• Abstract: Autonomous agents require the capability to identify dynamic objects in their environment for safe planning and navigation. Incomplete and erroneous dynamic detections jeopardize the agent's ability to accomplish its task. Dynamic detection is a challenging problem due to the numerous sources of uncertainty inherent in the problem's inputs and the wide variety of applications, which often lead to use-case-tailored solutions. We propose a robust learning-free approach to segment moving objects in point cloud data. The foundation of the approach lies in modelling each voxel using a hidden Markov model (HMM), and probabilistically integrating beliefs into a map using an HMM filter. The proposed approach is tested on benchmark datasets and consistently performs better than or as well as state-of-the-art methods with strong generalized performance across sensor characteristics and environments. The approach is open-sourced at https://github.com/vb44/HMM-MOS.

• Video Anomaly Detection by Estimating Likelihood of Representations [21.879366166261228]
  Video anomaly is a challenging task because it involves solving many sub-tasks such as motion representation, object localization and action recognition. Traditionally, solutions to this task have focused on the mapping between video frames and their low-dimensional features, while ignoring the spatial connections of those features. Recent solutions focus on analyzing these spatial connections by using hard clustering techniques, such as K-Means, or applying neural networks to map latent features to a general understanding. In order to solve video anomaly in the latent feature space, we propose a deep probabilistic model to transfer this task into a density estimation problem.

  IoT devices can hardly afford complex deep neural networks (DNN) models, and offloading anomaly detection tasks to the cloud incurs long delay. We propose and build a demo for an adaptive anomaly detection approach for distributed hierarchical edge computing (HEC) systems. We show that our proposed approach significantly reduces detection delay without sacrificing accuracy, as compared to offloading detection tasks to the cloud.
