The detection of contextual anomalies is a challenging task for surveillance since an observation can be considered anomalous or normal in a specific environmental context. An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) can utilize its aerial monitoring capability and employ multiple sensors to gather contextual…
Fast and robust gate perception is of great importance in autonomous drone racing. We propose a convolutional neural network-based gate detector (GateNet1) that concurrently detects gate’s center, distance, and orientation with respect to the drone using only images from a single fish-eye RGB camera…
We present a deep autoencoder-based anomaly detection method (GridNet) for indoor surveillance. Unlike similar studies, GridNet is image-agnostic by taking a specific representation of a scene as inputs instead of the raw image itself. Its input is grid representations of scene images, which indicat
Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) with mounted cameras have the advantage of capturing aerial (bird-view) images. The availability of aerial visual data and the recent advances in object detection algorithms led the computer vision community to focus on object detection tasks on aerial images. As a re…
Anomaly detection is a key goal of autonomous surveillance systems that should be able to alert unusual observations. In this paper, we propose a holistic anomaly detection system using deep neural networks for surveillance of critical infrastructures (e.g., airports, harbors, warehouses) using an u…
Scene models allow robots to reason about what is in the scene, what else should be in it, and what should not be in it. In this paper, we propose a hybrid Boltzmann Machine (BM) for scene modeling where relations between objects are integrated. To be able to do that, we extend BM to include tri-way…
