Abstract

Computerized techniques for real-time object detection from video data include: defining an analysis profile comprising an initial number of analysis cycles dedicated to each of a plurality of detectors, each detector being independently configured to detect objects according to a unique set of analysis parameters; receiving a plurality of frames of digital video data, the digital video data depicting an object; analyzing the plurality of frames using the plurality of detectors and in accordance with the analysis profile, wherein analyzing the plurality of frames produces an analysis result for each of the plurality of detectors; determining a confidence score for each of the analysis results; and updating the analysis profile by adjusting the number of analysis cycles dedicated to at least one of the plurality of detectors based on the confidence scores. Corresponding systems and computer program products are also disclosed.
