Accelerated Event-Based Feature Detection and Compression for Surveillance Video Systems (2312.08213v2)

Published 13 Dec 2023 in cs.MM and cs.CV

Abstract: The strong temporal consistency of surveillance video enables compelling compression performance with traditional methods, but downstream vision applications operate on decoded image frames with a high data rate. Since it is not straightforward for applications to extract information on temporal redundancy from the compressed video representations, we propose a novel system which conveys temporal redundancy within a sparse decompressed representation. We leverage a video representation framework called ADDER to transcode framed videos to sparse, asynchronous intensity samples. We introduce mechanisms for content adaptation, lossy compression, and asynchronous forms of classical vision algorithms. We evaluate our system on the VIRAT surveillance video dataset, and we show a median 43.7% speed improvement in FAST feature detection compared to OpenCV. We run the same algorithm as OpenCV, but only process pixels that receive new asynchronous events, rather than process every pixel in an image frame. Our work paves the way for upcoming neuromorphic sensors and is amenable to future applications with spiking neural networks.
