Coherent nature of crowd movement allows representing the crowd motion using sparse features. However, surveillance videos recorded at different periods of time are likely to have different crowd densities and motion characteristics. These varying scene properties necessitate use of different models for an effective representation of behaviour at different periods. In this study, a density aware approach is proposed to detect motion-based anomalies for scenes having varying crowd densities. In the training, the sparse features are modelled using separate hidden Markov models, each of which becomes an expert for specific scene characteristics. These models are then used for anomaly detection. The proposed method automatically adapts to the changing scene dynamics by switching to the most representative model at each frame. The authors demonstrate the effectiveness and real-time performance of the proposed method on real-life datasets as well as on simulated crowd videos that they generated and made publicly available to download.

We propose a method to detect events and event boundaries in soccer videos by using web-casting texts and audio-visual features. The events and their inaccurate time information given in web-casting texts need to be aligned with the visual content of the video. We overcome this issue by utilizing textual, visual and audio features. Existing methods assume that the time at which the event occurs is given precisely (in seconds). However, most web-casting texts presented by popular organizations such as uefa.c...
Abnormal Crowd Behavior Detection Using Novel Optical Flow-Based Features
Direkoglu, Cem; Sah, Melike; O'Connor, Noel E. (2017-09-01)
In this paper, we propose a novel optical flow based features for abnormal crowd behaviour detection. The proposed feature is mainly based on the angle difference computed between the optical flow vectors in the current frame and in the previous frame at each pixel location. The angle difference information is also combined with the optical flow magnitude to produce new, effective and direction invariant event features. A one-class SVM is utilized to learn normal crowd behavior. If a test sample deviates si...

Hand-crafted versus learned representations for audio event detection
Kucukbay, Selver Ezgi; Yazıcı, Adnan; Kalkan, Sinan (2022-04-01)
Audio Event Detection (AED) pertains to identifying the types of events in audio signals. AED is essential for applications requiring decisions based on audio signals, which can be critical, for example, for health, surveillance and security applications. Despite the proven benefits of deep learning in obtaining the best representation for solving a problem, AED studies still generally employ hand-crafted representations even when deep learning is used for solving the AED task. Intrigued by this, we investi...
