Download or read book Intelligent Surveillance Systems written by Huihuan Qian and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-03-19 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Surveillance systems have become increasingly popular. Full involvement of human operators has led to shortcomings, e.g. high labor cost, limited capability for multiple screens, inconsistency in long-duration, etc. Intelligent surveillance systems (ISSs) can supplement or even replace traditional ones. In ISSs, computer vision, pattern recognition, and artificial intelligence technologies are used to identify abnormal behaviours in videos. They present the development of real-time behaviour-based intelligent surveillance systems. The book focuses on the detection of individual abnormal behaviour based on learning and the analysis of dangerous crowd behaviour based on texture and optical flow. Practical systems include a real-time face classification and counting system, a surveillance robot system that utilizes video and audio information for intelligent interaction, and a robust person counting system for crowded environments.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the latest achievements of Russian scientists in the field of theory and practice of decision-making in SEMS, taking into account the information received from the sensors of its central nervous system (CNS). Recently, in the field of theory and practice of intelligent robotics systems management, the solution to the problem of SEMS type urgent task of making decisions about their expedient behavior is based on the integration of the processes of obtaining, processing and storing information, computing, control and monitoring. This enables the efficiency, reliability and safety of operation of SEMS in real time. Decision-making methods are described, both in the autonomous behavior of SEMS and in their group interaction, based on the principles of bionics, adaptability, intelligence and parallelism in information processing and computation. This book is intended for students, scientists and engineers specializing in the field of smart electromechanical systems and robotics.
Download or read book Ethics and Security Automata written by Sean Welsh and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-11-06 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Can security automata (robots and AIs) make moral decisions to apply force on humans correctly? If they can make such decisions, ought they be used to do so? Will security automata increase or decrease aggregate risk to humans? What regulation is appropriate? Addressing these important issues this book examines the political and technical challenges of the robotic use of force. The book presents accessible practical examples of the ‘machine ethics’ technology likely to be installed in military and police robots and also in civilian robots with everyday security functions such as childcare. By examining how machines can pass ‘reasonable person’ tests to demonstrate measurable levels of moral competence and display the ability to determine the ‘spirit’ as well as the ‘letter of the law’, the author builds upon existing research to define conditions under which robotic force can and ought to be used to enhance human security. The scope of the book is thus far broader than ‘shoot to kill’ decisions by autonomous weapons, and should attract readers from the fields of ethics, politics, and legal, military and international affairs. Researchers in artificial intelligence and robotics will also find it useful.

Download or read book Performance Guarantee of a Sub Optimal Policy for a Discrete Markov Decision Process and Its Application to a Robotic Surveillance Problem written by Myoungkuk Park and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation deals with the development and analysis of sub-optimal decision algorithms for a collection of robots that assist a remotely located operator in perimeter surveillance. The operator is tasked with the classification of incursions across the perimeter. Whenever there is an incursion into the perimeter, a nearby Unattended Ground Sensor (UGS) signals an alert. A robot services the alert by visiting the alert location, collecting evidence in the form of video imagery, and transmitting it to the operator. The accuracy of operator's classification depends on the volume and freshness of information gathered and provided by the robots at locations where incursions occur. There are two competing needs for a robot: it needs to spend adequate time at an alert location to collect evidence for aiding the operator in accurate classification but it also needs to service other alerts as soon as possible, so that the evidence collected is relevant. The control problem is to determine the optimal amount of time a robot must spend servicing an alert. The incursions are stochastic and their statistics are assumed to be known. The control problem may be posed as a Markov Decision Problem (MDP). Dynamic Programming(DP) provides the optimal policy to the MDP. However, because of the "curse of dimensionality" of DP, finding the optimal policy is not practical in many applications. For a perimeter surveillance problem with two robots and five UGS locations, the number of states is of the order of billions. Approximate Dynamic Programming (ADP) via Linear Programming (LP) provides a way to approximate the value function and derive sub-optimal strategies. Using state partitioning and ADP, this dissertation provides different LP formulations for upper and lower bounds to the value function of the MDP, and shows the relationship between LPs and MDP. The novel features of this dissertation are (1) the derivation of a tractable lower bound via LP and state partitioning, (2) the construction of a sub-optimal policy whose performance exceeds the lower bound, and (3) the derivation of an upper bound using a non-linear programming formuation. The upper and lower bounds provides approximation ratio to the value function. Finally, illustrative perimeter surveillance examples corroborate the results derived in this dissertation.
