Self-harm is a common cause of death in correctional settings. The constant monitoring and the rapid detection**of self-harm events are crucial for protecting inmates' lives and reducing the mortality rates. During the last**decades, several technologies have been developed for preventing suicide attempts in prisons. However, most**of them use cumbersome devices and/or are greatly depending on human guard attention and intervention. Our**objective is to develop autonomous video surveillance solutions in order to intelligently detect life-threatening**events in prisons, and allow a rapid and reactive intervention. The proposed system will be designed to operate**continuously in realistic conditions to detect suicide attempts by hanging or by wrist cutting; 2- fights between**two inmates; 3- and symptoms of life threatening situations. These objectives will be achieved by ensuring the**efficient exploitation of recent advances in visual acquisition technologies, computer vision methods and**artificial intelligence. This project will lead to new knowledge in the intelligent video surveillance domain,**while contributing to training highly qualified personnel who will acquire an expertise in high demand across**Canada. Our work will also allow our industrial partner to develop a commercial product to be deployed in**correctional services. The impact of this product is expected to be more than merely economic. It will help**saving the lives of incarcerated people at risk, and avoid the resulting suffering.

自残是惩教机构中常见的死亡原因。不断监测和迅速发现 ** 自我伤害事件对于保护囚犯的生命和降低死亡率至关重要。在过去的几十年里，已经开发了几种技术来防止监狱中的自杀企图。然而，他们中的大多数使用笨重的设备和/或在很大程度上依赖于人类警卫的注意和干预。我们的目标是开发自主视频监控解决方案，以便智能地检测监狱中危及生命的事件，并进行快速反应式干预。拟议的系统将在实际情况下持续运行，以检测上吊或割腕自杀企图; 2-两名囚犯之间的打架; 3-以及危及生命的情况的症状。这些目标将通过确保有效利用视觉采集技术、计算机视觉方法和人工智能的最新进展来实现。该项目将带来智能视频监控领域的新知识，** 同时有助于培训高素质的人才，他们将在加拿大各地获得高需求的专业知识。我们的工作还将使我们的工业合作伙伴能够开发一种商业产品，用于 ** 惩教服务。预计这一产品的影响将不仅仅是经济上的。这将有助于挽救处于危险中的被监禁者的生命，并避免由此造成的痛苦。
