基于骨架特征的人数统计

针对视频监控中行人在运动中将出现部分或严重遮挡的问题,提出了一种基于人体骨架特征的人数统计算法。首先,利用形态学骨架提取算法提取初始人体骨架图;然后,剔除骨架孤立点和骨架伪分支,得到最优人体骨架特征;最后,通过分析骨架的人头区域特征,建立人头检测响应规则,检测行人人头个数实现人数统计。实验结果表明,该算法能够解决视频监控人物相互之间部分遮挡和严重遮挡问题,针对相对稀疏的场景该算法人数统计准确率为95%左右。

People counting based on skeleton feature

Concerning the problem that pedestrians would be partially or seriously shaded by each other in video monitoring, this paper proposed a people counting algorithm based on human body skeleton feature. At first, the initial human skeleton was extracted by morphological skeleton extraction algorithm. Then the optimal skeleton feature was obtained by eliminating outliers and pseudo branches. Finally, this paper established a head detection response rule through analyzing the characteristics of skeleton in head areas to detect the head of pedestrian, and completed people counting by counting the heads of pedestrians. The experimental results show that the algorithm can solve the problems of partial and serious shading in video monitoring. For relatively sparse scene, the overall people counting accuracy rate of the algorithm is about 95%.
