Abstract

Abstract : It is crucial to ensure proper surveillance for the safety and security of people and their assets. The development of an aerial surveillance system might be very effective in catering to the challenges in surveillance systems. Current systems are expensive and complex. A cost-effective and efficient solution is required, which is easily accessible to anyone with a moderate budget. In aerial surveillance, quadcopters are equipped with state-of-the-art image processing technology that captures detailed photographs of every object underneath. A quadcopter-based solution is proposed to monitor desired premises for any unusual activities, like the movement of persons with weapons and face detection to achieve the desired surveillance. After detection of any unusual activity, the proposed system generates an alert for security personals. The proposed solution is based on quadcopter surveillance and video streaming for anomaly detection in the received video streams through deep learning models. A well-known FasterRCNN algorithm is modified for fast learning with feature reduction in the initial feature extraction step. Five different kinds of CNNs were evaluated for their ability to identify objects of interest in surveillance images. ResNet-50–based FasterRCNN with the highest average precision performed as an excellent solution for threat detection. The average precision of the system is 79% across all categories achieved.
