Classifying time series data using neural networks is a challenging problem when the length of the data varies. Video object trajectories, which are key to many of the visual surveillance applications, are often found to be of varying length. If such trajectories are used to understand the behavior (normal or anomalous) of moving objects, they need to be represented correctly. In this paper, we propose video object trajectory classification and anomaly detection using a hybrid Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and Variational Autoencoder (VAE) architecture. First, we introduce a high level representation of object trajectories using color gradient form. In the next stage, a semi-supervised way to annotate moving object trajectories extracted using Temporal Unknown Incremental Clustering (TUIC), has been applied for trajectory class labeling. Anomalous trajectories are separated using t-Distributed Stochastic Neighbor Embedding (t-SNE). Finally, a hybrid CNN-VAE architecture has been used for trajectory classification and anomaly detection. The results obtained using publicly available surveillance video datasets reveal that the proposed method can successfully identify some of the important traffic anomalies such as vehicles not following lane driving, sudden speed variations, abrupt termination of vehicle movement, and vehicles moving in wrong directions. The proposed method is able to detect above anomalies at higher accuracy as compared to existing anomaly detection methods.

We conduct an in-depth exploration of different strategies for doing event detection in videos using convolutional neural networks (CNNs) trained for image classification. We study different ways of performing spatial and temporal pooling, feature normalization, choice of CNN layers as well as choice of classifiers. Making judicious choices along these dimensions led to a very significant increase in performance over more naive approaches that have been used till now. We evaluate our approach on the challenging TRECVID MED14 dataset with two popular CNN architectures pretrained on ImageNet. On this MED14 dataset, our methods, based entirely on image-trained CNN features, can outperform several state-of-the-art non-CNN models. Our proposed late fusion of CNN- and motion-based features can further increase the mean average precision (mAP) on MED14 from 34.95% to 38.74%. The fusion approach achieves the state-of-the-art classification performance on the challenging UCF-101 dataset.
Anomaly activities such as robbery, explosion, accidents, etc. need immediate actions for preventing loss of human life and property in real world surveillance systems. Although the recent automation in surveillance systems are capable of detecting the anomalies, but they still need human efforts for categorizing the anomalies and taking necessary preventive actions. This is due to the lack of methodology performing both anomaly detection and classification for real world scenarios. Thinking of a fully automatized surveillance system, which is capable of both detecting and classifying the anomalies that need immediate actions, a joint anomaly detection and classification method is a pressing need. The task of joint detection and classification of anomalies becomes challenging due to the unavailability of dense annotated videos pertaining to anomalous classes, which is a crucial factor for training modern deep architecture. Furthermore, doing it through manual human effort seems impossible. Thus, we propose a method that jointly handles the anomaly detection and classification in a single framework by adopting a weakly-supervised learning paradigm. In weakly-supervised learning instead of dense temporal annotations, only video-level labels are sufficient for learning. The proposed model is validated on a large-scale publicly available UCF-Crime dataset, achieving state-of-the-art results.
Anomaly detection is critically important for intelligent surveillance systems to detect in a timely manner any malicious activities. Many video anomaly detection approaches using deep learning methods focus on a single camera video stream with a fixed scenario. These deep learning methods use large-scale training data with large complexity. As a solution, in this paper, we show how to use pre-trained convolutional neural net models to perform feature extraction and context mining, and then use denoising autoencoder with relatively low model complexity to provide efficient and accurate surveillance anomaly detection, which can be useful for the resource-constrained devices such as edge devices of the Internet of Things (IoT). Our anomaly detection model makes decisions based on the high-level features derived from the selected embedded computer vision models such as object classification and object detection. Additionally, we derive contextual properties from the high-level features to further improve the performance of our video anomaly detection method. We use two UCSD datasets to demonstrate that our approach with relatively low model complexity can achieve comparable performance compared to the state-of-the-art approaches.
In this paper, we propose a discriminative video representation for event detection over a large scale video dataset when only limited hardware resources are available. The focus of this paper is to effectively leverage deep Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) to advance event detection, where only frame level static descriptors can be extracted by the existing CNN toolkit. This paper makes two contributions to the inference of CNN video representation. First, while average pooling and max pooling have long been the standard approaches to aggregating frame level static features, we show that performance can be significantly improved by taking advantage of an appropriate encoding method. Second, we propose using a set of latent concept descriptors as the frame descriptor, which enriches visual information while keeping it computationally affordable. The integration of the two contributions results in a new state-of-the-art performance in event detection over the largest video datasets. Compared to improved Dense Trajectories, which has been recognized as the best video representation for event detection, our new representation improves the Mean Average Precision (mAP) from 27.6% to 36.8% for the TRECVID MEDTest 14 dataset and from 34.0% to 44.6% for the TRECVID MEDTest 13 dataset. This work is the core part of the winning solution of our CMU-Informedia team in TRECVID MED 2014 competition.
Recently, people tried to use a few anomalies for video anomaly detection (VAD) instead of only normal data during the training process. A side effect of data imbalance occurs when a few abnormal data face a vast number of normal data. The latest VAD works use triplet loss or data re-sampling strategy to lessen this problem. However, there is still no elaborately designed structure for discriminative VAD with a few anomalies. In this paper, we propose a DiscRiminative-gEnerative duAl Memory (DREAM) anomaly detection model to take advantage of a few anomalies and solve data imbalance. We use two shallow discriminators to tighten the normal feature distribution boundary along with a generator for the next frame prediction. Further, we propose a dual memory module to obtain a sparse feature representation in both normality and abnormality space. As a result, DREAM not only solves the data imbalance problem but also learn a reasonable feature space. Further theoretical analysis shows that our DREAM also works for the unknown anomalies. Comparing with the previous methods on UCSD Ped1, UCSD Ped2, CUHK Avenue, and ShanghaiTech, our model outperforms all the baselines with no extra parameters. The ablation study demonstrates the effectiveness of our dual memory module and discriminative-generative network.
