Intelligent Video Surveillance System
Successfully Got Through The Inspection And Acceptance

2009.3.3        The inspection and acceptance conference of the project "Intelligent Video Surveillance System" was held at Shanghai Key Laboratory of Computer Software Testing and Evaluating, Shanghai Development Center of Computer Software Technology. The people attending the conference included Satoshi Ishibashi (Head of Cyber Space Institute, NTT Group in Japan), Will. Mori (CEO of Data Indexing, Inc.), Prof. Liu Yuncai (Distinguished Professor of Shanghai Jiaotong University), Huang Yi (Head of Shanghai Development Center of Computer Software Technology), Cai Lizhi (Director of Shanghai Key Laboratory of Computer Software Testing and Evaluating), Li Weimin (Director of Technology Department of Beijing NTT DATA System Integration Co., Ltd.) and others. It marks the two-year development and commercialization project of "Intelligent Video Surveillance System" has successfully entered the final phase.

The project "Intelligent Video Surveillance System" was consigned to Data Indexing and Shanghai Jiaotong University by NTT Group in Japan, with the construction target to provide intelligent monitoring service for the video surveillance of Shanghai World Expo 2010 pavilions. The system is composed of 4 subsystems, namely Event Processing System & Event Processing Module (EPS & EPM), System Management Platform, Data Collection Server (DCS), and Alarm Server (AS).

The event processing function modules consist of 8 modules: Face Detection, Detection of Perimeter Intrusion, Anti-tailgating Detection, Anti-violating of Exhibit Area, Abandoned Object Detection, Detection of Intentional Camera Movement, Gateway Visitor Counting and Indoor Person Reckoning, which can be respectively applied in the video surveillance and processing of different scenes. These modules are the core portion of the whole system's intelligent functions. This part was cooperatively developed with Shanghai Jiaotong University, which adopts most advanced computer video image processing and network video streaming technologies. After selection of the best algorithm with high accuracy and fast detection speed by trail and error, the intelligent detection effect has reached or even surpassed the requirements by NTT, and thus earned high appreciation from it.

The software development of the project "Intelligent Video Surveillance System" was entirely conducted in accordance with the commercialization standard. In the developing process, we made in-depth cooperation with Beijing NTT DATA, and hereby we express our sincere gratitude for their substantial supports and aids.

As for the testing of the project "Intelligent Video Surveillance System", we invited the most authoritative software testing organization in China---Shanghai Key Laboratory of Computer Software Testing and Evaluating to conduct testing according to the strictest standard nationwide. The testing contents include Unit Testing (UT), Function Testing (ST1), Integration Testing and Performance Testing (ST2 & RT). The test team of Data Indexing and Testing & Evaluating Laboratory worked overtime, testing repeatedly, positioning performance bottleneck, detecting and feeding back system bugs in time, which guaranteed the smooth underway of the system testing. The number of completed test cases and test density exceeded the number required by NTT by over 20% for which it won their genuine commendation.

On this inspection and acceptance conference, the experts of NTT spoke high of the favorable testing environment and satisfactory working results provided by Data Indexing, Shanghai Jiaotong University and Shanghai Key Laboratory of Computer Software Testing and Evaluating. The successful pass of the inspection and acceptance marks that the commercialization of Data Indexing's "Intelligent Video Surveillance System" has become a success, and also laid a solid technical foundation for the promotion, application and marketization of its products in the future.
