Create Custom AI Task

Task Group​

info

If you don't see the Task group page, please enable the Advanced View mode from the Setting page

The Task Group page provides user a way to create custom AI Tasks (indicated by the black color in below image) beside the ANSVIS built-in AI Tasks (indicated by the gray color in below image).

info

Task Group allows you to create one or multiple custom AI Tasks that share the same cameras, AI models, and configuration settings. It also enables you to start or stop all tasks in the group collectively, making task management more efficient and time-saving. You can choose to have a single custom AI Task or multiple custom AI Tasks in a group , depending on whether they need to use the same settings on the tasks.

To start creating a task group, press the Add Server AI Task Group button. You will then be prompted to the AI Task Group configuration page.

Give your task group a name in the AI Task Group Name field.

Add cameras​

  1. From the camera drop-down list, select the cameras you want to add to the group. The camera preview image will be displayed on the screen, press the Snapshot button to refresh the image (if needed)
  2. Press the Add button to add the selected camera to the group.
  3. Select any camera in the group and press Edit Image Process button to modify the camera image before sending for AI analysis (if needed)

Add AI models​

  1. From the model drop-down list, select the models you want to add to the group.
  2. Press the Add button to add the selected models to the group.
  3. Detection-type models have min score parameter, adjust it if needed
info

Model min score (or confidence score) is a value, typically between 0 and 1, or 0% to 100%, that indicates how confident the AI model is in its detection.

For example, if a model detects a person with a score of 0.92 (92%), it means it is 92% certain the detected object is a person.

Confidence scores help filter out uncertain results. The ideal threshold depends on your specific use case, how important accuracy is, and whether you prefer to avoid false positives (wrong detections) or false negatives (missed detections).

warning

Some models cannot be added together

Create Custom AI Tasks​

After selecting cameras and models for the task group, you need to create AI Task to monitor objects of interest

From the AI Task section, click the Add button to create the first task. You will then be prompted to the custom AI Task configuration page.

  1. Give your task a name in the Task Name field.
  2. Select the camera you want to use for this task in the Select Camera drop-down list
info

Each task only monitors one camera; you need to create another task to monitor the other cameras (if any).
