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
leave a trace - A People Tracking System Meets Anomaly Detection
Video surveillance always had a negative connotation, among others because of
the loss of privacy and because it may not automatically increase public
safety. If it was able to detect atypical (i.e. dangerous) situations in real
time, autonomously and anonymously, this could change. A prerequisite for this
is a reliable automatic detection of possibly dangerous situations from video
data. This is done classically by object extraction and tracking. From the
derived trajectories, we then want to determine dangerous situations by
detecting atypical trajectories. However, due to ethical considerations it is
better to develop such a system on data without people being threatened or even
harmed, plus with having them know that there is such a tracking system
installed. Another important point is that these situations do not occur very
often in real, public CCTV areas and may be captured properly even less. In the
artistic project leave a trace the tracked objects, people in an atrium of a
institutional building, become actor and thus part of the installation.
Visualisation in real-time allows interaction by these actors, which in turn
creates many atypical interaction situations on which we can develop our
situation detection. The data set has evolved over three years and hence, is
huge. In this article we describe the tracking system and several approaches
for the detection of atypical trajectories
Online real-time crowd behavior detection in video sequences
Automatically detecting events in crowded scenes is a challenging task in Computer Vision. A number of offline approaches have been proposed for solving the problem of crowd behavior detection, however the offline assumption limits their application in real-world video surveillance systems. In this paper, we propose an online and real-time method for detecting events in crowded video sequences. The proposed approach is based on the combination of visual feature extraction and image segmentation and it works without the need of a training phase. A quantitative experimental evaluation has been carried out on multiple publicly available video sequences, containing data from various crowd scenarios and different types of events, to demonstrate the effectiveness of the approach
