Abstract

Increasing security awareness in the public sector are leading to a more and more widespread use of surveillance applications. Although the available technologies like video processing are already well advanced, they still suffer from high false alarm rates when used under realistic conditions. We present a method for sensor fusion based on probability density maps and a rule engine. The system was tested in a public area using the combination of audio localization, audio classification and video detection using 79 simulated scenarios and 44 hours of sample data recorded over a period of several weeks. The false positive rate decreased by 60% and the event localization rate increased by 25% with the fusion approach compared to the detection performance of individual techniques.
