“Deep Learning Approach for Suspicious Activity Detection from Surveillance Video”

Computer Engineering

Suspicious Activity is predicting the body part or joint locations of a person from an image or a video. Human suspicious activity is one of the key problems in computer vision that has been studied for more than 15 years. It is important because of the sheer number of applications which can benefit from activity detection. For example, human pose estimation is used in applications including video surveillance, animal tracking and behavior understanding, sign language detection, advanced human computer interaction, and marker less motion capturing. Low cost depth sensors have limitations like limited to indoor use, and their low resolution and noisy depth information make it difficult to estimate human poses from depth images. Hence, we plan to use neural networks to overcome these problems. Suspicious human activity recognition from surveillance video is an active research area of image processing and computer vision. Through the visual surveillance, human activities can be monitored in sensitive and public areas such as bus stations, railway stations, airports, banks, shopping malls, school and colleges, parking lots, roads, etc. to prevent terrorism, theft, accidents and illegal parking, vandalism, fighting, chain snatching, crime and other suspicious activities.
