Abstract

In this paper, we present a system for counting people on public transport. The system consists of a single camera, and it process videos obtained from the camcorder to perform an algorithm to identify and to count people using Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs). The system is implemented by Cpp language based on OpenCV. People counting is an important factor to guarantee safe road trips as transport vehicles must not exceed an established number of passengers. This research is aimed to create a technological tool that helps to comply with the Transit Law in Ecuador. We describe different processing blocks dedicated to the detection, segmentation, direction estimation, counting, and evaluation of images to present its results during the standard travel of a bus.

Recomputing p-values needs the paper’s full text.

Claims the paper makes

We couldn’t retrieve this paper’s full text, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
