Abnormal Event Detection in Videos using Spatiotemporal Autoencoder
We present an efficient method for detecting anomalies in videos. Recent
applications of convolutional neural networks have shown promises of
convolutional layers for object detection and recognition, especially in
images. However, convolutional neural networks are supervised and require
labels as learning signals. We propose a spatiotemporal architecture for
anomaly detection in videos including crowded scenes. Our architecture includes
two main components, one for spatial feature representation, and one for
learning the temporal evolution of the spatial features. Experimental results
on Avenue, Subway and UCSD benchmarks confirm that the detection accuracy of
our method is comparable to state-of-the-art methods at a considerable speed of
up to 140 fps
LCrowdV: Generating Labeled Videos for Simulation-based Crowd Behavior Learning
We present a novel procedural framework to generate an arbitrary number of
labeled crowd videos (LCrowdV). The resulting crowd video datasets are used to
design accurate algorithms or training models for crowded scene understanding.
Our overall approach is composed of two components: a procedural simulation
framework for generating crowd movements and behaviors, and a procedural
rendering framework to generate different videos or images. Each video or image
is automatically labeled based on the environment, number of pedestrians,
density, behavior, flow, lighting conditions, viewpoint, noise, etc.
Furthermore, we can increase the realism by combining synthetically-generated
behaviors with real-world background videos. We demonstrate the benefits of
LCrowdV over prior lableled crowd datasets by improving the accuracy of
pedestrian detection and crowd behavior classification algorithms. LCrowdV
would be released on the WWW
Future Frame Prediction for Anomaly Detection -- A New Baseline
Anomaly detection in videos refers to the identification of events that do
not conform to expected behavior. However, almost all existing methods tackle
the problem by minimizing the reconstruction errors of training data, which
cannot guarantee a larger reconstruction error for an abnormal event. In this
paper, we propose to tackle the anomaly detection problem within a video
prediction framework. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first work that
leverages the difference between a predicted future frame and its ground truth
to detect an abnormal event. To predict a future frame with higher quality for
normal events, other than the commonly used appearance (spatial) constraints on
intensity and gradient, we also introduce a motion (temporal) constraint in
video prediction by enforcing the optical flow between predicted frames and
ground truth frames to be consistent, and this is the first work that
introduces a temporal constraint into the video prediction task. Such spatial
and motion constraints facilitate the future frame prediction for normal
events, and consequently facilitate to identify those abnormal events that do
not conform the expectation. Extensive experiments on both a toy dataset and
some publicly available datasets validate the effectiveness of our method in
terms of robustness to the uncertainty in normal events and the sensitivity to
abnormal events.Comment: IEEE Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition 201
