Cyclostationary statistical models and algorithms for anomaly detection using multi-modal data

A framework is proposed to detect anomalies in multi-modal data. A deep neural network-based object detector is employed to extract counts of objects and sub-events from the data. A cyclostationary model is proposed to model regular patterns of behavior in the count sequences. The anomaly detection problem is formulated as a problem of detecting deviations from learned cyclostationary behavior. Sequential algorithms are proposed to detect anomalies using the proposed model. The proposed algorithms are shown to be asymptotically efficient in a well-defined sense. The developed algorithms are applied to a multi-modal data consisting of CCTV imagery and social media posts to detect a 5K run in New York City.
