An improved contextual information based approach for anomaly detection via adaptive inference for surveillance application
(Springer Verlag service@springer.de, 2017) Rao, T.J.N.; Girish, G.N.; Rajan, J.
Anomalous event detection is the foremost objective of a visual surveillance system. Using contextual information and probabilistic inference mechanisms is a recent trend in this direction. The proposed method is an improved version of the Spatio-Temporal Compositions (STC) concept, introduced earlier. Specific modifications are applied to STC method to reduce time complexity and improve the performance. The non-overlapping volume and ensemble formation employed reduce the iterations in codebook construction and probabilistic modeling steps. A simpler procedure for codebook construction has been proposed. A non-parametric probabilistic model and adaptive inference mechanisms to avoid the use of a single experimental threshold value are the other contributions. An additional feature such as event-driven high-resolution localization of unusual events is incorporated to aid in surveillance application. The proposed method produced promising results when compared to STC and other state-of-the-art approaches when experimented on seven standard datasets with simple/complex actions, in non-crowded/crowded environments.

Anomalous event detection methodologies for surveillance application: An insight
(IGI Global, 2018) Rao, T.J.N.; Girish, G.N.; Tahiliani, M.P.; Rajan, J.
Automatic visual surveillance systems serve as in-place threat detection devices being able to detect and recognize anomalous activities which otherwise would lead to potentially harmful situations, and alert the concerned authorities to take appropriate counter actions. However, development of an efficient visual surveillance system is quite challenging. Designing an unusual activity detection mechanism which is accurate and real-time is the primary challenge. Review of literature carried out led to the inference that there are some attributes which are essential for a successful unusual event detection mechanism for surveillance application. The desired approach must detect genuine anomalies in real-world scenarios with acceptable accuracy, should adapt to changing environments and, should require less computational time and memory. In this chapter, an attempt has been made to provide an insight into some of the prominent approaches employed by researchers to solve these issues with a hope that it will benefit researchers towards developing a better surveillance system. © 2019 by IGI Global.
