Video copy detection is the process of comparing and analyzing videos to extract a measure of their similarity in order to determine if they are copies, modified versions, or completely different videos. With video frame sizes increasing rapidly, it is important to allow for a data reduction process to take place in order to achieve fast video comparisons. Further, detecting video streaming and storage of legal and illegal video data necessitates the fast and efficient implementation of video copy detection algorithms. In this paper some commonly used algorithms for video copy detection are implemented with the Log-Polar transformation being used as a pre-processing step to reduce the frame size prior to signature calculation. Two global based algorithms were chosen to validate the use of Log-Polar as an acceptable data reduction stage. The results of this research demonstrate that the addition of this pre-processing step significantly reduces the computation time of the overall video copy detection process while not significantly affecting the detection accuracy of the algorithm used for the detection process.

The article presents an overview of the theoretical and experimental work related to unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) motion parameters estimation based on the integration of video measurements obtained by the on-board optoelectronic camera and data from the UAV’s own inertial navigation system (INS). The use of various approaches described in the literature which show good characteristics in computer simulations or in fairly simple conditions close to laboratory ones demonstrates the sufficient complexity of the problems associated with adaption of camera parameters to the changing conditions of a real flight. In our experiments, we used computer simulation methods applying them to the real images and processing methods of videos obtained during real flights. For example, it was noted that the use of images that are very different in scale and in the aspect angle from the observed images in flight makes it very difficult to use the methodology of singular points. At the same time, the matching of the observed and reference images using rectilinear segments, such as images of road sections and the walls of the buildings look quite promising. In addition, in our experiments we used the projective transformation matrix computation from frame to frame, which together with the filtering estimates for the coordinate and angular velocities provides additional possibilities for estimating the UAV position. Data on the UAV position determining based on the methods of video navigation obtained during real flights are presented. New approaches to video navigation obtained using the methods of conjugation rectilinear segments, characteristic curvilinear elements and segmentation of textured and colored regions are demonstrated. Also the application of the method of calculating projective transformations from frame-to-frame is shown which gives estimates of the displacements and rotations of the apparatus and thereby serves to the UAV position estimation by filtering. Thus, the aim of the work was to analyze various approaches to UAV navigation using video data as an additional source of information about the position and velocity of the vehicle.

License Plate Readers

Video license plate surveys have been used for more than a decade in Indiana to help produce origin-destination tables in corridors and small areas. In video license plate surveys, license plate images are captured on videotape for data reduction at the analyst’s office. In most cases, the letters and numbers on a license plate are manually transcribed to a data file. This manual process is tedious, time-consuming, and expensive. Although automated license plate readers are being implemented with success elsewhere, their dependence on high-end equipment makes them too expensive for most applications in Indiana. Presented are the results of an attempt to use standard video cameras and tapes, readily available video processing equipment, and open-source software to minimize the human role in the data reduction process and thus reduce the expenses involved. The process of automatically transcribing video data can be divided into subprocesses. Analog video data are digitized and stored on a computer hard disk. The resulting digital images are further processed, by using image-processing algorithms, to locate and extract the license plate and time stamp information. Character recognition techniques can then be applied to read the license plate number into an electronic file for the desired analysis. The described video license plate data reduction (VLPDR) software can identify video frames that contain vehicles and discard the remaining frames. VLPDR can locate and read the time stamps in most of these frames. Although VLPDR cannot read the license plate numbers into a data file, this final step is made easier by a user-friendly graphical user interface. VLPDR saves a significant amount of manual data reduction. The amount of labor saved depends on the parameters chosen by the user.

Under the impact of COVID-19, research on behavior recognition are highly needed. In this paper, we combine the algorithm of self-adaptive coder and recurrent neural network to realize the research of behavior pattern recognition. At present, most of the research of human behavior recognition is focused on the video data, which is based on the video number. At the same time, due to the complexity of video image data, it is easy to violate personal privacy. With the rapid development of Internet of things technology, it has attracted the attention of a large number of experts and scholars. Researchers have tried to use many machine learning methods, such as random forest, support vector machine and other shallow learning methods, which perform well in the laboratory environment, but there is still a long way to go from practical application. In this paper, a recursive neural network algorithm based on long and short term memory (LSTM) is proposed to realize the recognition of behavior patterns, so as to improve the accuracy of human activity behavior recognition.
