Abstract
Hazards are present in all workplaces and can result in serious injuries, short and long-term illnesses, or death. In this context, management of safety is essential to ensure the occupational health of workers. Aiming to assist the safety management process, especially in industrial environments, a Cognitive Vision Platform for Hazard Control (CVP-HC) is proposed. This platform is a Cyber Physical system, capable of identifying critical safety behaviors overcoming the limitations of current computer vision systems. In addition, the system stores experiential knowledge about safety events in an explicit and structured way. This knowledge can be easily accessed and shared and may be used to improve the user/company experience as well as to understand the company safety culture and to support a long term change process. The CVP-HC is a scalable yet adaptable system capable of working in a variety of video analysis scenarios whilst meeting specific safety requirements of companies by modifying its behavior accordingly. The proposed system is based on the Set of Experience Knowledge Structure (SOEKS) and Decisional DNA (DDNA).
