AbstractSurveillance videos can capture anomalies in real scenarios and play an important role in security systems. Anomaly events are unpredictable, which reflect the unsupervised nature of the problem. In addition, it is difficult to construct a complete video dataset which contains all normal events. Based on the diversity of normal events, this paper proposes a memory-enhanced unsupervised method for anomaly detection. The proposed method reconstructs video events by combining prototype features and encoded features to detect anomaly events. Furthermore, a memory module is introduced to better store the prototype patterns of normal events. Experimental results in various benchmark datasets demonstrate the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed method.
