    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. © Springer Science+Business Media Singapore 2017.

    Automated Parking System in Smart Campus Using Computer Vision Technique
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2019) Banerjee, S.; Ashwin, T.S.; Guddeti, R.M.R.
    In today's world we need to maintain safety and security of the people around us. So we need to have a well connected surveillance system for keeping active information of various locations according to our needs. A real-time object detection is very important for many applications such as traffic monitoring, classroom monitoring, security rescue, and parking system. From past decade, Convolutional Neural Networks is evolved as a powerful models for recognizing images and videos and it is widely used in the computer vision related work for the best and most used approach for different problem scenario related to object detection and localization. In this work, we have proposed a deep convolutional network architecture to automate the parking system in smart campus with modified Single-shot Multibox Detector (SSD) approach. Further, we created our dataset to train and test the proposed computer vision technique. The experimental results demonstrated an accuracy of 71.2% for the created dataset. © 2019 IEEE.

    Optimized Object Detection Technique in Video Surveillance System Using Depth Images
    (Springer, 2020) Shahzad Alam, M.; Ashwin, T.S.; Guddeti, R.M.R.
    In real-time surveillance and intrusion detection, it is difficult to rely only on RGB image-based videos as the accuracy of detected object is low in the low light condition and if the video surveillance area is completely dark then the object will not be detected. Hence, in this paper, we propose a method which can increase the accuracy of object detection even in low light conditions. This paper also shows how the light intensity affects the probability of object detection in RGB, depth, and infrared images. The depth information is obtained from Kinect sensor and YOLO architecture is used to detect the object in real-time. We experimented the proposed method using real-time surveillance system which gave very promising results when applied on depth images which were taken in low light conditions. Further, in real-time object detection, we cannot apply object detection technique before applying any image preprocessing. So we investigated the depth image by which the accuracy of object detection can be improved without applying any image preprocessing. Experimental results demonstrated that depth image (96%) outperforms RGB image (48%) and infrared image (54%) in extreme low light conditions. © 2020, Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.

    Automated Traffic Light Signal Violation Detection System Using Convolutional Neural Network
    (Springer, 2020) Bordia, B.; Nishanth, N.; Patel, S.; Anand Kumar, M.; Rudra, B.
    Automated traffic light violation detection system relies on the detection of traffic light color from the video captured with the CCTV camera, detection of the white safety line before the traffic signal and vehicles. Detection of the vehicles crossing traffic signals is generally done with the help of sensors which get triggered when the traffic signal turns red or yellow. Sometimes, these sensors get triggered even when the person crosses the line or some animal crossover or because of some bad weather that gives false results. In this paper, we present a software which will work on image processing and convolutional neural network to detect the traffic signals, vehicles and the white safety line present in front of the traffic signals. We present an efficient way to detect the white safety line in this paper combined with the detection of traffic lights trained on the Bosch dataset and vehicle detection using the TensorFlow object detection SSD model. © 2020, Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.

    Hardware Accelerator for Object Detection using Tiny YOLO-v3
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2021) Sharma, M.; Rahul, R.; Madhusudan, S.; Deepu, S.P.; Sumam David, S.
    For applications that require object detection to be performed in real-time, this paper presents a custom hardware accelerator, implementing state of the art Tiny YOLO-v3 algorithm. The proposed architecture achieves a reasonable tradeoff between the speed of computation (measured in frames per second or FPS) and the hardware resources required. Each CNN layer is pipelined and parameterized to make the complete design re-configurable. The proposed hardware accelerator was synthesized using the SCL(Semi-Conductor Laboratory, India) 180 nm CMOS process and also using Vivado Xilinx software with Virtex Ultrascale+ FPGA as the target device. The pipelined architecture, along with other architectural novelties, provided a higher frame-rate of 32.1 FPS and a performance of 166.4 GOPS at 200 MHz clock frequency. © 2021 IEEE.

    YOLOv5 Model-based Ship Detection in High Resolution SAR Images
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2023) Sapna, S.; Sandhya, S.; Shetty, R.D.; Pais, S.M.; Bhattacharjee, S.
    Detection of ships in Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) images play a crucial role in maritime surveillance, most importantly under complex sea conditions. SAR permits observation in any weather conditions, at all hours of the day and night. At present, the ship detection from SAR images is a notable area of research since it is very difficult to detect the ships in the SAR images using traditional object or target detection algorithms. In this work, a You Only Look Once version 5 (YOLOv5) based ship detection model from SAR images with faster training speed and higher accuracy is implemented and tested. This model achieved a mean average precision (mAP) of 96.2% with a training time of 8.63 hours. This work also provides a comparative analysis with the existing methods for detection of ships in SAR images. The comparison shows that the YOLOv5 based model performs better in terms of both mean average precision and training time when compared to the existing models. © 2023 IEEE.

    Detection of Obstacles and Intelligent Narrow Road Navigation for Autonomous Vehicles - A Hardware Approach
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2023) Gavasane, U.; Ananthanarayana, V.S.
    Obstacle detection is the most important functionality in the field of autonomous vehicles. One of the common challenges is detecting a narrow driving lane and navigating through it while performing obstacle identification and handling them. This problem falls under categories such as single-lane road block navigation, ad-hoc obstacles, narrow road path-finding, bridges, tunnel navigation, etc. In this work, we present an algorithm to handle these cases to perform successful detection and navigation through them. The lane navigation algorithm is used to perform autonomous driving under normal circumstances, and under narrow road circumstances, the Narrow Road Navigation (NRN) algorithm will be deployed. As proof of concept, we present a hardware prototype of a miniature car that will use the NRN algorithm. The hardware components and experimental results show that a successful implementation of the said algorithm is possible and can be used in actual real-life models and scenarios. © 2023 IEEE.
