US Patent 10185895 Systems and methods for classifying activities captured within images

An image including a visual capture of a scene may be accessed. The image may be processed through a convolutional neural network. The convolutional neural network may generate a set of two-dimensional feature maps based on the image. The set of two-dimensional feature maps may be processed through a contextual long short-term memory unit. The contextual long short-term memory unit may generate a set of two-dimensional outputs based on the set of two-dimensional feature maps. A set of attention-masks for the image may be generated based on the set of two-dimensional outputs and the set of two-dimensional feature maps. The set of attention-masks may define dimensional portions of the image. The scene may be classified based on the two-dimensional outputs.
