A network data classifier statistically classifies received data at wire-speed by examining, in part, the payloads of packets in which such data are disposed and without having a priori knowledge of the classification of the data. The network data classifier includes a feature extractor that extract features from the packets it receives. Such features include, for example, textual or binary patterns within the data or profiling of the network traffic. The network data classifier further includes a statistical classifier that classifies the received data into one or more pre-defined categories using the numerical values representing the features extracted by the feature extractor. The statistical classifier may generate a probability distribution function for each of a multitude of classes for the received data. The data so classified are subsequently be processed by a policy engine. Depending on the policies, different categories may be treated differently.

The present invention relates to a system and method for identifying and tracking gaming objects. The system comprises an overhead camera for capturing an image the table, a detection module for detecting a feature of the object on the image, a search module for extracting a region of interest of the image that describes the object from the feature, a search module for extracting a region of interest of the image that describes the object from the feature, a feature space module for transforming a feature space of the region of interest to obtain a transformed region of interest, and an identity module comprising a statistical classifier trained to recognize the object from the transformed region. The search module is able to extract a region of interest of an image from any detected feature indicative of its position.

The present invention includes a system and method for automatically extracting the demographic information from images. The system detects the face in an image, locates different components, extracts component features, and then classifies the components to identify the age, gender, or ethnicity of the person(s) in the image. Using components for demographic classification gives better results as compared to currently known techniques. Moreover, the described system and technique can be used to extract demographic information in more robust manner than currently known methods, in environments where high degree of variability in size, shape, color, texture, pose, and occlusion exists. This invention also performs classifier fusion using Data Level fusion and Multi-level classification for fusing results of various component demographic classifiers. Besides use as an automated data collection system wherein given the necessary facial information as the data, the demographic category of the person is determined automatically, the system could also be used for targeting of the advertisements, surveillance, human computer interaction, security enhancements, immersive computer games and improving user interfaces based on demographic information.

An automated voice message or caller prioritization system that extracts words, prosody, and / or metadata from a voice input. The data extracted is classified with a statistical classifier into groups of interest. These groups could indicate the likelihood that a call is urgent versus nonurgent, from someone the user knows well versus someone that the user only knows casually or not at all, from someone using a mobile phone versus a landline, or a business call versus a personal calls. The system then can determine an action based on results of the groups, including the display of likely category labels on the message. Call handling and display actions can be defined by user preferences.
