Data is collected from various surveillance systems such as, CCTV footage, drone videos, body cams, and public spaces security cameras.
Data collection is then followed by preprocessing steps such as filtering out raw data containing irrelevant footage (e.g., video frames without movement, or very low quality). Enables a better annotation from the information it has.
The Pre-processed data then annotated using different annotation techniques
In addition to that, using automated tools or annotation experts check the annotation accuracy to make sure if the bounding boxes are set correctly or the labels are used consistently.
Machine learning models are trained using an annotated dataset. The performance of these models is evaluated and tested.
The dataset and its annotations are constantly updated to cope with the new evolving security scenarios (such as the emergence of new data threats or variations in the environment).
While the process isn’t new, it is a critical step for developing secure and robust AI powered systems that promote safety, security, and surveillance in any environment and industry.
