As AI-based video analytics continues to revolutionise industries, a hidden threat lurks in the shadows, compromising the accuracy and reliability of these systems. Catastrophic interference, also known as forgetting, occurs when neural networks forget previous knowledge during the learning process, leading to a decline in performance. In this article, I’ll explore the implications of catastrophic interference on AI-based video analytics and how IntelexVision can help mitigate this risk.
The problem: catastrophic interference in neural networks
Catastrophic interference occurs when a neural network is trained on new data, causing it to forget previously learned information. This phenomenon can lead to:
In AI-based video analytics in surveillance, catastrophic forgetting can result in:
The general impact on AI-based video analytics
Catastrophic interference can have severe consequences in various applications, not only CCTV, including for example:
The impact on anomaly detection
In anomaly detection, neural networks are constantly trained to identify unusual patterns and behaviours. However, this continuous training can exacerbate catastrophic interference, leading to:
As the network forgets previous knowledge, it becomes less effective at detecting anomalies, compromising the entire system.
The IntelexVision solution
IntelexVision offers a solution to mitigate catastrophic interference in its unusual behaviour detection:
