Lost in Time: Temporal Analytics for Long-Term Video Surveillance
Video surveillance is a well researched area of study with substantial work
done in the aspects of object detection, tracking and behavior analysis. With
the abundance of video data captured over a long period of time, we can
understand patterns in human behavior and scene dynamics through data-driven
temporal analytics. In this work, we propose two schemes to perform descriptive
and predictive analytics on long-term video surveillance data. We generate
heatmap and footmap visualizations to describe spatially pooled trajectory
patterns with respect to time and location. We also present two approaches for
anomaly prediction at the day-level granularity: a trajectory-based statistical
approach, and a time-series based approach. Experimentation with one year data
from a single camera demonstrates the ability to uncover interesting insights
about the scene and to predict anomalies reasonably well.Comment: To Appear in Springer LNE
Learning to Detect Violent Videos using Convolutional Long Short-Term Memory
Developing a technique for the automatic analysis of surveillance videos in
order to identify the presence of violence is of broad interest. In this work,
we propose a deep neural network for the purpose of recognizing violent videos.
A convolutional neural network is used to extract frame level features from a
video. The frame level features are then aggregated using a variant of the long
short term memory that uses convolutional gates. The convolutional neural
network along with the convolutional long short term memory is capable of
capturing localized spatio-temporal features which enables the analysis of
local motion taking place in the video. We also propose to use adjacent frame
differences as the input to the model thereby forcing it to encode the changes
occurring in the video. The performance of the proposed feature extraction
pipeline is evaluated on three standard benchmark datasets in terms of
recognition accuracy. Comparison of the results obtained with the state of the
art techniques revealed the promising capability of the proposed method in
recognizing violent videos.Comment: Accepted in International Conference on Advanced Video and Signal
