Efficient Distraction Detection in Surveillance Video using Approximate Counting over Decomposed Micro-streams

Abstract

Mining techniques of infinite data streams often store synoptic information about the most recently observed data elements. Motivated by space efficient solutions, our work exploits approximate counting over a fixed-size sliding window to detect distraction events in video. We propose a model that transforms inline the incoming video sequence to an orthogonal set of thousands of binary micro-streams, and for each of the bit streams we estimate at every timestamp the count of number-of-ones in a preceding sub-window interval. On window bound frames, we further extract a compact feature representation of a bag of count-of-1’s occurrences to facilitate effective query of transitive similarity samples. Despite its simplicity, our prototype demonstrates robust knowledge discovery to support the intuition of a context-neutral window summary. To evaluate our system, we use real-world scenarios from a video surveillance online-repository.
