Abstract

In this paper, we present a method to detect and localize unusual activity in crowded scenes. A large number of surveillance cameras are fixed at various places for security purposes. We propose an autoencoder-based deep learning framework to categorize abnormality. Optical flow is computed using motion influence map and fed to the convolutional autoencoder. Thus, the spatio-temporal features obtained from the output of the encoder are used for classification. K-means clustering has been utilized to classify the spatio-temporal features. Experiments were conducted on standard crowd datasets and it is observed that the proposed model achieves comparable accuracy measure with state-of-the-art techniques.
