Counting in High-Density Crowd Videos Edgar Lopez Mentor: Dr. Haroon Idrees
Video Annotations Method Compute forward tracks. Compute backward tracks. Match forward and backward tracks. Distance Appearance (Intensity Histogram) Added the constraint that if distance is large keep both tracks and don’t match. Compute average tracks by using weighting system. t frame t+step frame

Crowd Segmentation Challenges with this Video Low Resolution Saad Ali’s Method Our Method Challenges with this Video Low Resolution Very noisy Hard to compute segmentation using density map.
Counting in Videos Compute superpixels for each frame. Compute counts for each superpixel in all frames. Compute trajectories. Use trajectories to construct a Conditional Random Field (CRF) to smooth/improve counts between frames.
