Description

  The present invention relates to a setting device, a setting method, and a program.

Security monitoring systems include systems that automatically detect intruders and track moving objects by having an advanced image or sound recognition function. Such a monitoring system includes a system that distributes recognition results via a network in addition to video and audio from a camera. In such a monitoring system, first, a plurality of recognition parameters such as a plurality of change detection process target areas, change detection sensitivity, a reaction area for the change detection process target area, and a reaction time are set in the camera from the client via the network. . Then, the camera delivers the result of the recognition process using each parameter to the client.
In the above monitoring system, it is difficult to properly set a plurality of recognition parameters based only on the recognition result of the presence or absence of an intruding object, so by installing a recognition means equivalent to a camera on the client that sets the recognition function, These problems were solved. For example, by using the recognition parameter value whose setting is being changed in the client recognition unit, and using the recognition parameter value that has already been set in the camera recognition unit, setting without affecting the processing result in the camera at all. It is also possible to preview the processing result after the change.

  Here, Patent Document 1 discloses a system that automatically detects an intruder and tracks a moving object. Patent Document 2 discloses a system in which a plurality of recognition parameters can be appropriately set by mounting a recognition unit equivalent to a camera on a client that sets a recognition function.

Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 11-041589 Japanese Patent No. 4208595

  However, in a system that distributes video and audio via a network as disclosed in Patent Document 2, data that is irreversibly compressed by a camera is generally distributed, decoded by a client, and reproduced. Therefore, even if the same recognition means is installed in the client and the camera, the difference in information amount between the uncompressed data input to the camera recognition means and the once compressed data input to the client recognition means May become larger. Furthermore, there may be a case where the frame rate of the video received by the client becomes lower than the frame rate input to the recognition unit of the camera due to the limitation of the communication band. As described above, even if the same recognition means is installed in the camera and the client, the processing result previewed during the setting change and the processing result after the setting change may be misaligned.

  The present invention has been made in view of such a problem, and an object thereof is to eliminate a deviation between a processing result previewed during a setting change and a processing result after the setting change.

Therefore, a setting device according to the present invention is a setting device communicable with an information processing device and a viewer that outputs image data, the input unit inputting at least one of video and audio as input data, and the input data The object parameter recognition process is performed by applying the recognition parameter value of the first rule stored in the storage device, and the recognition parameter value may be different from the first rule stored in the storage device. a recognition processing unit that performs recognition processing of the object by applying the recognition parameter values of a rule, the result of the recognition processing of the object by said recognition processing means being applied recognized parameter value with respect to the input data of the second rule the and first transmission means for transmitting the viewer was performed to change the recognition parameter values of the second rule, received at the information processing apparatus When the recognition parameter value changed in response to the changed change operation is received, the update means for updating the recognition parameter value of the first rule with the received recognition parameter value, and the first updated by the update means A second transmission unit that transmits a result of object recognition processing by the recognition processing unit to which the recognition parameter value of the rule is applied to the input data to the information processing device; and a recognition parameter value of the first rule.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In the first embodiment, a system capable of previewing a recognition result while viewing a live video being shot by a camera will be described. In the second embodiment, a recognition result is viewed while viewing a video recorded in the past. A system capable of previewing will be described.

(First embodiment)
FIG. 1 is a diagram illustrating an example of a configuration of a network camera system according to the present embodiment.
The camera is an example of a setting device (computer), and includes an imaging unit 1100, a compression unit 1200, a communication unit 1300, a recognition processing unit 1400, a control unit 1500, and a microphone 1600. The imaging unit 1100 captures an image. The microphone 1600 captures sound. The recognition processing unit 1400 receives at least one of captured video and audio (an example of input data) and outputs a processing result (recognition result metadata). The compression unit 1200 compresses the captured video and audio into a data format that can be easily distributed to the network. The communication unit 1300 is configured to be communicable with various devices, distributes video / audio data to the network 5000, and transmits and receives various data. The control unit 1500 controls each unit in the camera.

  The recognition processing unit 1400 includes a common processing unit 1410 and a rule-based processing unit 1420. The common processing unit 1410 outputs a common processing result. The rule-by-rule processing unit 1420 holds a plurality of types of recognition parameters related to recognition processing as rules for each value combination, and outputs a processing result for each rule. Here, the rules held by the rule processing unit 1420 include a first rule 1421 and second rules 1422, 1423, and 1424. The first rule 1421 is a rule for previewing the processing result (recognition result) after the setting change. The second rules 1422, 1423, and 1424 are rules (for outputting recognition results) for distributing processing results to general clients such as viewers and recording software. The rule-specific processing unit 1420 outputs a processing result corresponding to each rule.

The setting client is an example of an information processing apparatus (computer), and includes a communication unit 2100, an expansion unit 2200, a control unit 2300, a recognition parameter setting unit 2400, a recognition result development unit 2500, and a display reproduction unit 2600. The With this configuration, the setting client changes the setting of the recognition parameter value of the recognition parameter in the recognition processing unit 1400 of the camera.
The communication unit 2100 transmits / receives data to / from the camera. The decompressing unit 2200 decompresses video / audio data received from the camera. The control unit 2300 controls each unit of the setting client. The recognition parameter setting unit 2400 receives the input of the recognition parameter value by the user and converts the received recognition parameter value into a format that can be transmitted to the camera. The display / playback unit 2600 displays a GUI and plays back expanded video and audio. The recognition result expansion unit 2500 expands the processing result received from the camera and generates data to be displayed (or reproduced) by the display reproduction unit 2600. Here, the recognition result expansion unit 2500 expands the processing result 2510 according to the first rule that is processed and output according to the first rule 1421 by the rule-by-rule processing unit 1420 of the camera recognition processing unit 1400.

  The viewer has substantially the same configuration as the setting client, and includes a communication unit 3100, an expansion unit 3200, a control unit 3300, a recognition result development unit 3400, and a display reproduction unit 3500. However, since the recognition parameter value is not set in the viewer, the viewer does not have a recognition parameter setting unit. Further, the recognition result expansion unit 3400 expands the processing result 3410 based on the second rule processed and output according to the second rules 1422, 1423 and 1424 by the rule-by-rule processing unit 1420 of the camera recognition processing unit 1400.

The recording server includes a communication unit 4100, a recording unit 4200, a control unit 4300, and a recognition result development unit 4400. With this configuration, the recording server records video / audio data received from the camera.
The communication unit 4100 transmits / receives data to / from the camera. The recording unit 4200 records video / audio data received from the camera. The control unit 4300 controls each unit. The recognition result expansion unit 4400 expands the processing result received from the camera. Here, the recognition result expansion unit 4400 expands the processing result 4410 according to the second rule, which is processed and output according to the second rules 1422, 1423, and 1424 by the rule-by-rule processing unit 1420 of the camera recognition processing unit 1400. If the developed recognition result satisfies a predetermined condition, the recording unit 4200 records video / audio data received from the camera via the control unit 4300.

FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating an example of a configuration of a network camera system including a recognition processing unit 1400 that outputs a single processing result from a camera.
The difference from the configuration shown in FIG. 1 is that the recognition processing unit 1400 of the camera outputs a single processing result. In this configuration, only the second rule 1430 in the configuration shown in FIG. 1 exists, so the recognition result expansion unit 2500 of the setting client expands the processing result 2520 by the same second rule as the viewer and the recording server. To do.

Therefore, when the recognition parameter value input from the recognition parameter setting unit 2400 by the user is immediately transmitted to the camera and reflected in the second rule 1430, even if the setting is being changed, the viewer or the recording server receives it. The processing result to be affected will be affected. On the other hand, when the recognition parameter setting unit 2400 has a buffer and the second rule 1430 is not changed until the recognition parameter value is stored, such a problem does not occur.
However, even if the recognition parameter value is changed, the display / playback unit 2600 displays (or plays back) the expanded content of the processing result 2520 according to the second rule 1430 as in the viewer or the recording server. It becomes difficult to set the value appropriately.

FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating an example of a configuration of a network camera system in which each of the camera and the setting client includes a recognition processing unit.
2 is different from the configuration shown in FIG. 2 in that the setting client has a recognition processing unit 2700. FIG. 3 shows the configuration of the setting client. Even in this configuration, the recognition processing unit 2700 of the setting client holds the first rule 2710 similar to the first rule 1421 in the configuration shown in FIG. Recognition parameters can be set. Even during the setting change, until the recognition parameter value is transmitted to the camera and stored in the second rules 1422, 1423, and 1424, the processing results 3410 and 4410 by the second rule received by the viewer and the recording server are also obtained. Not affected.

However, the processing result of the recognition processing unit 2700 of the setting client is not the video and audio captured by the camera but the video and audio output from the decompression unit 2200. Therefore, the processing result 2510 according to the first rule in the configuration shown in FIG. 1 may be different from the processing result 2510 according to the first rule in the configuration shown in FIG.
Based on the content described above, the following description will be made on the assumption of the configuration shown in FIG.

FIG. 4 is a diagram illustrating an example (display example) of a screen in a setting client for setting a recognition parameter value related to a video.
In this example, the function for setting the recognition parameter value in the setting client is implemented as software (setting application) on the PC. That is, the control unit 2300 performs processing according to the procedure of the program stored in the storage device, thereby realizing functions in the setting client and processing according to a flowchart described later. However, the present invention is not limited to this configuration. For example, the setting client can be implemented by a monitor device that displays video and physical buttons, switches, and lamps on hardware. Note that each function of the camera can be similarly realized.

  Here, on the screen, a rule list 6100 displaying a list of rules that have been set or being set, an “add” button 6200 for newly adding a rule, and a “delete” button 6300 for deleting the selected rule. Is arranged. On the screen, a recognition parameter setting tab 6500 for editing the parameter value of the recognition parameter selected in the rule list, a “save” button 6600 for saving the recognition parameter value, and a video display for displaying the video received from the camera. Part 6700 is arranged. On the screen, a video switching radio button 6800 for selecting a video to be received from either a live video or a recorded video, and a “record” button 6810 for starting video recording with the camera while the live video is displayed. Has been placed. Also, on the screen, a detection result display unit 6900 that displays a detection ON / OFF trigger state included in the processing result 2510 by the first rule, and an “end” button 6000 for ending the setting application are arranged. Yes.

  The recognition parameter setting tab 6500 is provided with a “detection type” list box 6510 for selecting a rule type from among “intrusion detection”, “removal detection”, and “left behind detection”. The recognition parameter setting tab 6500 is provided with a “rule name” text box 6520 for inputting a rule name for identifying each rule, and a “sensitivity” slider 6530 for specifying sensitivity in object detection. In the recognition parameter setting tab 6500, an “object size” slider 6540 for specifying the lower limit size of the detected object and a detection duration time from when the object is detected until the detection ON / OFF trigger state is generated are specified. A “detection time” slider 6550 is provided. The video display unit 6700 displays a detection area frame 6710 for designating an area for detecting an object, and an object detection block 6720 for displaying the area where the object is detected as a block.

In the above example, the recognition parameter setting unit 2400 corresponds to the recognition parameter setting tab 6500 for editing the recognition parameter value selected in the rule list 6100, the detection area frame 6710, and the like.
In the object detection block 6720 and the detection result display unit 6900, a recognition result to which the current recognition parameter value displayed in the recognition parameter setting tab 6500 and the detection area frame 6710 is applied is displayed in real time. Note that the maximum number of rules displayed in the rule list 6100 is the same as the number of second rules in the rule-by-rule processing unit 1420. If the number of rules in the rule list 6100 is maximum, an “add” button 6200 is displayed. It is disabled and the user cannot press it.

FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating an example (display example) of a screen in the viewer. In this example, the viewer is implemented as software on a PC, similar to the setting client, but it may also be implemented by a monitor device that displays video and physical buttons, switches, and lamps on the hardware. Is possible.
On the screen, a video display unit 7100 that displays video received from the camera and a detection result display unit 7200 that displays a processing result 3410 (recognition result) according to the second rule are arranged. Unlike the setting client, the viewer does not need detailed information such as the block in which the object is detected, and therefore, the video display unit 7100 displays only the video received from the camera. In the detection result display section 7200, the detection ON / OFF trigger state included in the processing result 3410 by the second rule indicates the rule name and occurrence time specified in the “rule name” text box 6520 of the setting client. Are displayed in time series.

Here, the processing result 2510 according to the first rule received by the setting client can be acquired from the viewer. However, the processing result 2510 by the first rule is only for previewing the recognition result after the setting change by the setting client. Therefore, in order not to cause confusion for the user, it is desirable that the control unit 1500 is restricted so that it cannot be obtained from a client other than the setting client, or is not obtained (or displayed) by the client.
Further, the processing results 3410 and 4410 according to the second rule can include detailed information such as the object detection block 6720 in the setting client. However, if it is not necessary for the viewer or the recording server user, it is necessary to delete (remove) from the processing results 3410 and 4410 of the second rule or limit the use on the client in consideration of reduction of the distribution data amount. Is desirable.

FIG. 6 is a diagram illustrating an example of a flowchart relating to processing (rule addition processing) for setting a recognition parameter value when adding a new rule in the setting client. When the user presses the “add” button 6200, step S8001 is executed.
In step S8001, the control unit 2300 adds a new rule to the rule list 6100 via the recognition parameter setting unit 2400 to make it a selected state, sets initial values for each recognition parameter held in the setting client, and then continues. Then, the process of step S8002 is performed. When the processing of step S8001 is performed, each recognition parameter value is reflected on the GUI on the screen.

In step S8002, the control unit 2300 transmits the recognition parameter value changed in response to the change operation to the camera via the communication unit 2100. That is, the recognition parameter value whose value has been changed in step S8001 is transmitted to the camera, and each recognition parameter value in the first rule 1421 is set to be the same as each recognition parameter value held in the setting client. .
More specifically, the camera control unit 1500 (an example of an updating unit) communicates the recognition parameter value changed in response to the change operation performed to change the recognition parameter value of the second rule. Received via the unit 1300. Then, the control unit 1500 updates the recognition parameter value of the first rule 1421 with the received recognition parameter value. Then, the control unit 1500 (an example of the second transmission unit) transmits the recognition processing result (processing result 2510) to which the updated recognition parameter value of the first rule 1421 is applied via the communication unit 1300 to the setting client. Send to. Note that the control unit 2300 performs the process of step S8003.

  After step S8002 is executed, the process waits until the user inputs. Here, the control unit 2300 allows the user to operate the recognition parameter setting tab 6500 or the detection area frame 6710 via the recognition parameter setting unit 2400 (an example of a change operation), and any of the recognition parameter values is changed. If it is determined that the process has been performed, the process of step S8002 is performed again. On the other hand, when the control unit 2300 determines that no recognition parameter value has been changed, the control unit 2300 performs the process of step S8004.

In step S8004, when the control unit 2300 determines that the “save” button 6600 is pressed via the recognition parameter setting unit 2400, the control unit 2300 performs the process of step S8005. On the other hand, when it is determined that the “save” button 6600 has not been pressed (an example of a save operation), the control unit 2300 performs the process of step S8006.
In step S8005, the control unit 2300 transmits a recognition parameter value storage command (instruction) to the camera via the communication unit 2100. Upon receiving this save command, the camera collectively copies each recognition parameter value in the first rule 1421 to each recognition parameter value in the unused second rule.
In step S8006, when the control unit 2300 determines that the “end” button 6000 has been pressed via the recognition parameter setting unit 2400, or determines that an existing rule has been selected in the rule list, the control unit 2300 performs a rule addition process. finish. On the other hand, when the control unit 2300 determines that the “end” button 6000 is not pressed, and determines that no existing rule is selected in the rule list, the process of step S8003 is performed again.

FIG. 7 is a diagram illustrating an example of a flowchart relating to a process for setting a recognition parameter value of an existing rule (recognition parameter value change process) in the setting client. When the user selects a rule in the rule list 6100, the process of step S9001 is executed. The recognition parameter value changing process is almost the same as the rule adding process of FIG. 6, and therefore different processes (the processes of steps S9001 and S9005) will be described.
In step S9001, the control unit 2300 sets each recognition parameter value in the rule currently selected in the rule list 6100 to each recognition parameter held in the setting client, and then performs the process in step S9002. When the processing of step S9001 is performed, each recognition parameter value is reflected on the GUI on the screen.
In step S9005, the control unit 2300 transmits a recognition parameter value storage command to the camera via the communication unit 2100. Upon receiving this save command, the camera collectively copies each recognition parameter value in the first rule 1421 to each recognition parameter value in the selected second rule.

  Here, in the present embodiment, the control unit 1500 (an example of the first transmission unit) of the camera transmits the processing result to which the recognition parameter value of the second rule is applied via the communication unit 1300 at an appropriate timing. Sent to clients such as viewers. Further, in step S8005 in FIG. 6 and step S9005 in FIG. 7, a difference occurs between each recognition parameter value in the second rule of the copy destination and each recognition parameter value in the first rule. Therefore, depending on this difference, there is a possibility that the detection ON / OFF trigger state may change due to the satisfaction of the conditions determined by the respective recognition parameters even though there is no change in the video and audio.

In order to avoid such a situation, for example, until a predetermined period (preset time) elapses immediately after step S8005 or step S9005, the rule-by-rule processing unit 1420 displays the processing result according to the second rule to be changed. Do not output the included trigger information. Further, for example, the rule-by-rule processing unit 1420 may add information so that the client can determine that the trigger information has changed in accordance with the change operation. Note that the processing by the rule-specific processing unit 1420 may be performed by the control unit 1500. Further, the control unit 2300 sets the reservation state without performing the processing of steps S8005 and S9005 immediately after the “save” button is pressed, and detects that the camera control with the change of video and audio is performed in the reservation state ( These processes may be performed immediately thereafter. Note that the configuration is not limited to the above-described configuration. For example, when the control unit 1500 receives a save command via the communication unit 1300, the control unit 1500 waits and performs camera control with video and audio changes. You may make a batch copy when triggered.
According to the configuration described above, it is possible to appropriately change the setting of the recognition process while previewing the result on the setting client without affecting the result of the recognition process distributed to a general client.

Conventionally, when the algorithm differs depending on the camera due to improvement of the algorithm of the camera recognition means, etc., it is necessary to switch the algorithm for each connected camera after the client recognition means supports all algorithms. However, in reality, it is not easy to deal with these problems completely, and if you try to deal with them forcibly, it will require both users and manufacturers to have trouble and costs such as frequent client updates and update program development. It will be.
On the other hand, according to this embodiment, the process for previewing the recognition result and the process for outputting the recognition result distributed to a general client are performed by the camera. Therefore, it does not require the effort and cost of frequent client updates and update program development. Also, with this configuration, it is possible to eliminate the difference between the processing result by the preview during the setting change and the processing result after the setting change.

(Second Embodiment)
FIG. 8 is a diagram illustrating an example of a configuration of a network camera system capable of setting a recognition parameter value using a recorded video.
The setting client, viewer, and recording server have basically the same configuration as that shown in the first embodiment, but the configuration of the camera is different. FIG. 8 shows the configuration of the camera. The camera has an external recording device 1800 and a recording unit 1700 (recording control means) for recording the video / audio data 1810 compressed by the compression unit 1200 and the common processed metadata 1820 output by the common processing unit 1410 on the external recording device. It is an example.) Here, the video / audio data 1810 and the common processed metadata 1820 are recorded in association with each other so that the video and audio at the same time and the common processed metadata can be acquired.

FIG. 9 is a diagram illustrating an example (display example) of a screen on the setting client during the setting of the recognition parameter value using the recorded video.
The configuration of the screen is basically the same as the display example of FIG. 4, but “recorded video” is selected by the video switching radio button 6800 for selecting the video to be received from live video or recorded video. Is different. In this state, video / audio data 1810 recorded by pressing the “record” button 6810 in the past is displayed on the video display unit 6700.

The object detection block 6720 and the detection result display unit 6900 display the recognition results obtained by applying the recognition parameters currently displayed in the recognition parameter setting tab 6500 and the detection area frame 6710 to the common processed metadata 1820. . That is, the control unit 1500 (an example of a third transmission unit) responds to the operation (request operation) of the radio button 6800 to the first rule for the video / audio data 1810 and the common processed metadata 1820. The processing result to which is applied is transmitted to the setting client.
Further, the rule-by-rule processing unit 1420 processes the second rules 1422, 1423, and 1424 by using the common processing unit 1410 for processing live video and audio captured by the imaging unit 1100 and outputting them. Apply to The rule-by-rule processing unit 1420 applies the first rule 1421 to the past common processed metadata 1820 recorded in the external recording device 1800.
According to this configuration, the common processing unit 1410 is requested to simultaneously process live video and audio and recorded video and audio in the same configuration as the recognition parameter setting using only live video. In addition, it is possible to set the recognition parameter value using the recorded video. When the external recording device 1800 is not connected, the video switching radio button 6800 cannot select “recorded video”, and always “live video” is selected.

  The recognition parameter value setting method according to the present embodiment is a device that outputs a plurality of processing results from a single video or audio input, and does not affect the processing results of a recognition process that is already being executed. This is suitable for setting the recognition result while previewing.
