Overview:


Welcome to Violent-Flows - Crowd Violence \ Non-violence Database and benchmark: A database of real-world, video footage of crowd violence, along with standard benchmark protocols designed to test both violent/non-violent classification and violence outbreak detections. The data set contains 246 videos. All the videos were downloaded from YouTube. The shortest clip duration is 1.04 seconds, the longest clip is 6.52 seconds, and the average length of a video clip is 3.60 seconds.

Code

New! May, 25th, 2014: Code for computing the Violent Flows (ViF) descriptors is now available.

To run, call VIF_create_feature_vec.m with path and file_name of an AVI file. The output is a vector of VIF features.
