Hyperspectral Trajectory Image for Multi-Month Trajectory Anomaly Detection

The paper introduces TITAnD, a Trajectory Image Transformer that converts dense and sparse GPS trajectories into a Hyperspectral Trajectory Image (HTI) and applies vision-based classification and segmentation for anomaly detection. It employs a Cyclic Factorized Transformer (CFT) that splits attention along within-day and across-day axes, drastically reducing computational cost and enabling multi-month analysis. Empirical results show TITAnD outperforms existing sparse and dense benchmarks, achieving higher AUC-PR and faster inference than comparable Transformers.

Event Stream based Multi-Modal Video Anomaly Detection: A Benchmark Dataset and Algorithms

arXiv:2607. 09114v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Video anomaly detection (VAD) is critical for automated surveillance but remains fragile under challenging conditions such as illumination variations, fast motion, and complex backgrounds when relying solely on visible light videos.

Adaptive Multi-Granularity Temporal Modeling for Weakly Supervised Video Anomaly Detection

The paper introduces an adaptive temporal modeling framework for weakly supervised video anomaly detection that addresses the limitations of rigid Multiple Instance Learning approaches. It presents a Temporal Refinement Module using dynamic positional encoding and a learnable class token to capture long‑range dependencies, and an Event Segmentation Module that identifies event boundaries via temporal discontinuity analysis to produce discriminative event‑level representations. An adaptive similarity‑based fusion strategy replaces fixed top‑k heuristics, dynamically integrating snippet‑level and event‑level anomaly scores into video‑level predictions, and the method outperforms state‑of‑the‑art baselines on two benchmarks.

VQ-VAD: Vector-quantized Motion Representation Learning for Human-centric Video Anomaly Detection

Video Anomaly Detection (VAD) is inherently challenging due to the scarcity of anomalies and the large visual variability in surveillance footage, including changes in lighting, viewpoint, and human appearance. To mitigate visual noise and address privacy concerns, recent work has shifted to pose-based VAD, which focuses on motion dynamics rather than raw video data.

TrajMind: Chaining Role-Specialized LoRAs for Fast-and-Slow Collective Trajectory Anomaly Diagnosis

TrajMind is a framework for diagnosing collective anomalies in urban trajectory data. It separates continuous screening from on-demand diagnosis, using a fast text-only path for alerts and a slow vision‑language path that chains role‑specialized LoRA adapters for detailed, evidence‑backed what‑who‑where‑when records. Experiments show the slow path outperforms baselines by over 15 percentage points in typing and 13 in localization, while the fast path cuts latency by 41% and retains high accuracy.
