发明名称 REAL-TIME ANOMALY DETECTION OF CROWD BEHAVIOR USING MULTI-SENSOR INFORMATION
摘要 The present disclosure includes systems and methods for detecting an anomaly in crowd behavior. The method includes receiving sensor data representing a crowd, and partitioning the sensor data into local areas forming neighborhoods. The method further includes, for each local area, characterizing motion in the local area to determine real-time estimates of motion of sub-populations based on the sensor data, providing a crowd model for each local area, representing continuous functions describing expected motion near each local area, and determining parametric values of the crowd model based on the real-time estimates of the motion of the sub-populations. The method further includes learning and adapting auxiliary stochastic models characterizing normal evolution of the parametric values of the crowd model over time associated with each local area, and identifying a potential anomaly associated with the local area by comparing predictions from an auxiliary stochastic model with parametric values of the crowd model.

主权项 1. A computer-implemented method of detecting an anomaly in crowd behavior, the method comprising: receiving sensor data from one or more sensors, the sensor data representing a crowd in motion; partitioning the sensor data into a set of local areas, each local area forming a neighborhood for analyzing the crowd in motion; for each local area in the set of local areas, characterizing motion in the local area to determine a set of real-time estimates of motion of sub-populations in the local area based at least in part on the sensor data, each sub-population characterized by a pattern of motion based at least in part on sensor data collected over a longer-term time duration describing motion in the sub-population, the longer-term time duration including at least one of minutes, hours, days, weeks, seasons, and years;providing a crowd model for each local area, each model representing dynamics of continuous functions describing expected motion near each local area;determining a set of parametric values of the crowd model based at least in part on the real-time estimates of the motion of the sub-populations in the local area, to correlate the set of parametric values with a short-time evolution of the motion of the sub-populations in the local area;learning and adapting a set of auxiliary stochastic models based at least in part on evolution of the parametric values of the crowd model over time, the set of auxiliary stochastic models characterizing substantially normal evolution of the parametric values of the crowd model over time associated with each local area; andidentifying an occurrence of a potential anomaly associated with the local area by comparing predictions from an auxiliary stochastic model in the set of auxiliary stochastic models with the set of parametric values of the crowd model based at least in part on the real-time estimates of the motion of the sub-populations in the local area.
