Video analytics system for surveillance videos

Developing an intelligent inspection system that can enhance the public safety is challenging. An efficient video analytics system can help monitor unusual events and mitigate possible damage or loss. This thesis aims to analyze surveillance video data, report abnormal activities and retrieve corresponding video clips. The surveillance video dataset used in this thesis is derived from ALERT Dataset, a collection of surveillance videos at airport security checkpoints.

The video analytics system in this thesis can be thought as a pipelined process. The system takes the surveillance video as input, and passes it through a series of processing such as object detection, multi-object tracking, person-bin association and re-identification. In the end, we can obtain trajectories of passengers and baggage in the surveillance videos. Abnormal events like taking away other's belongings will be detected and trigger the alarm automatically. The system could also retrieve the corresponding video clips based on user-defined query.
