Abstract (arXiv)

Violence Detection (VD) has become an increasingly vital area of research. Existing automated VD efforts are hindered by the limited availability of diverse, well-annotated databases. Existing databases suffer from coarse video-level annotations, limited scale and diversity, and lack of metadata, restricting the generalization of models. To address these challenges, we introduce DVD, a large-scale (500 videos, 2.7M frames), frame-level annotated VD database with diverse environments, varying lighting conditions, multiple camera sources, complex social interactions, and rich metadata. DVD is designed to capture the complexities of real-world violent events.
