Title
Physical Security Assessment Using Temporal Machine Learning
Abstract
Nuisance and false alarms are prevalent in modern physical security systems and often overwhelm the alarm station operators. Deep learning has shown progress in detection and classification tasks, however, it has rarely been implemented as a solution to reduce the nuisance and false alarm rates in a physical security systems. Previous work has shown that transfer learning using a convolutional neural network can provide benefit to physical security systems by achieving high accuracy of physical security targets [10]. We leverage this work by coupling the convolutional neural network, which operates on a frame-by-frame basis, with temporal algorithms which evaluate a sequence of such frames (e.g. video analytics). We discuss several alternatives for performing this temporal analysis, in particular Long Short-Term Memory and Liquid State Machine, and demonstrate their respective value on exemplar physical security videos. We also outline an architecture for developing an ensemble learner which leverages the strength of each individual algorithm in its aggregation. The incorporation of these algorithms into physical security systems creates a new paradigm in which we aim to decrease the volume of nuisance and false alarms in order to allow the alarm station operators to focus on the most relevant threats.
