Classification of Alerts from CCTV Footage
Monitoring live CCTV footage in public areas is essential for public safety and security. Accurately detecting actions such as swinging a knife, carrying high-threat objects, or exhibiting unusual behavior that threatens others is crucial for safeguarding these spaces.
Challenges
Limitations in Training Data for Detecting Suspicious and Hazardous Incidents
The lack of training data models hinder the system’s ability to effectively recognize suspicious behaviours such as loitering or breaching security boundaries and detecting hazardous objects placed inside or near secured areas.
False Alarms and Generalization
Current systems often generate a high number of false alarms due to the inability to accurately differentiate between normal and suspicious activities. This leads to a generalization of alerts, making it difficult to prioritize real threats.
Lack of Customization
Customization challenges in private security involve one-size-fits-all solutions, inadequate threat recognition, environmental factors, user-specific needs, scalability limitations, and varying cultural and legal considerations

Development of Specialized Algorithms for Dynamic Behavioural and Object Detection
Object Detection: Develop specialized algorithms for behavioural and object detection, uniquely designed to identify rare behaviours and items, tailored for specific local transit systems and it use cases.
Severity-Based Alert Classification
Severity-based classification categorizes alerts into high (immediate threats like armed intrusions), medium (potential risks like unauthorized access), and low (minor incidents like loitering), guiding response urgency and allocation.
Benefits
Sigmawave’s Approach Yields Significant Benefits for Public Safety and Security
Increase Productivity for Admin and Security Personnel
With the Sigmawave solution enhancing detection accuracy, administrators and security personnel can allocate their time more efficiently to crucial and urgent tasks. This reduces the risk of human errors resulting from overlooking incidents, which could lead to severe damage or pose risks to any commuters
Minimization of Human Error Risks
The adoption of the proposed Classification Warning protocols by Sigmawave helps reduce the risk of human errors in detecting suspicious items in public transportation. Thus, it diminishes the likelihood of incidents that may cause damage or pose risks to commuters
Rapid Response to Security Threats
Improved coordination between CCTV and advanced technology through Sigmawave solutions enables faster responses to security threats. Consequently, it enhances overall public safety and mitigates the potential impact of security incidents
