• Abstract: Extreme natural disasters can have devastating effects on both urban and rural areas. In any disaster event, an initial response is the key to rescue within 72 hours and prompt recovery. During the initial stage of disaster response, it is important to quickly assess the damage over a wide area and identify priority areas. Among machine learning algorithms, deep anomaly detection is effective in detecting devastation features that are different from everyday features. In addition, explainable computer vision applications should justify the initial responses. In this paper, we propose an anomaly detection application utilizing deeper fully convolutional data descriptions (FCDDs), that enables the localization of devastation features and visualization of damage-marked heatmaps. More specifically, we show numerous training and test results for a dataset AIDER with the four disaster categories: collapsed buildings, traffic incidents, fires, and flooded areas. We also implement ablation studies of anomalous class imbalance and the data scale competing against the normal class. Our experiments provide results of high accuracies over 95% for F1. Furthermore, we found that the deeper FCDD with a VGG16 backbone consistently outperformed other baselines CNN27, ResNet101, and Inceptionv3. This study presents a new solution that offers a disaster anomaly detection application for initial responses with higher accuracy and devastation explainability, providing a novel contribution to the prompt disaster recovery problem in the research area of anomaly scene understanding. Finally, we discuss future works to improve more robust, explainable applications for effective initial responses.
