Abstract
We present a feasibility study on the use of spatial logic model checking for real-time analysis of high-resolution video streams with the tool VoxLogicA. VoxLogicA is a voxel-based image analyser based on the Spatial Logic for Closure Spaces, a logic catered to deal with properties of spatial structures such as topological spaces, graphs and polyhedra. The underlying language includes operators to model proximity and reachability. We demonstrate, via the analysis of a series of video frames from a well-known video game, that it is possible to analyse high-resolution videos in real-time by exploiting the speed-up of VoxLogicA-GPU, a recently developed GPU-based version of the tool, which is 1–2 orders of magnitude faster than its previous iteration. Potential applications of real-time video analysis include medical imaging applications such as ultrasound exams, and other video-based diagnostic techniques. More broadly speaking, this work can be the first step towards novel information retrieval methods suitable to find information in a declarative way, in possibly large collections of video streams.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
