SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SEGMENTING CROWDED ENVIRONMENTS INTO INDIVIDUAL OBJECTS

摘要

A crowd segmentation system and method is described. The system includes a digital video capturing subsystem and a computing subsystem. The computing subsystem utilizes an emergent labeling technique to segment a crowd into individuals. The emergent labeling technique employs algorithms which can be used iteratively to place vertices associated with feature points in a captured digital video image into multiple cliques and, ultimately, in a single clique.
