TI - Abnormality Identification in Video Surveillance System using DCT T2 - Intelligent Automation \& Soft Computing PY - 2022 VL - 32 IS - 2 SN - 2326-005X AB - In the present world, video surveillance methods play a vital role in observing the activities that take place across secured and unsecured environment. The main aim with which a surveillance system is deployed is to spot abnormalities in specific areas like airport, military, forests and other remote areas, etc. A new block-based strategy is represented in this paper. This strategy is used to identify unusual circumstances by examining the pixel-wise frame movement instead of the standard object-based approaches. The density and also the speed of the movement is extorted by utilizing optical flow. The proposed strategy recognizes the unusual movement and differences by using discrete cosine transform coefficient. Our goal is to attain a trouble-free block-based Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) strategy that promotes real-time abnormality detection. The proposed approach has been evaluated against an airport dataset and the outcome of unusual happenings occurred in is evaluated and reported.
