Original abstract

We propose a lightweight two-stage framework for real-time video anomaly detection. The first stage employs YOLO v11n-pose to detect persons and extract seventeen skeletal keypoints in a single forward pass. The second stage encodes each cropped person region through CLIP ViT-B/32 and computes cosine similarity against predefined textual descriptions of anomalous behaviors. This architecture eliminates the need for optical flow, standalone pose estimators, and density-based scoring modules. Experiments on CUHK Avenue, ShanghaiTech Campus, and a custom indoor dataset collected at Chulalongkorn University demonstrate an end-to-end throughput of approximately 51 FPS on an NVIDIA Titan XP GPU, a 3.36x speedup over the multi-feature baseline, while maintaining frame-level AUROC values of 89.26%, 70.26%, and 84.13%, respectively.
