A crowd analysis framework for detecting violence scenes

Abstract

This work examines violence detection in video scenes of crowds and proposes a crowd violence detection framework based on a 3D convolutional deep learning architecture, the 3D-ResNet model with 50 layers. The proposed framework is evaluated on the Violent Flows dataset against several state-of-the-art approaches and achieves higher accuracy values in almost all cases, while also performing the violence detection activities in (near) real-time.
