The benchmark setup for this task is extremely challenging due to: i) the limited size of the training sets, ii) weak supervision provided in terms of video-level labels, and iii) intrinsic class imbalance induced by the scarcity of abnormal events. In this work, we show that distilling knowledge from aggregated representations of multiple backbones into a single-backbone Student model achieves state-of-the-art performance. In particular, we develop a bi-level distillation approach along with a novel disentangled cross-attention-based feature aggregation network. Our proposed approach, DAKD (Distilling Aggregated Knowledge with Disentangled Attention), demonstrates superior performance compared to existing methods across multiple benchmark datasets. Notably, we achieve significant improvements of 1.36%, 0.78%, and 7.02% on the UCF-Crime, ShanghaiTech, and XD-Violence datasets, respectively.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2406.02831v2","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2406.02831v2.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[],"tasks":[{"task_slug":"anomaly-detection","task_name":"Anomaly Detection"},{"task_slug":"anomaly-detection-in-surveillance-videos","task_name":"Anomaly Detection In Surveillance Videos"},{"task_slug":"video-anomaly-detection","task_name":"Video Anomaly Detection"},{"task_slug":"weakly-supervised-video-anomaly-detection","task_name":"Weakly-supervised Video Anomaly Detection"}],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[{"leaderboard":"/sota/anomaly-detection-in-surveillance-videos-on","task":"Anomaly Detection In Surveillance Videos","dataset":"UCF-Crime","model":"DAKD (Weakly-supervised)","rank_in_archive_order":21,"of":21,"metrics":{"AUC":"88.34"},"uses_additional_data":false},{"leaderboard":"/sota/anomaly-detection-in-surveillance-videos-on-2","task":"Anomaly Detection In Surveillance Videos","dataset":"XD-Violence","model":"DAKD","rank_in_archive_order":4,"of":17,"metrics":{"AP":"85.61"},"uses_additional_data":false}],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
