A method for recognizing persons in video streams includes obtaining a live video stream, detecting a first person in the live video stream, determining from analysis of the live video stream first information that identifies an attribute of the first person, determining based on at least some of the first information that the first person is not identifiable to the computing system, storing at least some of the first information, receiving a user classification of the first person as being a stranger, and deleting the stored first information.

Systems and methods of person recognition in video streams

The various implementations described herein include systems and methods for recognizing persons in video streams. In one aspect, a method includes: obtaining images collected by video cameras in a smart home environment, each image including a detected person; for each image, obtaining first information that identifies an attribute of the detected person, the first information generated from analysis of the image; grouping the images into a first group of a plurality of groups based on the first information, each group of the plurality of groups representing a unique person; receiving a request to remove a first image from the first group; removing the first image from the first group; and disassociating the first information from the first group.

The various implementations described herein include systems and methods for recognizing persons in video streams. In one aspect, a method includes: (1) obtaining a live video stream; (2) detecting person(s) in the stream; and (3) determining, from analysis of the live video stream, first information of the detected person(s); (4) determining, based on the first information, that the first person is not known to the computing system; (5) in accordance with the determination that the first person is not known: (a) storing the first information; and (b) requesting a user to classify the first person; and (6) in accordance with a determination that a response was received classifying the first person as a stranger, deleting the stored first information.

The various implementations described herein include systems and methods for recognizing persons in video streams. In one aspect, a method includes: (1) obtaining images collected by video cameras in a smart home environment, each image including a detected person; (2) for each image, obtaining personally identifiable information of the detected person, the personally identifiable information generated from analysis of the image; (3) grouping the images into a first group of a plurality of groups based on the personally identifiable information, each group of the plurality of groups representing a unique person; (4) receiving from a user a request to remove a first image from the first group; and (5) in response to the request: (a) removing the first image from the first group; and (b) disassociating the corresponding personally identifiable information from the first group.

Systems and methods for person recognition data management

The various implementations described herein include systems and methods for recognizing persons in video streams. In one aspect, a method includes: (1) obtaining a live video stream; (2) detecting person(s) in the stream; and (3) determining, from analysis of the live video stream, personally identifiable information of the detected person(s); (4) determining, based on the personally identifiable information, that the first person is not known to the computing system; (5) in accordance with the determination that the first person is not known: (a) storing the personally identifiable information; and (b) requesting a user to classify the first person; and (6) in accordance with (i) a determination that a predetermined amount of time has elapsed since the request was transmitted and a response was not received, or (ii) a determination that a response was received classifying the first person as a stranger, deleting the stored personally identifiable information.
