A video camera is provided for video-based anomaly detection that includes at least one imaging sensor configured to capture video sequences in a workplace environment having a plurality of machines therein. The video camera further includes a processor. The processor is configured to generate one or more predictions of an impending anomaly affecting at least one item selected from the group consisting of (i) at least one of the plurality of machines and (ii) at least one operator of the at least one of the plurality of machines, using a Deep High-Order Convolutional Neural Network (DHOCNN)-based model applied to the video sequences. The DHOCNN-based model has a one-class SVM as a loss layer of the model. The processor is further configured to generate a signal for initiating an action to the at least one of the plurality of machines to mitigate expected harm to the at least one item.
