ABSTRACT
Current video quality control entails a manual review of every frame for every video for pixel errors. A pixel error is a single or small group of anomalous pixels displaying incorrect colors, arising from multiple sources in the video production pipeline. The detection process is difficult, time consuming, and rife with human error. In this work, we present a novel approach for automated pixel error detection, applying simple machine learning techniques to great effect. We use an autoencoder architecture followed by statistical post-processing to catch all tested live action pixel anomalies while keeping the false positive rate to a minimum. We discuss previous dead pixel detection methods in image processing, and compare to other machine learning approaches.

Autoencoding Binary Classifiers for Supervised Anomaly Detection
PRICAI 2019: Trends in Artificial IntelligenceAbstractWe propose the Autoencoding Binary Classifiers (ABC), a novel supervised anomaly detector based on the Autoencoder (AE). There are two main approaches in anomaly detection: supervised and unsupervised. The supervised approach accurately detects ...
DAS: Deep Autoencoder with Scoring Neural Network for Anomaly Detection
ACAI '20: Proceedings of the 2020 3rd International Conference on Algorithms, Computing and Artificial IntelligenceMany anomaly detection methods are unsupervised e.g. they only utilize the non-anomalous data for model training. Data points that deviate from the majority of the pattern are deemed as anomalies. However, in many cases, anomaly labels are available ...
Hyperspectral anomaly detection based on uniformly partitioned pixel
The objective of this paper is to develop an algorithm to detect anomaly in a hyperspectral image. The algorithm is based on a subspace model that is derived statistically. The anomaly detector is defined as the Mahalanobis distance of a residual from a ...
