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
Learning Deep Representations of Appearance and Motion for Anomalous Event Detection
We present a novel unsupervised deep learning framework for anomalous event
detection in complex video scenes. While most existing works merely use
hand-crafted appearance and motion features, we propose Appearance and Motion
DeepNet (AMDN) which utilizes deep neural networks to automatically learn
feature representations. To exploit the complementary information of both
appearance and motion patterns, we introduce a novel double fusion framework,
combining both the benefits of traditional early fusion and late fusion
strategies. Specifically, stacked denoising autoencoders are proposed to
separately learn both appearance and motion features as well as a joint
representation (early fusion). Based on the learned representations, multiple
one-class SVM models are used to predict the anomaly scores of each input,
which are then integrated with a late fusion strategy for final anomaly
detection. We evaluate the proposed method on two publicly available video
surveillance datasets, showing competitive performance with respect to state of
the art approaches.Comment: Oral paper in BMVC 201
Contextual anomaly detection in crowded surveillance scenes
AbstractThis work addresses the problem of detecting human behavioural anomalies in crowded surveillance environments. We focus in particular on the problem of detecting subtle anomalies in a behaviourally heterogeneous surveillance scene. To reach this goal we implement a novel unsupervised context-aware process. We propose and evaluate a method of utilising social context and scene context to improve behaviour analysis. We find that in a crowded scene the application of Mutual Information based social context permits the ability to prevent self-justifying groups and propagate anomalies in a social network, granting a greater anomaly detection capability. Scene context uniformly improves the detection of anomalies in both datasets. The strength of our contextual features is demonstrated by the detection of subtly abnormal behaviours, which otherwise remain indistinguishable from normal behaviour
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
