Object Recognition
Object Recognition recognizes known objects that appear in media. Object recognition identifies specific objects, not classes of objects.
Before using object recognition, you must train Media Server by adding training images to the training database. For instructions that describe how to train Media Server, refer to the Media Server Administration Guide.
Configuration Parameter | Description |
---|---|
ColorAnalysis | Whether to perform color analysis on detected objects to reduce false detections. |
Database | An object database to use to recognize objects. |
Geometry | The analysis mode to use when comparing the source media to 2-D objects in the training database. |
Geometry3 | The analysis mode to use when comparing the source media to 3-D objects in the training database. |
Identifier | A comma-separated list of identifiers that specifies the objects to recognize. |
Input | The image track to process. |
MaxInputQueueLength | Can be used to place a limit on latency. |
MaxSize | The maximum expected size of an object. |
Metadata | A metadata field name and value that specifies the objects to recognize. |
MinimumMatchPercentage | The (approximate) minimum proportion of the trained object that must be recognized. |
MinSize | The minimum expected size of an object. |
NumParallel | The maximum number of video frames to analyze simultaneously. |
ObjectEnvironment | The type of background that a partially or completely transparent object is superimposed on. |
Occlusion | Whether the object might be partially hidden in images. |
Region | A region of the frame to restrict processing to. |
SampleInterval | The interval at which frames are selected to be analyzed. |
SegmentDuration | The maximum duration of a record in the SegmentedResult or SegmentedResultWithSource track. |
SyncDatabase | Specifies whether to synchronize with the training database before beginning the analysis task. |
Type | The analysis engine to use. Set this parameter to ObjectRecognition . |
