AI in video recognition: Assessing video footage with a machine learning algorithm

Many companies create video footage for applications like inspection, quality control, surveillance or process management. A shared feature of all situations where video monitoring is applied is that it involves a lot of manpower to assess the footage. This is where artificial intelligence (AI) can help.

It’s almost impossible to do without AI anymore, and its applications are widespread: from self-driving cars and apps that can assess whether a birthmark will lead to skin cancer to the automatic detection of cows going into heat based on drone-mounted camera footage. All this is made possible by artificial intelligence, especially machine learning and deep learning.

In this white paper we outline the uses of machine learning for the automatic recognition and classification of video footage. For which situations in video recognition can AI be applied? What are the benefits? And what does the business case look like?
