persons, the method comprising:

capturing video data of a person from a video camera;

capturing mobile communication device data relating to a mobile communication device of the person from an antenna;

analyzing the video data to determine at least one of a physical attribute or a movement attribute of the person;

generating a first certainty match value based on the at least one of the physical attribute or the movement attribute of the person;

performing a facial recognition analysis of the person to obtain facial recognition data;

generating a second certainty match value based on the facial recognition data;

generating a third certainty match value based on the mobile communication device data; and

generating a combined certainty match value based on the first certainty match value, the second certainty match value, and the third certainty match value.

8. The method according to claim 7 , wherein the video camera is at least one of a traffic camera or an aerial drone camera.

9. The method according to claim 7 , further comprising:

accessing an attributes database storing a plurality of person identities and corresponding attributes;

accessing a facial database storing a plurality of person identities and corresponding facial recognition datasets; and

accessing a device database storing a plurality of person identities and corresponding mobile communication devices.

10. The method according to claim 7 , further comprising:

comparing the combined certainty match to a certainty threshold and to output a positive match in response to the combined certainty match exceeding the certainty threshold.

11. The method according to claim 7 , wherein the captured video data includes at least one of a captured still image and video footage.

12. The method according to claim 7 , wherein the mobile communication device data includes at least one of a WiFi identifier, a media access control (MAC) identifier, a Bluetooth identifier, a cellular identifier, a near field communication identifier, and a radio frequency identifier associated with a mobile communication device in communication with the antenna.
