Abstract

Abstract

The local crowd density and the crowd distribution estimation tasks are useful but challenging. There are two main problems which limit the performance of existing algorithms. The first one is that there are not enough labeled training samples to build the highperformance estimation model. Another one is that existing methods lack the supports of physical theories of the crowd. To remedy them, a novel crowd density field model is proposed, which is deduced by jointing crowd dynamics theory and social force model. A crowd counting method based on the proposed crowd density field model is introduced to measure the proposed crowd density field model. Extensive experiments confirm the effectiveness of the proposed plan.
