Clustering Aided Weakly Supervised Training to Detect Anomalous Events in Surveillance Videos.

Formulating learning systems for the detection of real-world anomalous events using only video-level labels is a challenging task mainly due to the presence of noisy labels as well as the rare occurrence of anomalous events in the training data. We propose a weakly supervised anomaly detection system that has multiple contributions including a random batch selection mechanism to reduce interbatch correlation and a normalcy suppression block (NSB) which learns to minimize anomaly scores over normal regions of a video by utilizing the overall information available in a training batch. In addition, a clustering loss block (CLB) is proposed to mitigate the label noise and to improve the representation learning for the anomalous and normal regions.

Stabilizing Adversarially Learned One-Class Novelty Detection Using Pseudo Anomalies.

Recently, anomaly scores have been formulated using reconstruction loss of the adversarially learned generators and/or classification loss of discriminators. Unavailability of anomaly examples in the training data makes optimization of such networks challenging. Attributed to the adversarial training, performance of such models fluctuates drastically with each training step, making it difficult to halt the training at an optimal point.
