异常行为检测是计算机视觉中一个具有挑战性的研究领域。该领域的进展使得能够利用监控摄像头画面自动检测危险行为。在其他研究中经常被忽视的一种危险行为是车流中的投掷动作，这是我们智慧城市（Smart City）项目为提升公共安全而提出的独特需求之一。本文提出了一种利用深度学习检测监控视频中投掷动作的解决方案。目前，投掷动作数据集尚未公开。为满足智慧城市项目的应用场景需求，我们首先构建了全新的公开“Throwing Action”数据集，其中包含271段由行人、骑行者和汽车驾驶员等交通参与者实施投掷动作的视频，以及130段不含投掷动作的正常视频。其次，我们在UCF-Crime和Throwing-Action数据集上比较了不同特征提取器在异常检测方法中的性能。所考察的特征提取器包括Convolutional 3D（C3D）网络、Inflated 3D ConvNet（I3D）网络和Multi-Fiber Network（MFNet）。最后，通过使用Adam优化器替代Adadelta，并提出一种覆盖交通中多种正常情形的均值正常损失函数，异常检测算法的性能得到提升。这两方面都带来了更好的异常检测性能。除此之外，所提出的均值正常损失函数降低了组合数据集上的误报率。实验结果在Throwing-Action数据集和组合数据集上分别达到86.10和80.13的ROC曲线下面积。
英文摘要：
Anomalous behavior detection is a challenging research area within computer vision. Progress in this area enables automated detection of dangerous behavior using surveillance camera feeds. A dangerous behavior that is often overlooked in other research is the throwing action in traffic flow, which is one of the unique requirements of our Smart City project to enhance public safety. This paper proposes a solution for throwing action detection in surveillance videos using deep learning. At present, datasets for throwing actions are not publicly available. To address the use-case of our Smart City project, we first generate the novel public 'Throwing Action' dataset, consisting of 271 videos of throwing actions performed by traffic participants, such as pedestrians, bicyclists, and car drivers, and 130 normal videos without throwing actions. Second, we compare the performance of different feature extractors for our anomaly detection method on the UCF-Crime and Throwing-Action datasets. The explored feature extractors are the Convolutional 3D (C3D) network, the Inflated 3D ConvNet (I3D) network, and the Multi-Fiber Network (MFNet). Finally, the performance of the anomaly detection algorithm is improved by applying the Adam optimizer instead of Adadelta, and proposing a mean normal loss function that covers the multitude of normal situations in traffic. Both aspects yield better anomaly detection performance. Besides this, the proposed mean normal loss function lowers the false alarm rate on the combined dataset. The experimental results reach an area under the ROC curve of 86.10 for the Throwing-Action dataset, and 80.13 on the combined dataset, respectively.

Automatic traffic accidents detection has appealed to the machine vision community due to its implications on the development of autonomous intelligent transportation systems (ITS) and importance to traffic safety. Most previous studies on efficient analysis and prediction of traffic accidents, however, have used small-scale datasets with limited coverage, which limits their effect and applicability. Existing datasets in traffic accidents are either small-scale, not from surveillance cameras, not open-sourced, or not built for freeway scenes. Since accidents happened in freeways tend to cause …

Optimized scene representation is an important characteristic of a framework for detecting abnormalities on live videos. One of the challenges for detecting abnormalities in live videos is real-time detection of objects in a non-parametric way. Another challenge is to efficiently represent the state of objects temporally across frames. In this paper, a Gibbs sampling based heuristic model referred to as Temporal Unknown Incremental Clustering (TUIC) has been proposed to cluster pixels with motion. Pixel motion is first detected using optical flow and a Bayesian algorithm has been applied to as…

The data storage has been one of the bottlenecks in surveillance systems. The conventional video compression algorithms such as H.264 and H.265 do not fully utilize the low information density characteristic of the surveillance video. In this paper, we propose a video compression method that extracts and compresses the foreground and background of the video separately. The compression ratio is greatly improved by sharing background information among multiple adjacent frames through an adaptive background updating and interpolation module. Besides, we present two different schemes to compress t…

Gun violence is a severe problem in the world, particularly in the United States. Deep learning methods have been studied to detect guns in surveillance video cameras or smart IP cameras and to send a real-time alert to security personals. One problem for the development of gun detection algorithms is the lack of large public datasets. In this work, we first publish a dataset with 51K annotated gun images for gun detection and other 51K cropped gun chip images for gun classification we collect from a few different sources. To our knowledge, this is the largest dataset for the study of gun dete…

The automatic identification system (AIS) and video cameras have been widely exploited for vessel traffic surveillance in inland waterways. The AIS data could provide the vessel identity and dynamic information on vessel position and movements. In contrast, the video data could describe the visual appearances of moving vessels, but without knowing the information on identity, position and movements, etc. To further improve vessel traffic surveillance, it becomes necessary to fuse the AIS and video data to simultaneously capture the visual features, identity and dynamic information for the vess…

Anomalous activity recognition deals with identifying the patterns and events that vary from the normal stream. In a surveillance paradigm, these events range from abuse to fighting and road accidents to snatching, etc. Due to the sparse occurrence of anomalous events, anomalous activity recognition from surveillance videos is a challenging research task. The approaches reported can be generally categorized as handcrafted and deep learning-based. Most of the reported studies address binary classification i.e. anomaly detection from surveillance videos. But these reported approaches did not add…
Foreground (FG) pixel labelling plays a vital role in video surveillance. Recent engineering solutions have attempted to exploit the efficacy of deep learning (DL) models initially targeted for image classification to deal with FG pixel labelling. One major drawback of such strategy is the lacking delineation of visual objects when training samples are limited. To grapple with this issue, we introduce a multi-view receptive field fully convolutional neural network (MV-FCN) that harness recent seminal ideas, such as, fully convolutional structure, inception modules, and residual networking. The…
With the development of deep neural networks, the performance of crowd counting and pixel-wise density estimation are continually being refreshed. Despite this, there are still two challenging problems in this field: 1) current supervised learning needs a large amount of training data, but collecting and annotating them is difficult; 2) existing methods can not generalize well to the unseen domain. A recently released synthetic crowd dataset alleviates these two problems. However, the domain gap between the real-world data and synthetic images decreases the models' performance. To reduce the g…
Realtime and intelligent video surveillance via camera networks involve computation-intensive vision detection tasks with massive video data, which is crucial for safety in the edge-enabled industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). Multiple video streams compete for limited communication resources on the link between edge devices and camera networks, resulting in considerable communication congestion. It postpones the completion time and degrades the accuracy of vision detection tasks. Thus, achieving high accuracy of vision detection tasks under the communication constraints and vision task deadl…
Anomaly detection in surveillance videos has been recently gaining attention. A challenging aspect of high-dimensional applications such as video surveillance is continual learning. While current state-of-the-art deep learning approaches perform well on existing public datasets, they fail to work in a continual learning framework due to computational and storage issues. Furthermore, online decision making is an important but mostly neglected factor in this domain. Motivated by these research gaps, we propose an online anomaly detection method for surveillance videos using transfer learning and…
This work is in the field of video surveillance including motion detection. The video surveillance is one of essential techniques for automatic video analysis to extract crucial information or relevant scenes in video surveillance systems. The aim of our work is to propose solutions for the automatic detection of moving objects in real time with a surveillance camera. The detected objects are objects that have some geometric shape (circle, ellipse, square, and rectangle).
Video capture is the most extensively utilized human perception source due to its intuitively understandable nature. A desired video capture often requires multiple environmental conditions such as ample ambient-light, unobstructed space, and proper camera angle. In contrast, wireless measurements are more ubiquitous and have fewer environmental constraints. In this paper, we propose CSI2Video, a novel cross-modal method that leverages only WiFi signals from commercial devices and a source of human identity information to recover fine-grained surveillance video in a real-time manner. Specifica…

Surveillance video parsing, which segments the video frames into several labels, e.g., face, pants, left-leg, has wide applications. However,pixel-wisely annotating all frames is tedious and inefficient. In this paper, we develop a Single frame Video Parsing (SVP) method which requires only one labeled frame per video in training stage. To parse one particular frame, the video segment preceding the frame is jointly considered. SVP (1) roughly parses the frames within the video segment, (2) estimates the optical flow between frames and (3) fuses the rough parsing results warped by optical flow …

This paper strives for the detection of real-world anomalies such as burglaries and assaults in surveillance videos. Although anomalies are generally local, as they happen in a limited portion of the frame, none of the previous works on the subject has ever studied the contribution of locality. In this work, we explore the impact of considering spatiotemporal tubes instead of whole-frame video segments. For this purpose, we enrich existing surveillance videos with spatial and temporal annotations: it is the first dataset for anomaly detection with bounding box supervision in both its train and…
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.

We generate heatmap and footmap visualizations to describe spatially pooled trajectory patterns with respect to time and location. We also present two app…

Multiple-object tracking and behavior analysis have been the essential parts of surveillance video analysis for public security and urban management. With billions of surveillance video captured all over the world, multiple-object tracking and behavior analysis by manual labor are cumbersome and cost expensive. Due to the rapid development of deep learning algorithms in recent years, automatic object tracking and behavior analysis put forward an urgent demand on a large scale well-annotated surveillance video dataset that can reflect the diverse, congested, and complicated scenarios in real ap…

Surveillance footage can catch a wide range of realistic anomalies. This research suggests using a weakly supervised strategy to avoid annotating anomalous segments in training videos, which is time consuming. In this approach only video level labels are used to obtain frame level anomaly scores. Weakly supervised video anomaly detection (WSVAD) suffers from the wrong identification of abnormal and normal instances during the training process. Therefore it is important to extract better quality features from the available videos. WIth this motivation, the present paper uses better quality tran…

In modern intelligent video surveillance systems, automatic anomaly detection through computer vision analytics plays a pivotal role which not only significantly increases monitoring efficiency but also reduces the burden on live monitoring. Anomalies in videos are broadly defined as events or activities that are unusual and signify irregular behavior. The goal of anomaly detection is to temporally or spatially localize the anomaly events in video sequences. Temporal localization (i.e. indicating the start and end frames of the anomaly event in a video) is referred to as frame-level detection.…
Visual face tracking is one of the most important tasks in video surveillance systems. However, due to the variations in pose, scale, expression, and illumination it is considered to be a difficult task. Recent studies show that deep learning methods have a significant potential in object tracking tasks and adaptive feature selection methods can boost their performance. Motivated by these, we propose an end-to-end attentive deep learning based tracker, that is build on top of the state-of-the-art GOTURN tracker, for the task of real-time visual face tracking in video surveillance. Our method o…

Predicting on-road abnormalities such as road accidents or traffic violations is a challenging task in traffic surveillance. If such predictions can be done in advance, many damages can be controlled. Here in our wok, we tried to formulate a solution for automated collision prediction in traffic surveillance videos with computer vision and deep networks. It involves object detection, tracking, trajectory estimation, and collision prediction. We propose an end-to-end collision prediction system, named as COLLIDE-PRED, that intelligently integrates the information of past and future trajectories…
Multi-person tracking plays a critical role in the analysis of surveillance video. However, most existing work focus on shorter-term (e.g. minute-long or hour-long) video sequences. Therefore, we propose a multi-person tracking algorithm for very long-term (e.g. month-long) multi-camera surveillance scenarios. Long-term tracking is challenging because 1) the apparel/appearance of the same person will vary greatly over multiple days and 2) a person will leave and re-enter the scene numerous times. To tackle these challenges, we leverage face recognition information, which is robust to apparel c…

This study examines the relationship between H.264 video compression and the performance of an object detection network (YOLOv5). We curated a set of 50 surveillance videos and annotated targets of interest (people, bikes, and vehicles). Videos were encoded at 5 quality levels using Constant Rate Factor (CRF) values in the set {22,32,37,42,47}. YOLOv5 was applied to compressed videos and detection performance was analyzed at each CRF level. Test results indicate that the detection performance is generally robust to moderate levels of compression; using a CRF value of 37 instead of 22 leads to …

When we say a person is texting, can you tell the person is walking or sitting? Emphatically, no. In order to solve this incomplete representation problem, this paper presents a sub-action descriptor for detailed action detection. The sub-action descriptor consists of three levels: the posture, the locomotion, and the gesture level. The three levels give three sub-action categories for one action to address the representation problem. The proposed action detection model simultaneously localizes and recognizes the actions of multiple individuals in video surveillance using appearance-based temp…

We present a content-based retrieval method for long surveillance videos both for wide-area (Airborne) as well as near-field imagery (CCTV). Our goal is to retrieve video segments, with a focus on detecting objects moving on routes, that match user-defined events of interest. The sheer size and remote locations where surveillance videos are acquired, necessitates highly compressed representations that are also meaningful for supporting user-defined queries. To address these challenges we archive long-surveillance video through lightweight processing based on low-level local spatio-temporal ext…
Anomaly detection in surveillance videos is an important research problem in computer vision. In this paper, we propose ADNet, an anomaly detection network, which utilizes temporal convolutions to localize anomalies in videos. The model works online by accepting consecutive windows consisting of fixed-number of video clips. Features extracted from video clips in a window are fed to ADNet, which allows to localize anomalies in videos effectively. We propose the AD Loss function to improve abnormal segment detection performance of ADNet. Additionally, we propose to use F1@k metric for temporal a…

In multi-camera video surveillance, it is challenging to represent videos from different cameras properly and fuse them efficiently for specific applications such as human activity recognition and clustering. In this paper, a novel representation for multi-camera video data, namely the Product Grassmann Manifold (PGM), is proposed to model video sequences as points on the Grassmann manifold and integrate them as a whole in the product manifold form. Additionally, with a new geometry metric on the product manifold, the conventional Low Rank Representation (LRR) model is extended onto PGM and th…
Anomaly detection through video analysis is of great importance to detect any anomalous vehicle/human behavior at a traffic intersection. While most existing works use neural networks and conventional machine learning methods based on provided dataset, we will use object recognition (Faster R-CNN) to identify objects labels and their corresponding location in the video scene as the first step to implement anomaly detection. Then, the optical flow will be utilized to identify adaptive traffic flows in each region of the frame. Basically, we propose an alternative method for unusual activity det…

Face recognition (FR) systems for video surveillance (VS) applications attempt to accurately detect the presence of target individuals over a distributed network of cameras. In video-based FR systems, facial models of target individuals are designed a priori during enrollment using a limited number of reference still images or video data. These facial models are not typically representative of faces being observed during operations due to large variations in illumination, pose, scale, occlusion, blur, and to camera inter-operability. Specifically, in still-to-video FR application, a single hig…

VERSA provides a general-purpose framework for defining and recognizing events in live or recorded surveillance video streams. The approach for event recognition in VERSA is using a declarative logic language to define the spatial and temporal relationships that characterize a given event or activity. Doing so requires the definition of certain fundamental spatial and temporal relationships and a high-level syntax for specifying frame templates and query parameters. Although the handling of uncertainty in the current VERSA implementation is simplistic, the language and architecture is amenable…

This work offers a design of a video surveillance system based on a soft biometric -- gait identification from MoCap data. The main focus is on two substantial issues of the video surveillance scenario: (1) the walkers do not cooperate in providing learning data to establish their identities and (2) the data are often noisy or incomplete. We show that only a few examples of human gait cycles are required to learn a projection of raw MoCap data onto a low-dimensional sub-space where the identities are well separable. Latent features learned by Maximum Margin Criterion (MMC) method discriminate …

Existing methods usually assume the vehicle images are well cropped from the surveillance videos, then use visual attributes, like colors and types, or license plate numbers to match the target vehicle in the image set. However, a complete vehicle search system should consider the problems of vehicle detection, representation, indexing, storage, matching, and so on. Besides, attribute-based search cannot accurately find the same vehicle due to intra-instance changes in different ca…

While most previous approaches have focused on completely encrypting the video stream, we introduce a spatial encryption scheme by blurring the image/video contents to create a CBP. Our goal is to obscure detail in public video streams by blurring while allowing behavior to be recognized and to quickly deblur the stream so that details are available if behavior is recognized as suspicious. We create a CBP by blurring the same latent image with two unknown kernels. The two ke…

Surveillance videos are able to capture a variety of realistic anomalies. In this paper, we propose to learn anomalies by exploiting both normal and anomalous videos. To avoid annotating the anomalous segments or clips in training videos, which is very time consuming, we propose to learn anomaly through the deep multiple instance ranking framework by leveraging weakly labeled training videos, i.e. the training labels (anomalous or normal) are at video-level instead of clip-level. In our approach, we consider normal and anomalous videos as bags and video segments as instances in multiple instan…
