People Movement analysis: trajectories • Behavior analysis is a crucial tool for threat assessment and in general scene understanding • Trajectory/path analysisis a first fundamental step for behavior analysis in surveillance: • understanding critical and typical paths • identify deviations from “normality” • collect “occupancy” statistics • find suspicious behaviors • But also in other multimedia applications • Analyze similarities in videos
Problem description • Given all the trajectories acquired by a video surveillance system: Which are the trajectories that share some specific location properties? Which are the trajectories that share some specific shape properties? Which are the most frequent Behaviors? Who did perform them? people retrieval
Literature on Trajectory analysis • Literature approaches on trajectory comparison can be classified: • Depending on the Feature (Point to Point vs Statistical): Adopt a point-to-point comparison or exploit statistical data representation • Depending on the Representation (Original vs Transformed): Original feature space or provide a space transformation • Depending on the Data Dimension (Complete vs Selected): Use all the temporal data or select a subset

Trajectory analysis from two different perspectives • Trajectories are time series of data • Querying datasets of time series is a well studied data mining problem which requires: • A similarity measure between two time series • A clustering technique to classify trajectories • In the database-related research the datasets are very large (VLDB) and typically comprise reproducible phenomena (several repetitions of the same class). Thus, similarity measure can be approximated but need to be fast. Clustering can rely on very high number of samples of the same class (simple 1NN clustering often suffices) • Viceversa, in video-surveillance research data availability is limited, very diverse from time to time and full of noise. This lack of reproducibility requires a precise measure, also at the cost of computational time. The few data available per class also require more sophisticated clustering approaches • Video surveillance scenarios also exhibit a high dinamicitywhich calls for adaptive methods for classification
Ding-Keogh 08 proposal • The method proposed in (Ding-Keogh 08) perform the comparison among time series in the original x-y data space. • The comparison is performed directly on the original points sequences using dynamic programming and the Dynamic Time Warping • Inexact matching such as DTW are required to account for different lengths in time series and for temporal shifts
(Ding08) Point-to-point Complete Original • DTW algorithm
(Ding08) Point-to-point Complete Original • Each point is compared using the Euclidean distance. • Each dimension, namely x and y sequences are compared separately • The final distance is the weighted average of the contributions of single dimensions. • The Method is effective when comparing similar sequences hence suitable when a large dataset is available, thus suitable for querying VLDB

Von Misesdistribution • When the variables represent angles, Gaussians or MoGsare inappropriate. • Example: two observations at 1° and 359°. Modeling these data with a univariateGaussian distribution is incorrect. In fact, if we select the origin at 0° • if we select the origin at 180° • Von Mises distribution is more suitable to treat periodic variables, being circularly defined • I0 = modified zero-order Bessel function of the first kind
Mixtureof von Mises and MixtureofGaussians (MoG) • MovM: MoG:
Modelling a single trajectory • 1)A single trajectory is modeled as a sequence of angles: • 2) A specifically defined EMalgorithm is used:
EM forMovMdistribution • MovM: • Likelihood of complete data set: • Expected value of the log likelihood: • E-step: estimate of the responsabilities:
EM forMovMdistribution • M-step: maximizing wrt : • M-step: maximizing wrt : • M-step: maximizing wrt : • function zeros found by inverted numerically
Mappinganglestosymbols • 2) A single trajectory is modeled as a sequence of angles • and after having defined the MoVM • as a sequence of symbols:
Distanceforsequences • We transform a comparison between two sequences of either angles or coordinates in the comparison between two sequences of symbols, with each symbol corresponding to the proper probability distribution • However, due to acquisition noise, uncertainty and spatial/temporal shifts, exact matching between sequences is unsuitable for computing similarity • We use global alignment between two sequences, basing the distance as a cost of the best alignment of the symbols • Dynamic programming techniques are used to speed up the process.
Global alignment • Global vs local alignment • Using global alignment instead of local one is preferable because the former preserves both global and local shape characteristics • Dynamic programming is used to reduce computational time to O (ni · nj), where ni and nj are the lengths of the two sequences.
Inexactmatching • Since the symbols we are comparing correspond to pdf, match/mismatch should be proportional to the distance between the two corresponding pdfs • Need to evaluate distance between two pdfs: • Angular: Von Mises Distributions • Bhattacharyya distance bwpdfs (closed form) • Spatial: Gaussians Distributions • Bhattacharyya distance bwpdfs( )
Sequencesimilarity • where cBis the Bhattacharyya coefficient • The best alignment is then converted in a distance and used for clustering and testing
Comparison of alignment techniques • When the sequences are characterized by different lengths, DTW tries to stretch the two sequences in order to find the optimal time warping path with the consequence of eventually adding additional matches. • Global alignment (based on Needleman-Wunsch algorithm), on the other hand, simply adds gaps to align the sequences leading to the advantage of being more susceptible to slight time series’ changes by controlling the gap cost value
Clusteringtrajectories • The distance is used to cluster the trajectories in the training set either according their shape or they location • k-medoids algorithm: prototype of the cluster is the element that minimizes the sum of intra-class distances • To compute the best number of k clusters, iterative k-medoids: • initialization: i = 0, k(0) = Nt (cardinality training set); each trajectory is chosen as medoid) of the cluster • Step 1: Run k-medoids algorithm with k(i) clusters • Step 2: If there are two medoids with a similarity greater than a threshold Th, merge them and set k(i+1) = k(i)−1. Increment i and go back to step 1.
Experimental Result • We report results on a corpus of 3000 trajectories with an average length of 100 points • We compare our method with the baseline off-line time sequence comparison method of [Keog02] E. Keogh., “Exact indexing of dynamic time warping,” in 28th International Conference on Very Large Data Bases. Hong Kong, 2002, pp. 406–417

Adding the speed • Pure trajectory shape is not sufficiently always discriminative in surveillance scenarios: • the same path covered by a walk or by a run has a different meaning in terms of behavior • Add the speed to the shape description to provide a more complete analysis of the trajectory.

Trajectorymodeling • Use of semi-directional statistics to jointly model linear (speed) and circular (direction) data • Estimation of precision m in Von Misespdf is troublesome • Using a approximated wrapped Gaussian pdf is preferable: • Similar treatment of its linear counterpart • a linear approximation of the variance parameter even for circular variables: Gaussian MLE to compute the joint multivariate covariance matrix
