Crowd Monitoring Using Image Processing
نویسندگان
چکیده
The understanding of crowd behaviour in semi-confined spaces is an important part of the design of new pedestrian facilities, for major layout modifications to existing areas and for the daily management of sites subject to crowd traffic. Conventional manual measurement techniques are not suitable for comprehensive data collection of patterns of site occupation and movement. Real-time monitoring is tedious and tiring, but safety-critical. This article presents some image processing techniques which, using existing closed-circuit television systems, can support both data collection and on-line monitoring of crowds. The application of these methods could lead to a better understanding of crowd behaviour, improved design of the built environment and increased pedestrian safety.

Image Processing Techniques for Crowd Density Estimation Using a Reference Image
There are still significant problems in the planning, design and management of public facilities subject to dense pedestrian traffic. The automation of data collection and analysis of crowd behaviour is increasingly desirable in design of facilities and long-term site management using image processing techniques with existing closed-circuit television systems. We have investigated a number of t...
متن کاملAn Abnormal Crowd Behavior Detection Algorithm Based on Fluid Mechanics
Abnormal crowd behavior detection is an advanced topic researched in fields of computer vision and digital image processing. The problems such as diversity of monitoring scene, different crowd density and mutual occlusion among crowds etc result in a low recognition rate for abnormal crowd behavior detection. In order to solve these problems, this paper combines a streakline model based on flui...

After exerting essential corrections for visual inter pretation , contrast optimization and making pseudo-colorful images were used to specity the salt crusts. Then , according to the sal...
متن کاملOn Crowd Density Estimation for Surveillance
The goal of this work is to use computer vision to measure crowd density in outdoor scenes. Crowd density estimation is an important task in crowd monitoring. The assessment is carried out using images of a graduation scene which illustrated variation of illumination due to textured brick surface, clothing and changes of weather. Image features were extracted using Grey Level Dependency Matrix,...
