Eye in the Sky: Real-time Drone Surveillance System (DSS) for Violent Individuals Identification using ScatterNet Hybrid Deep Learning Network
Drone systems have been deployed by various law enforcement agencies to
monitor hostiles, spy on foreign drug cartels, conduct border control
operations, etc. This paper introduces a real-time drone surveillance system to
identify violent individuals in public areas. The system first uses the Feature
Pyramid Network to detect humans from aerial images. The image region with the
human is used by the proposed ScatterNet Hybrid Deep Learning (SHDL) network
for human pose estimation. The orientations between the limbs of the estimated
pose are next used to identify the violent individuals. The proposed deep
network can learn meaningful representations quickly using ScatterNet and
structural priors with relatively fewer labeled examples. The system detects
the violent individuals in real-time by processing the drone images in the
cloud. This research also introduces the aerial violent individual dataset used
for training the deep network which hopefully may encourage researchers
interested in using deep learning for aerial surveillance. The pose estimation
and violent individuals identification performance is compared with the
state-of-the-art techniques.Comment: To Appear in the Efficient Deep Learning for Computer Vision (ECV)

Fast and accurate object detection in high resolution 4K and 8K video using GPUs
Machine learning has celebrated a lot of achievements on computer vision
tasks such as object detection, but the traditionally used models work with
relatively low resolution images. The resolution of recording devices is
gradually increasing and there is a rising need for new methods of processing
high resolution data. We propose an attention pipeline method which uses two
staged evaluation of each image or video frame under rough and refined
resolution to limit the total number of necessary evaluations. For both stages,
we make use of the fast object detection model YOLO v2. We have implemented our
model in code, which distributes the work across GPUs. We maintain high
accuracy while reaching the average performance of 3-6 fps on 4K video and 2
fps on 8K video.Comment: 6 pages, 12 figures, Best Paper Finalist at IEEE High Performance

Security System Based on Suspicious Behavior Detection
In recent years, the demand for image analysis applications of video surveillance has grown rapidly. The latest advances in video surveillance have aimed at automating the
monitoring itself, so that it is a computer (not the security
personnel) what observes the images and detects suspicious
behavior or events. In this context, we present system for the
automatic detection of suspicious behavior in public buildings, that obtains high resolution image of the individual
or individuals who have activated the alarm in the systePeer Reviewe
Detect the unexpected: a science for surveillance
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to outline a strategy for research development focused on addressing the neglected role of visual perception in real life tasks such as policing surveillance and command and control settings. Approach – The scale of surveillance task in modern control room is expanding as technology increases input capacity at an accelerating rate. The authors review recent literature highlighting the difficulties that apply to modern surveillance and give examples of how poor detection of the unexpected can be, and how surprising this deficit can be. Perceptual phenomena such as change blindness are linked to the perceptual processes undertaken by law-enforcement personnel. Findings – A scientific programme is outlined for how detection deficits can best be addressed in the context of a multidisciplinary collaborative agenda between researchers and practitioners. The development of a cognitive research field specifically examining the occurrence of perceptual “failures” provides an opportunity for policing agencies to relate laboratory findings in psychology to their own fields of day-to-day enquiry. Originality/value – The paper shows, with examples, where interdisciplinary research may best be focussed on evaluating practical solutions and on generating useable guidelines on procedure and practice. It also argues that these processes should be investigated in real and simulated context-specific studies to confirm the validity of the findings in these new applied scenarios
Advancements In Crowd-Monitoring System: A Comprehensive Analysis of Systematic Approaches and Automation Algorithms: State-of-The-Art
Growing apprehensions surrounding public safety have captured the attention
of numerous governments and security agencies across the globe. These entities
are increasingly acknowledging the imperative need for reliable and secure
crowd-monitoring systems to address these concerns. Effectively managing human
gatherings necessitates proactive measures to prevent unforeseen events or
complications, ensuring a safe and well-coordinated environment. The scarcity
of research focusing on crowd monitoring systems and their security
implications has given rise to a burgeoning area of investigation, exploring
potential approaches to safeguard human congregations effectively. Crowd
monitoring systems depend on a bifurcated approach, encompassing vision-based
and non-vision-based technologies. An in-depth analysis of these two
methodologies will be conducted in this research. The efficacy of these
approaches is contingent upon the specific environment and temporal context in
which they are deployed, as they each offer distinct advantages. This paper
endeavors to present an in-depth analysis of the recent incorporation of
artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms and models into automated systems,
emphasizing their contemporary applications and effectiveness in various
contexts
