Abstract
This disclosure describes systems and techniques for detecting certain activity in image data, such as frames of video data. For example, the systems and techniques may create and utilize an activity classifier for detecting and classifying certain human activity in video data of a facility. In some instances, the classifier may be trained to identify, from the video data, certain predefined activity such as a user picking an item from a shelf, a user returning an item to a shelf, a first user passing an item to a second user, or the like. In some instances, the techniques enable activity detection using only video data, rather than in addition to data acquired by other sensors.
