The experiment proves that the model proposed in this paper has a better detection ability for the smalland medium-sized standing human body posture in video test scenes on the EMV-2 dataset.

An Efficient Attention-Based Strategy for Anomaly Detection in Surveillance Video

In the present technological world,surveillance cameras generate an immense amount of video data from various sources,making its scrutiny tough for computer vision specialists.It is difficult to search for anomalous events manually in thesemassive video records since they happen infrequently and with a low probability in real-world monitoring systems.Therefore,intelligent surveillance is a requirement of the modern day,as it enables the automatic identification of normal and aberrant behavior using artificial intelligence and computer vision technologies.In this article,we introduce an efficient Attention-based deep-learning approach for anomaly detection in surveillance video(ADSV).At the input of the ADSV,a shots boundary detection technique is used to segment prominent frames.Next,The Lightweight ConvolutionNeuralNetwork(LWCNN)model receives the segmented frames to extract spatial and temporal information from the intermediate layer.Following that,spatial and temporal features are learned using Long Short-Term Memory(LSTM)cells and Attention Network from a series of frames for each anomalous activity in a sample.To detect motion and action,the LWCNN received chronologically sorted frames.Finally,the anomaly activity in the video is identified using the proposed trained ADSV model.Extensive experiments are conducted on complex and challenging benchmark datasets.In addition,the experimental results have been compared to state-ofthe-artmethodologies,and a significant improvement is attained,demonstrating the efficiency of our ADSV method.

A Personalized Video Synopsis Framework for Spherical Surveillance Video

Video synopsis is an effective way to easily summarize long-recorded surveillance videos.The omnidirectional view allows the observer to select the desired fields of view(FoV)from the different FoVavailable for spherical surveillance video.By choosing to watch one portion,the observer misses out on the events occurring somewhere else in the spherical scene.This causes the observer to experience fear of missing out(FOMO).Hence,a novel personalized video synopsis approach for the generation of non-spherical videos has been introduced to address this issue.It also includes an action recognition module that makes it easy to display necessary actions by prioritizing them.This work minimizes and maximizes multiple goals such as loss of activity,collision,temporal consistency,length,show,and important action cost respectively.The performance of the proposed framework is evaluated through extensive simulation and compared with the state-of-art video synopsis optimization algorithms.Experimental results suggest that some constraints are better optimized by using the latest metaheuristic optimization algorithms to generate compact personalized synopsis videos from spherical surveillance videos.

Weapons Detection for Security and Video Surveillance Using CNN and YOLO-V5s

In recent years,the number of Gun-related incidents has crossed over 250,000 per year and over 85%of the existing 1 billion firearms are in civilian hands,manual monitoring has not proven effective in detecting firearms.which is why an automated weapon detection system is needed.Various automated convolutional neural networks(CNN)weapon detection systems have been proposed in the past to generate good results.However,These techniques have high computation overhead and are slow to provide real-time detection which is essential for the weapon detection system.These models have a high rate of false negatives because they often fail to detect the guns due to the low quality and visibility issues of surveillance videos.This research work aims to minimize the rate of false negatives and false positives in weapon detection while keeping the speed of detection as a key parameter.The proposed framework is based on You Only Look Once(YOLO)and Area of Interest(AOI).Initially,themodels take pre-processed frames where the background is removed by the use of the Gaussian blur algorithm.The proposed architecture will be assessed through various performance parameters such as False Negative,False Positive,precision,recall rate,and F1 score.The results of this research work make it clear that due to YOLO-v5s high recall rate and speed of detection are achieved.Speed reached 0.010 s per frame compared to the 0.17 s of the Faster R-CNN.It is promising to be used in the field of security and weapon detection.

Algorithm Research on Moving Object Detection of Surveillance Video Sequence

In video surveillance, there are many interference factors such as target changes, complex scenes, and target deformation in the moving object tracking. In order to resolve this issue, based on the comparative analysis of several common moving object detection methods, a moving object detection and recognition algorithm combined frame difference with background subtraction is presented in this paper. In the algorithm, we first calculate the average of the values of the gray of the continuous multi-frame image in the dynamic image, and then get background image obtained by the statistical average of the continuous image sequence, that is, the continuous interception of the N-frame images are summed, and find the average. In this case, weight of object information has been increasing, and also restrains the static background. Eventually the motion detection image contains both the target contour and more target information of the target contour point from the background image, so as to achieve separating the moving target from the image. The simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

Two-Phase Rate Adaptation Strategy for Improving Real-Time Video QoE in Mobile Networks

With the popularity of smart handheld devices, mobile streaming video has multiplied the global network traffic in recent years. A huge concern of users' quality of experience(Qo E) has made rate adaptation methods very attractive. In this paper, we propose a two-phase rate adaptation strategy to improve users' real-time video Qo E. First, to measure and assess video Qo E, we provide a continuous Qo E prediction engine modeled by RNN recurrent neural network. Different from traditional Qo E models which consider the Qo E-aware factors separately or incompletely, our RNN-Qo E model accounts for three descriptive factors(video quality, rebuffering, and rate change) and reflects the impact of cognitive memory and recency. Besides, the video playing is separated into the initial startup phase and the steady playback phase, and we takes different optimization goals for each phase: the former aims at shortening the startup delay while the latter ameliorates the video quality and the rebufferings. Simulation results have shown that RNN-Qo E can follow the subjective Qo E quite well, and the proposed strategy can effectively reduce the occurrence of rebufferings caused by the mismatch between the requested video rates and the fluctuated throughput and attains standout performance on real-time Qo E compared with classical rate adaption methods.

UTILITY OPTIMIZATION SCHEDULING FOR MULTI-POINT VIDEO SURVEILLANCE IN UBIQUITOUS NETWORK

Resource allocation is an important problem in ubiquitous network. Most of the existing resource allocation methods considering only wireless networks are not suitable for the ubiquitous network environment, and they will harm the interest of individual users with instable resource requirements. This paper considers the multi-point video surveillance scenarios in a complex network environment with both wired and wireless networks. We introduce the utility estimated by the total costs of an individual network user. The problem is studied through mathematical modeling and we propose an improved problem-specific branch-and-cut algorithm to solve it. The algorithm follows the divide-and-conquer principle and fully considers the duality feature of network selection. The experiment is conducted by simulation through C and Lingo. And it shows that compared with a centralized random allocation scheme and a cost greed allocation scheme, the proposed scheme has better per- formance of reducing the total costs by 13.0% and 30.6% respectively for the user.

Intelligent Mobile Video Surveillance System with Multilevel Distillation

This paper proposes a mobile video surveillance system consisting of intelligent video analysis and mobile communication networking. This multilevel distillation approach helps mobile users monitor tremendous surveillance videos on demand through video streaming over mobile communication networks. The intelligent video analysis includes moving object detection/tracking and key frame selection which can browse useful video clips. The communication networking services, comprising video transcoding, multimedia messaging, and mobile video streaming, transmit surveillance information into mobile appliances. Moving object detection is achieved by background subtraction and particle filter tracking. Key frame selection, which aims to deliver an alarm to a mobile client using multimedia messaging service accompanied with an extracted clear frame, is reached by devising a weighted importance criterion considering object clarity and face appearance. Besides, a spatial- domain cascaded transcoder is developed to convert the filtered image sequence of detected objects into the mobile video streaming format. Experimental results show that the system can successfully detect all events of moving objects for a complex surveillance scene, choose very appropriate key frames for users, and transcode the images with a high power signal-to-noise ratio （PSNR）.
