This repository hosts the codes for "Abnormal Event Detection in Videos Using Spatiotemporal Autoencoder". Paper can be found at Springer and arXiv.

Prerequisites:

• keras
• tensorflow
• h5py
• scikit-image
• scikit-learn
• sk-video
• tqdm (for progressbar)
• coloredlogs (optional, for colored terminal logs only)

You can use the Dockerfile provided to build the environment then enter the environment using nvidia-docker run --rm -it -v HOST_FOLDER:/share DOCKER_IMAGE bash.

To train the model, just run python start_train.py. Default configuration can be found at config.yml. You need to prepare video dataset you plan to train/evaluate on. You may get the benchmark dataset videos from respective authors. For each dataset, put the training videos into VIDEO_ROOT_PATH/DATASET_NAME/training_videos and testing videos into VIDEO_ROOT_PATH/DATASET_NAME/testing_videos. Example structure of training videos for avenue dataset:

• VIDEO_ROOT_PATH/avenue/training_videos
  • 01.avi
  • 02.avi
  • ...
  • 16.avi

Once you have trained the model, you may now run python start_test.py after setting the parameters at the beginning of the file.
