In the Internet of Things (IoT) era, various devices generate massive videos containing rich human relations. However, the long-distance transmission of huge videos may cause congestion and delays, and the large gap between the visual and relation spaces brings about difficulties for relation analysis. Hence, this study explores an edge-cloud intelligence framework and two algorithms for cooperative relation extraction and analysis from videos based on an IoT system. First, we exploit a cooperative mechanism on the edges and cloud, which can schedule the relation recognition and analysis subtasks from massive video streams. Second, we propose a Multi-Granularity relation recognition Model (MGM) based on coarse and fined granularity features. This means that better mapping is established for identifying relations more accurately. Specifically, we propose an entity graph based on Graph Convolutional Networks (GCN) with an attention mechanism, which can support comprehensive relationship reasoning. Third, we develop a Community Detection based on the Ensemble Learning model (CDEL), which leverages a heterogeneous skip-gram model to perform node embedding and detect communities. Experiments on SRIV datasets and four movie videos validate that our solution outperforms several competitive baselines.
