Cross-Scene Person Trajectory Anomaly Detection Based on Re-Identification.

In this work, we consider the cross-scene person trajectory anomaly detection problem, which detects the anomalous trajectories across multiple nonoverlapping scenes. This problem is highly significant for public security, but it is still underexplored. Since the trajectory is not continuous across nonoverlapping camera views, we take use of person reidentification (re-ID) to associate the same pedestrian in different scenes while mitigating its inaccuracy by a directional probabilistic graph. To better distinguishing normal samples from anomalies, We formulate a maximized margin graph autoencoder (MMGAE) model, and the reconstruction error of the MMGAE is regarded as an anomaly indicator for the sample. To verify the effectiveness of our approach, we collected and labeled a new dataset. we also explore the impact of the re-ID performance on the anomaly detection problem and the effect of an inaccurately constructed graph on the MMGAE.
