Video analytics system for surveillance videos
Developing an intelligent inspection system that can enhance the public safety is challenging. An efficient video analytics system can help monitor unusual events and mitigate possible damage or loss. This thesis aims to analyze surveillance video data, report abnormal activities and retrieve corresponding video clips. The surveillance video dataset used in this thesis is derived from ALERT Dataset, a collection of surveillance videos at airport security checkpoints.
The video analytics system in this thesis can be thought as a pipelined process. The system takes the surveillance video as input, and passes it through a series of processing such as object detection, multi-object tracking, person-bin association and re-identification. In the end, we can obtain trajectories of passengers and baggage in the surveillance videos. Abnormal events like taking away other's belongings will be detected and trigger the alarm automatically. The system could also retrieve the corresponding video clips based on user-defined query
Real-time Multiple People Tracking with Deeply Learned Candidate Selection and Person Re-Identification
Online multi-object tracking is a fundamental problem in time-critical video
analysis applications. A major challenge in the popular tracking-by-detection
framework is how to associate unreliable detection results with existing
tracks. In this paper, we propose to handle unreliable detection by collecting
candidates from outputs of both detection and tracking. The intuition behind
generating redundant candidates is that detection and tracks can complement
each other in different scenarios. Detection results of high confidence prevent
tracking drifts in the long term, and predictions of tracks can handle noisy
detection caused by occlusion. In order to apply optimal selection from a
considerable amount of candidates in real-time, we present a novel scoring
function based on a fully convolutional neural network, that shares most
computations on the entire image. Moreover, we adopt a deeply learned
appearance representation, which is trained on large-scale person
re-identification datasets, to improve the identification ability of our
tracker. Extensive experiments show that our tracker achieves real-time and
state-of-the-art performance on a widely used people tracking benchmark.Comment: ICME 201
Towards a Principled Integration of Multi-Camera Re-Identification and Tracking through Optimal Bayes Filters
With the rise of end-to-end learning through deep learning, person detectors
and re-identification (ReID) models have recently become very strong.
Multi-camera multi-target (MCMT) tracking has not fully gone through this
transformation yet. We intend to take another step in this direction by
presenting a theoretically principled way of integrating ReID with tracking
formulated as an optimal Bayes filter. This conveniently side-steps the need
for data-association and opens up a direct path from full images to the core of
the tracker. While the results are still sub-par, we believe that this new,
tight integration opens many interesting research opportunities and leads the
way towards full end-to-end tracking from raw pixels.Comment: First two authors have equal contribution. This is initial work into
a new direction, not a benchmark-beating method. v2 only adds
