Abstract

This disclosure is directed to, in part, a processing pipeline for detecting predefined activity using image data, identifying an item-of-interest and a location of the item-of-interest across frames of the image data, determining a trajectory of the item-of-interest, and determining an identifier of the item-of-interest and an action taken with respect to the item-of-interest. The processing pipeline may utilize one or more trained classifiers and, in some instances, additional data to identify items that are placed into or removed from a tote (e.g., basket, cart, or other receptacle) by users in material handling facilities as the users move around the material handling facilities.
