    Every channel is shown in the model's warped units against the GP's one-step-ahead forecast band (mean ± 2σ). Red points are innovations beyond 3σ.

    normalcy model per channel

    CACK models every signal with a Gaussian process whose covariance kernel is discovered, not chosen. An evolutionary search combines base kernels with + and ×; a reasoning step reads each channel's spectrum and the innovations of its best model and proposes what is still missing.

        CACK-Sim and public benchmarks

        CACK is evaluated on CACK-Sim, a procedural benchmark of crowd scenes with frame-exact labels for ten anomaly types in three classes, at two difficulty tiers, and on three public video anomaly benchmarks. Every method is calibrated on the same normal footage and scored on the same test footage.

        Mean over sites and seeds. TPR is the detection rate of anomalous windows at a fixed false-alarm rate on normal windows. Full details, ablations and limitations are in the paper.

        Public benchmarks

        Frame-level AUROC, offline / online, on ShanghaiTech, CUHK Avenue and UCSD Ped2, with the same detector, tracker and windows for every method. Here CACK is on par with classical detectors and below the state of the art; its strengths are calibrated, explained evidence, feed integrity and speed.
