Context Recovery and Knowledge Retrieval: A Novel Two-Stream Framework for Video Anomaly Detection.

Video anomaly detection aims to find the events in a video that do not conform to the expected behavior. The prevalent methods mainly detect anomalies by snippet reconstruction or future frame prediction error. However, the error is highly dependent on the local context of the current snippet and lacks the understanding of normality.

Learning to Compare Relation: Semantic Alignment for Few-Shot Learning.

Few-shot learning is a fundamental and challenging problem since it requires recognizing novel categories from only a few examples. The objects for recognition have multiple variants and can locate anywhere in images. Directly comparing query images with example images can not handle content misalignment.

Body Joint Guided 3-D Deep Convolutional Descriptors for Action Recognition.

3-D convolutional neural networks (3-D CNNs) have been established as a powerful tool to simultaneously learn features from both spatial and temporal dimensions, which is suitable to be applied to video-based action recognition. In this paper, we propose not to directly use the activations of fully connected layers of a 3-D CNN as the video feature, but to use selective convolutional layer activations to form a discriminative descriptor for video. It pools the feature on the convolutional layers under the guidance of body joint positions.
