In this year’s competition [1], we made three changes based on last year’s system [2]. The first change was using original videos instead of resized videos. The second change was training the code books under separated cameras. The final change was performing inner vector normalization after feature encoding. In the cross validation, some of the proposed changes had impact on the detection and together made the fusion more accurate. However, in the competition, this year’s submission was inferior to the last year’s submission. We investigated the submission and found that it was caused by using the original videos, which was proposed for the intention of increasing the motion saliency in the features. As a consequence, we will not use the original videos to extract features for the next round.
