Detection of anomaly in surveillance videos using quantum convolutional neural networks

Anomalous behavior identification is the process of detecting behavior that differs from its normal. These inci-dents will vary from violence to war, road crashes to kidnapping, and so on in a surveillance model. Video anom-aly detection from video surveillance is a difficult research activity due to the frequency of anomalous cases. Since certain devices need manual evaluation for the detection of violent or criminal situations at the same time video monitoring of security cameras is also a challenging task and is unreliable. When the data or model dimension is sufficiently large, convolutional neural networks have the limitation of learning inefficiently. Quantum Convolutional Neural Network (QCNN) is the name given to a technology that combines CNN and quantum com-puting. Quantum computation and CNN are combined to create a more efficient and outperforming solution for solving complicated machine-learning problems. To analyze the anomalies in a sequence of video frames, two models are proposed in this research. In this research 07 layers of Javeria deep convolutional neural network (DCNN) are proposed on the selected hyperparameters named J. DCNN which is also different from the existing models to analyze the abnormal behavior in a video segment. Furthermore, for a comprehensive analysis of the abnormal video frames a model is proposed which is the combination of Javeria quantum and convolutional neu-ral networks (J. QCNN). In this model 04-qubit quantum neural network is used with five layers and an optimal loss rate named J. QCNN. The proposed J. QCNN model is different from the existing deep learning architectures. The proposed models are trained from the scratch for the detection of anomalous from top challenging publicly available video surveillance datasets such as UNI-Crime and UCF Crime. The proposed J. QCNN model classifies the number of violent robberies such as armed thefts containing handguns or knives, and robberies displaying varying levels of viciousness with 0.99 accuracy while J. DCNN model gives 0.97 accuracy. The obtained results are superior in comparison with recent existing cutting-edge published work for real-time anomaly detection in video CCTV.& COPY; 2023 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
