Crime generates significant losses, both human and economic. Every year, billions of dollars are lost due to attacks, crimes, and scams. Surveillance video camera networks are generating vast amounts of data, and the surveillance staff can…
Shoplifting is a growing operational and economic challenge for retailers, with incidents rising and losses increasing despite extensive video surveillance. Continuous human monitoring is infeasible, motivating automated,…
Shoplifting poses a significant challenge for retailers, resulting in billions of dollars in annual losses. Traditional security measures often fall short, highlighting the need for intelligent solutions capable of detecting shoplifting…
Retail theft costs the global economy over \$100 billion annually, yet existing AI-based detection systems require expensive custom model training on proprietary datasets and charge \$200-500/month per store. We present Paza, a zero-shot…
Predicting the behaviour of shoppers provides valuable information for retailers, such as the expected spend of a shopper or the total turnover of a supermarket. The ability to make predictions on an individual level is useful, as it allows…
Scrap quality directly affects energy use, emissions, and safety in steelmaking. Today, the share of non-metallic inclusions (contamination) is judged visually by inspectors - an approach that is subjective and hazardous due to dust and…
The use of machine learning (ML) methods for development of robust and flexible visual inspection system has shown promising. However their performance is highly dependent on the amount and diversity of training data. This is often…
Cybersecurity practices require effort to be maintained, and one weakness is a lack of awareness regarding potential attacks not only in the usage of machine learning models, but also in their development process. Previous studies have…
Quality control of assembly processes is essential in manufacturing to ensure not only the quality of individual components but also their proper integration into the final product. To assist in this matter, automated assembly control using…
With the development of Information and Communication Technologies and the dissemination of smartphones, especially now that image search is possible through the internet, e-commerce markets are more activating purchasing services for a…
Most eCommerce applications, like web-shops have millions of products. In this context, the identification of similar products is a common sub-task, which can be utilized in the implementation of recommendation systems, product search…
Many municipalities and road authorities seek to implement automated evaluation of road damage. However, they often lack technology, know-how, and funds to afford state-of-the-art equipment for data collection and analysis of road damages.…
Automatic image cropping techniques are commonly used to enhance the aesthetic quality of an image; they do it by detecting the most beautiful or the most salient parts of the image and removing the unwanted content to have a smaller image…
Software containers greatly facilitate the deployment and reproducibility of scientific data analyses in various platforms. However, container images often contain outdated or unnecessary software packages, which increases the number of…
This study offers a step-by-step practical procedure from the analysis of the current status of the spare parts inventory system to advanced service-level analysis by virtue of simulation-optimization technique for a real-world case study…
Virtualization enables information and communications technology industry to better manage computing resources. In this regard, improvements in virtualization approaches together with the need for consistent runtime environment, lower…
Recent estimates report that companies lose 5% of their revenue to occupational fraud. Since most medium-sized and large companies employ Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems to track vast amounts of information regarding their…
The serverless computing model strengthens the cloud computing tendency to abstract resource management. Serverless platforms are responsible for deploying and scaling the developer's applications. Serverless also incorporated the…
Small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) is extensively used in materials science as a way of examining nanostructures. The analysis of experimental SAXS data involves mapping a rather simple data format to a vast amount of structural models.…
