Evaluation of Smart Video for Transit Event Detection
| 项目名称： | Evaluation of Smart Video for Transit Event Detection |
| 摘要： | Transit agencies are increasingly using video cameras to fight crime and terrorism. As the volume of video data increases, the existing digital video surveillance systems provides the infrastructure only to capture, store and distribute video, while leaving the task of threat detection exclusively to human operators. Studies were done by Sandia National Laboratories for the U.S. Department of Energy to test the effectiveness of an individual whose task was to sit in front of a video monitor(s) for several hours a day and watch for particular events. The studies showed that even when assigned to a person, who is dedicated and well-intentioned, this method of using technology will not support an effective security system. After only 20 minutes of watching and evaluating monitor screens, the attention of most individuals has degenerated to well below acceptable levels. Monitoring video screens is boring, mesmerizing, and has no intellectually engaging stimuli. To address this problem, New Jersey Transit has connected over 1,400 of their cameras to computers that can automatically detect suspicious activity, using a complex algorithm. Any abnormality that differentiates from the algorithm will set off an alarm or a pager, or give a call to whoever is responsible for that camera. |
