1. A method, comprising:
- prioritizing by a processor each transaction unit of a plurality of individual transaction units that each comprise transaction data and video data corresponding to an item purchased by a customer at one of a plurality of different checkout lanes into a prioritized processing order as a function of lane priority values of respective ones of the different checkout lanes that the transaction unit video data and transaction data is captured from for each of the individual transaction units, wherein each of the different checkout lanes has a different lane priority value; and
processing by the processor the individual transaction units in the prioritized processing order to automatically detect irregular activities indicated by the transaction unit video and the transaction data of the processed individual transaction units.

Abstract
Transaction units of video data and transaction data captured from different checkout lanes are prioritized as a function of lane priority values of respective ones of the different checkout lanes from which the transaction units are acquired. Each of the checkout lanes has a different lane priority value. The individual transaction units are processed in the prioritized processing order to automatically detect irregular activities indicated by the transaction unit video and the transaction data of the processed individual transaction units.

11. A system, comprising:
-
a processor in communication with a computer-readable memory and a computer-readable storage device; wherein the processor, when executing program instructions stored on the computer-readable storage device via the computer-readable memory; prioritizes each transaction unit of a plurality of individual transaction units that each comprise transaction data and video data corresponding to an item purchased by a customer at one of a plurality of different checkout lanes into a prioritized processing order as a function of lane priority values of respective ones of the different checkout lanes that the transaction unit video data and transaction data is captured from for each of the individual transaction units, wherein each of the different checkout lanes has a different lane priority value; and processes the individual transaction units in the prioritized processing order to automatically detect irregular activities indicated by the transaction unit video and the transaction data of the processed individual transaction units. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15)

16. An article of manufacture, comprising:
-
a computer-readable tangible storage device having computer readable program code embodied therewith, the computer readable program code comprising instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to; prioritize each transaction unit of a plurality of individual transaction units that each comprise transaction data and video data corresponding to an item purchased by a customer at one of a plurality of different checkout lanes into a prioritized processing order as a function of lane priority values of respective ones of the different checkout lanes that the transaction unit video data and transaction data is captured from for each of the individual transaction units, wherein each of the different checkout lanes has a different lane priority value; and process the individual transaction units in the prioritized processing order to automatically detect irregular activities indicated by the transaction unit video and the transaction data of the processed individual transaction units. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
