Abstract
Disclosed is a method for identifying and monitoring a shopping behavior in a user. The method includes capturing images from a depth camera mounted on a shelf unit, identifying a user from the captured image, identifying joints of the identified user by performing a deep neural network (DNN) body joint detection on the captured images; detecting and tracking actions of the identified user over a first time period; tracking an object from the bins over a second time period by associating the object with one or more joints among the identified joints that have entered the bins within the shelf unit, and determining an action of the identified user based at least in part on the associated object with the one or more joints and results from the deep learning identification on the bounding box.
