Anomaly detection using edge computing in video surveillance system: review.

The current concept of smart cities influences urban planners and researchers to provide modern, secured and sustainable infrastructure and gives a decent quality of life to its residents. To fulfill this need, video surveillance cameras have been deployed to enhance the safety and well-being of the citizens. Despite technical developments in modern science, abnormal event detection in surveillance video systems is challenging and requires exhaustive human efforts. In this paper, we focus on evolution of anomaly detection followed by survey of various methodologies developed to detect anomalies in intelligent video surveillance. Further, we revisit the surveys on anomaly detection in the last decade. We then present a systematic categorization of methodologies for anomaly detection. As the notion of anomaly depends on context, we identify different objects-of-interest and publicly available datasets in anomaly detection. Since anomaly detection is a time-critical application of computer vision, we explore the anomaly detection using edge devices and approaches explicitly designed for them. The confluence of edge computing and anomaly detection for real-time and intelligent surveillance applications is also explored. Further, we discuss the challenges and opportunities involved in anomaly detection using the edge devices.
