Abstract:
Strong video surveillance systems are essential when it comes to preventing suspicious activities
in public areas. In the context of urban security, detecting anomalous activities plays a huge role
in densely populated public areas. Current anomaly detection approaches are facing drawbacks in
the performance due overlapping of individuals, objects in crowded areas and the underlying
reason behind the anomaly detection is absent. The research aim of this project is to find a solution
to handle occlusion and interpret the detected results where it will increase the effectiveness and
trustworthiness of the model.
To overcome this limitation, this research introduces a novel architecture towards occlusion aware
and explainable crowd anomaly detection. The contribution of this architecture is the occlusion
handling module, anomaly detection module and interpretation module. Occlusion module
includes MAE, GAN, and GNN. Anomaly detection module integrated with SimCLR, GNN,
sparce and LSTM. The system uses ensemble voting for robust anomaly detection, providing
comprehensive interpretability through Grad-CAM and graph-based explanations.
The proposed novel architecture outperforms the current state-of-the-art approaches and it
archived 99.62% accuracy, ROC 99.33% and f1-score 99.3% during testing phase. This guaranteed
that this architecture is contributing to the domain and the interpretation of the detection provides
the valuable insights which makes the proposed approach as great research.
