We propose HR-UBnormal as an extension of the original UBnormal dataset [\[1\]]((#references)) with kinematic motion representations and a selected set of anomalies that relate only to human behaviors. 
First, AlphaPose [\[2\]](#references) was used to extract the poses, and PoseFlow [\[3\]](#references) was used to track the skeletons throughout each video. 
Then, we filtered out the non-human related anomalies. We removed the sub-sequences in which the only anomalous object was not a person (e.g., a car) or the anomaly cannot be detected using only body poses (e.g., fire in the scene). 
As a result, we left the validation set unaltered while eliminating the frames 2.32% of the test set.


## Notes regarding the file names' format

The UBnormal dataset annotated with the skeletal representation and its Human-Related version (HR) are released with the following directory structure:

In the `hr_bool_masks`, the frames which were anomalous in the original version but where the anomaly didn't involve any human being are toggled to 'normal', i.e., they are toggled from 1 to 0.

Regarding the naming of the files, since our code expects the `scene_id` and the `clip_id` to be integers and some of the file names in the original dataset were overloaded, the following mapping has been adopted:

- 
```
scene_id = {c1c2c3}
```

where `c1` is the scene type (`{'abnormal':0, 'normal':1}`) and `c2c3` is the scene number of the corresponding file in the original dataset.

- 
```
clip_id = {c1c2c3c4}
```

where `c1c2` is the scenario number (i.e., clip id) of the corresponding file in the original dataset, `c3c4` is the remaining id part dubbed as version. Indeed, in the original dataset some videos have names as in the following example:

- `normal_scene_1_scenario1_1`
- `normal_scene_1_scenario1_10`
- `abnormal_scene_9_scenario_1_fog`
- `abnormal_scene_12_scenario_1_smoke`

In order to keep the information regarding the environment in the clip (e.g., fog, smoke, ...), this mapping has been adopted:

```
{'fog': 51, 'fire': 52, 'smoke': 53}
```
