Abstract
In recent years, the research on abnormal events detection is a significant work in surveillance video. Many researchers have been attracted by this work for the past two decades. As a result, several abnormal event detection approaches have been developed. Though several approaches have been used in the field still many problems remain to get the abnormal events detection accuracy. Moreover, many feature representations have limited capability to describe the content since several research works applied hand craft features, this type of feature can work in limited problems. To overcome this problem, this paper introduced the novel feature descriptor namely STS-D (Spatial and Temporal Saliency - Descriptor), which includes spatial and temporal information of the objects. This feature descriptor efficiently describes the shape and speed of the object. To find the anomaly score, fuzzy representation is modeled to efficiently differentiate the normal and abnormal events using fuzzy membership degree. The benchmark datasets UMN, UCSD Ped1 and Ped2 and real time roadway surveillance dataset are used to evaluate the performance of the proposed approach. Also, several existing abnormal events detection approaches are used to compare with the proposed method to evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed work.
