Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of abnormal behavior detection, and in particular to a method, device, medium and equipment for detecting abnormal behavior of escalator passengers. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of my country's economy, escalators can be seen everywhere in the country, but they also bring many safety issues. Traditional abnormal behavior detection methods mainly rely on manual real-time monitoring in front of the surveillance video. This method not only consumes a lot of manpower, but also requires the monitoring personnel to concentrate their attention as the flow of people increases. They are often responsible for multiple detections at the same time, making it difficult to take care of the overall situation. Existing methods are mainly based on two types of technologies: (1) Traditional image processing: extracting moving targets through optical flow or background difference method, but dynamic lighting changes (such as glass curtain wall reflections) and dense passenger occlusion can easily lead to false detection. (2) YOLO-based abnormal behavior detection: relying on large-scale labeled data training to improve model accuracy, and has high computing power requirements, making it difficult to deploy on edge devices.

[0003] Object detection algorithms based on tensor low-rank decomposition have a natural advantage over other methods in capturing static backgrounds. Video data is inherently high-order tensor data. Traditional methods typically reduce the dimensionality of video data before processing it, but this method loses the spatial information of the video data itself. Traditional tensor decomposition methods (such as CP decomposition and Tucker decomposition) are insufficient for low-rank modeling of multimodal spatiotemporal data and cannot effectively separate escalator operating status (low-rank background) from passenger behavior (sparse foreground). Existing methods also ignore the spatiotemporal correlation between the periodicity of escalator operation and passenger motion trajectories, resulting in low sensitivity to minor anomalies (such as sudden stops), making it difficult to accurately detect abnormal passenger behavior.

[0004] The present invention provides a method, device, medium and equipment for detecting abnormal behavior of escalator passengers, which are used to solve the above-mentioned problems existing in the prior art, namely, how to improve the accuracy of detecting abnormal behavior of passengers in the prior art. The present invention provides a method for detecting abnormal behavior of escalator passengers, which includes: Divide the acquired video stream to be tested into continuous frames, and obtain an initial three-dimensional tensor for representing passenger behavior information based on the continuous frames; Construct a joint optimization model based on the tensor ring low-rank model TRLRD and the tensor total variation model TTV; The initial three-dimensional tensor is decomposed through a joint optimization model to determine the low-rank background and dynamic foreground, and the low-rank background and dynamic foreground are separated to obtain the target foreground tensor; The target foreground tensor is input into the multi-person pose estimation algorithm AlphaPose to estimate the passenger's pose and determine the pose detection result.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0016] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the present invention more clear, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the embodiments described are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0017] The following describes in detail the technical solution of the present invention and how the technical solution of the present invention solves the above-mentioned technical problems using specific embodiments. The following specific embodiments can be combined with each other, and the same or similar concepts or processes may not be repeated in some embodiments. The following embodiments of the present invention are described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0018] like Figure 1and Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment shows a method for detecting abnormal behavior of escalator passengers, including: S1: Divide the acquired video stream to be tested into continuous frames, and obtain an initial three-dimensional tensor for representing passenger behavior information based on the continuous frames.

[0019] Optionally, the video stream is divided into frames according to time windows and normalized.

[0020] For example, a real-time video stream can be captured by a grayscale camera, divided into frames according to time windows and normalized to construct a three-dimensional spatiotemporal tensor to represent pedestrian motion information (dimensions: length x width x number of frames). The grayscale camera captures the video stream with a resolution of H×W and a frame rate of F. The input video stream is divided into consecutive frames in time order to construct the initial three-dimensional tensor: , normalized to the interval [0,1] frame by frame:

[0021] S2: Construct a joint optimization model based on the tensor ring low-rank model TRLRD and the tensor total variation model TTV.

[0022] S3: Decompose the initial three-dimensional tensor through the joint optimization model to determine the low-rank background and dynamic foreground, separate the low-rank background and dynamic foreground, and obtain the target foreground tensor.

[0023] For example, a joint optimization model is constructed using tensor robust principal component analysis (TRLRDPCA) and tensor total variation model (TTV), which decomposes the initial three-dimensional tensor into low-rank background, sparse noise and dynamic foreground. The moving target foreground tensor is separated by iterative solution using the ADMM algorithm.

[0024] Exemplarily, the tensor is divided into local spatiotemporal blocks, each of size K×Hb×Wb.

[0025] Among them, Z represents the original video data, L represents the low-rank tensor, T represents the sparse tensor, S represents the dynamic background and W represents the moving target foreground, and the TTV-A term represents the TTV-A norm of the foreground W.

[0026] The augmented Lagrange multiplier method (ALM) and alternating direction multiplier method (ADMM) can be used to solve the minimization model.

[0027] S4: Input the target foreground tensor into the multi-person pose estimation algorithm AlphaPose, estimate the passenger's pose, determine the pose detection result, and input the pose detection result into the trained convolutional neural network for abnormal behavior recognition to obtain the recognition result.

[0028] Optionally, perform posture detection on the passenger to obtain posture detection results, specifically including: By adopting the multi-person pose estimation algorithm AlphaPose, the joint key point information of the passengers is extracted, and the posture of the passengers is detected based on the joint key point information.

[0029] For example, the AlphaPose multi-person pose estimation algorithm is used to estimate the pose of passengers frame by frame using the target foreground tensor W. Pose estimation involves two steps: testing and training. During testing, the passenger targets are first fed into the SSTN spatial transformer network to modify the poor-quality passenger regions. Then, the Single Person Pose Estimator (SPPE) is used to estimate the pose of the foreground information. Finally, the parameterized pose non-maximum suppression algorithm (P-NMS) is used to remove redundant poses. During training, the SPPE module is used to train the SSTN module to avoid local optimality.

[0030] For example, posture features can be input into the EfficientNet classification network to identify abnormal behaviors such as walking against traffic, falling, and crowding, and trigger alarms or braking signals.

[0031] The above is a method for detecting abnormal behavior of escalator passengers provided in one or more embodiments of this specification.
