Innovating Person Detection: Machine Learning Advancements in Identification
In a Nutshell
A leading Japan-based staffing solutions provider partnered with Innovature Labs to automate the process of person detection in video footage, replacing manual labor with precision-driven AI. Powered by YOLOv8, the system identifies individuals with over 98% accuracy across diverse contexts like surveillance, childcare, and office environments. The result: faster processing, clearer insights, and smarter operations.
Inside the Opportunity
- Manual person identification and frame selection were time-consuming and prone to error.
- No existing system ensured high accuracy in detecting individuals in surveillance and real-world scenarios.
- Frame selection for identification required subjective judgment and lacked consistency.
- The client needed a multi-domain solution—usable across security, office automation, and childcare.
Inside Innovature’s Thinking
- Built an AI-powered person detection engine using YOLOv8 for real-time video and image analysis.
- Grouped similar frames using metric learning, enabling smart clustering.
- Extracted the most representative images using OpenCV, based on visual quality.
- Enhanced facial features with GFPGAN to improve image clarity for better recognition.
- Integrated dlib to enable accurate facial feature mapping and identification.
