Armaments Detection Using Artificial Intelligence and Deep Learning for Security Application

Abstract

Abstract: Security is usually a main concern in every domain, thanks to a rise in crime rate in a crowded event or suspicious lonely areas. Abnormal detection and monitoring have major applications of computer vision to tackle various problems. Thanks to growing demand in the protection of safety, security and private properties, needs and deployment of video surveillance systems can recognize and interpret the scene and anomaly events play an important role in intelligence monitoring. This project implements automatic gun (or) weapon detection employing a Convolution Neural Network (CNN) based Single Shot Multibox Detector and Faster R-CNN algorithms. Proposed implementation uses two sorts of datasets. One dataset, which had pre-labeled images and therefore the other one, may be a set of images, which were labeled manually. Results are tabulated, both algorithms achieve good accuracy, but their application in real situations is often based on the trade-off between speed and accuracy. The system is entailed with automatic detection of the handgun/ knife or the other crime objects without manual intervention. This technique operates directly on the raw inputs i.e. security footage of camera in live; thus is proven to exhibit increased accuracy thanks to usage of datasets and instant identification.
