Abstract:
In this paper, we have proposed a simple yet robust novel approach for segmentation of high density crowd flows based on super-pixels in H.264 compressed videos. The collective representation of the motion vectors of the compressed video sequence is transformed to color map and super-pixel segmentation is performed at various scales for clustering the coherent motion vectors. The number of dynamically meaningful flow segments is determined by measuring the confidence score of the accumulated multi-scale super-pixel boundaries. The final crowd flow segmentation is obtained from the edges that are consistent across all the super-pixel resolutions. Hence, our major contribution involves obtaining the flow segmentation by clustering the motion vectors and determination of number of flow segments using only motion super-pixels without any prior assumption of the number of flow segments. The proposed approach was bench-marked on standard crowd flow dataset. Experiments demonstrated better accuracy and speedup for the proposed approach compared to the state-of-the-art methods.
