Estimating Anomality of the Video Sequences for Surveillance Using 1-Class SVM

We have proposed a method to detect and quantitatively extract anomalies from surveillance videos. Using our method, anomalies are detected as patterns based on spatio-temporal features that are outliers in new feature space. Conventional anomaly detection methods use features such as tracks or local spatio-temporal features, both of which provide insufficient timing information. Using our method, the principal components of spatio-temporal features of change are extracted from the frames of video sequences of several seconds duration. This enables anomalies based on movement irregularity, both position and speed, to be determined and thus permits the automatic detection of anomal events in sequences of constant length without regard to their start and end. We used a 1-class SVM, which is a non-supervised outlier detection method. The output from the SVM indicates the distance between the outlier and the concentrated base pattern. We demonstrated that the anomalies extracted using our method subjectively matched perceived irregularities in the pattern of movements. Our method is useful in surveillance services because the captured images can be shown in the order of anomality, which significantly reduces the time needed.
