Projectile extrapolation and sequence synthesis from video using convolution

Abstract:

Using a simple cue to reduce a number of sequential frames included in a video that needs to be analyzed by an artificial neural network to predict information corresponding to a projectile depicted within the video is provided. A timing of the simple cue associated with the video is detected. The number of sequential frames within the video is reduced down to only those frames that are within a specified range of the simple cue. The artificial neural network is used to analyze the reduced number of sequential frames. The information corresponding to the projectile is predicted based on analyzing the reduced number of sequential frames using the artificial neural network.
