Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for object detection. One of the methods includes determining, using first sensor data, a detection result on whether to trigger an event alerting a presence of an object in a target area by executing one or more models; determining, using second sensor data, a ground truth for the event that indicates whether an object is present in the target area; determining a difference value by comparing the detection result and the ground truth; adjusting at least one parameter of the one or more models in response to determining that the difference value does not satisfy the one or more threshold criteria; and determining a new detection result on whether to trigger a second event by executing the one or more models with adjusted parameters using new first sensor data.

Using implicit event ground truth for video cameras

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for monitoring events using a Virtual Inductive Loop system. In some implementations, image data is obtained from cameras. A region depicted in the obtained image data is identified, the region comprising lines spaced by a distance that satisfies a distance threshold. For each line included in the region: an object depicted crossing the line is determined whether to satisfy a height criteria indicating that the line is activated. In response to determining that an object depicted crossing the line satisfies the height criteria, an event is determined to have likely occurred using data indicating (i) which lines of the lines were activated and (ii) an order in which each of the lines were activated. In response to determining that an event likely occurred, actions are performed using at least some of the data.

Vehicular access control based on virtual inductive loop

Methods, systems, and apparatus for ground plane filtering of video events are disclosed. A method includes obtaining a first set of images of a scene from a camera; determining a ground plane from the first set of images of the scene; obtaining a second set of images of the scene after the first set of images of the scene is obtained; determining that movement shown by a group of pixels in the second set of images of the scene satisfies motion criteria; determining that the ground plane corresponds with at least a portion of the group of pixels; and in response to determining that movement shown by the group of pixels in the second set of images of the scene satisfies motion criteria, and that the ground plane corresponds with at least a portion of the group of pixels, classifying the group of pixels as showing ground plane based motion.
