A study of deep convolutional auto-encoders for anomaly detection in videos

in brazil •  7 years ago 

By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Journal of Robotics & Machine Learning -- Data detailed on Pattern Analysis have been presented. According to news reporting originating in Curitiba, Brazil, by VerticalNews journalists, research stated, “The detection of anomalous behaviors in automated video surveillance is a recurrent topic in recent computer vision research. Depending on the application field, anomalies can present different characteristics and challenges.”

Financial support for this research came from CNPq.

The news reporters obtained a quote from the research from the Federal University of Technology, “Convolutional Neural Networks have achieved the state-of-the-art performance for object recognition in recent years, since they learn features automatically during the training process. From the anomaly detection perspective, the Convolutional Autoencoder (CAE) is an interesting choice, since it captures the 2D structure in image sequences during the learning process. This work uses a CAE in the anomaly detection context, by applying the reconstruction error of each frame as an anomaly score. By exploring the CAE architecture, we also propose a method for aggregating high-level spatial and temporal features with the input frames and investigate how they affect the CAE performance. An easy-to-use measure of video spatial complexity was devised and correlated with the classification performance of the CAE. The proposed methods were evaluated by means of several experiments with public-domain datasets.”

According to the news reporters, the research concluded: “The promising results support further research in this area.”
