Crowd detection in video sequences
We present a real-time system that detects moving crowd in a video sequence. Crowd detection differs from pedestrian detection in that we assume that no individual pedestrian can be properly segmented in the image. We propose a scheme that looks at the motion patterns of crowd in the spatio-temporal domain and give an efficient implementation that can detect crowd in real-time. In our experiments we detected crowd at distances of up to 70 m.
