摘要： A method and system for analyzing product strength or brand strength by determining shopper decision behavior during a shopping trip. Specifically, shopper behavior can be analyzed to determine whether a shopper's decision to purchase an item occurred at-shelf or pre-shelf. Aggregating decision data across many shoppers over time can then be used to generate analytics regarding the strength of a product or brand. The analysis can then be used to make recommendations to manufacturers or retailers about how to strengthen the product or brand. A deployment of cameras and mobile signal sensors can be utilized to recognize shoppers and track their behavior. Demographics information can also be estimated about the tracked shoppers. The visual and mobile signal trajectories can be fused to form a single shopper trajectory, then associated with Point of Sale (PoS) data. This results in a dataset describing the shopping trip for each tracked shopper.

摘要： The present invention provides a comprehensive method for automatically and unobtrusively analyzing the in-store behavior of people visiting a physical space using a multi-modal fusion based on multiple types of sensors. The types of sensors employed may include cameras for capturing a plurality of images and mobile signal sensors for capturing a plurality of Wi-Fi signals. The present invention integrates the plurality of input sensor measurements to reliably and persistently track the people's physical attributes and detect the people's interactions with retail elements. The physical and contextual attributes collected from the processed shopper tracks includes the motion dynamics changes triggered by an implicit and explicit interaction to a retail element, comprising the behavior information for the trip of the people. The present invention integrates point-of-sale transaction data with the shopper behavior by finding and associating the transaction data that corresponds to a shopper trajectory and fusing them to generate a complete an intermediate representation of a shopper trip data, called a TripVector. The shopper behavior analyses are carried out based on the extracted TripVector. The analyzed behavior information for the shopper trips yields exemplary behavior analysis comprising map generation as visualization of the behavior, quantitative shopper metric derivation in multiple scales (e.g., store-wide and category-level) including path-to-purchase shopper metrics (e.g., traffic distribution, shopping action distribution, buying action distribution, conversion funnel), category dynamics (e.g., dominant path, category correlation, category sequence). The present invention includes a set of derived methods for different sensor configurations.

摘要： The present invention is a method and system for characterizing physical space based on automatic demographics measurement, using a plurality of means for capturing images and a plurality of computer vision technologies. The present invention is called demographic-based retail space characterization (DBR). Although the disclosed method is described in the context of retail space, the present invention can be applied to any physical space that has a restricted boundary. In the present invention, the physical space characterization can comprise various types of characterization depending on the objective of the physical space, and it is one of the objectives of the present invention to provide the automatic demographic composition measurement to facilitate the physical space characterization. The demographic classification and composition measurement of people in the physical space is performed automatically based on a novel usage of a plurality of means for capturing images and a plurality of computer vision technologies on the captured visual information of the people in the physical space. The plurality of computer vision technologies can comprise face detection, person tracking, body parts detection, and demographic classification of the people, on the captured visual information of the people in the physical space.

摘要： The invention is a method for detecting events in an imaged scene by analyzing the occlusion of linear features in the background image. Linear features, curved or straight, in specific scene locations are either manually specified or automatically learned from an image or image sequence of the background scene. For each linear feature, an occlusion model determines whether the line or part of it is occluded. The locations of the lines of interest in the scene, together with their occlusion characterizations, collectively form a description of the scene for a particular image. An event, defined as a series of descriptions of the scene over an image sequence, can then be initially defined and subsequently detected automatically by the system. An example application of this is counting cars or people passing in front of a video camera.

摘要： The present invention is a system and method for detecting and analyzing motion patterns of individuals present at a multimedia computer terminal from a stream of video frames generated by a video camera and the method of providing visual feedback of the extracted information to aid the interaction process between a user and the system. The method allows multiple people to be present in front of the computer terminal and yet allow one active user to make selections on the computer display. Thus the invention can be used as method for contact-free human-computer interaction in a public place, where the computer terminal can be positioned in a variety of configurations including behind a transparent glass window or at a height or location where the user cannot touch the terminal physically.

摘要： A method and system for creating an anonymous shopper panel based on multi-modal sensor data fusion. The anonymous shopper panel can serve as the same traditional shopper panel who reports their household information, such as household size, income level, demographics, etc., and their purchase history, yet without any voluntary participation. A configuration of vision sensors and mobile access points can be used to detect and track shoppers as they travel a retail environment. Fusion of those modalities can be used to form a trajectory. The trajectory data can then be associated with Point of Sale data to form a full set of shopper behavior data. Shopper behavior data for a particular visit can then be compared to data from previous shoppers' visits to determine if the shopper is a revisiting shopper. The shopper's data can then be aggregated for multiple visits to the retail location. The aggregated shopper data can be filtered using application-specific criteria to create an anonymous shopper panel.

摘要： A method and system for associating an image of a face of at least a person with Point-of-Sale (PoS) data by aligning a first event time series with a second event time series based on a dynamic time disparity. An exemplary embodiment can generate an event time series containing facial recognition data for a person or persons during the PoS transaction process. These data can form a vision-based checkout event time series. An embodiment can also collect PoS transaction data from the retail checkout system, using timestamp information to create a second event time series. As there may be a time disparity between the time series, they can then be aligned in order to match events from one time series to the other. Faces identified in checkout events in the first time series can be registered to PoS events and the results stored in a database.

摘要： A connecting block includes a first member having a flow header extending from a sealing surface, a planar end face oppositely directed with respect to the sealing surface, and a perimeter wall angularly oriented with respect to the sealing surface. A second member is slidably received within the perimeter wall of the first member and has a flow member receiving bore axially aligned with the flow header. A bonding zone is created by heating both the first and second members until the planar end face and the planar interior face join together to create a physical connection between the first and second members. A material of the second member is corrosively sacrificial with respect to a material of the first member.
