Lab Meeting 09/23, 2009 (Kuo-Huei): Detecting Unusual Activity in Video (CVPR 2004)

Title: Detecting Unusual Activity in Video

Authors: Hua Zhong, Jianbo Shi and Mirko Visontai

Abstract:
We present an unsupervised technique for detecting unusual activity in a large video set using many simple features. No complex activity models and no supervised feature selections are used. We divide the video into equal length segments and classify the extracted features into prototypes, from which a prototype–segment co-occurrence matrix is computed. Motivated by a similar problem in document keyword analysis, we seek a correspondence relationship between prototypes and video segments which satisfies the transitive closure constraint. We show that an important sub-family of correspondence functions can be reduced to co-embedding prototypes and segments to N-D Euclidean space.We prove that an efficient, globally optimal algorithm exists for the co-embedding problem. Experiments on various real-life videos have validated our approach.
