Detecting abnormal crowd behaviors based on the div-curl characteristics of flow fields

作者:

Highlights:

• Explore the crowd state change detection problem for the dense crowd scenarios of wide-field of view in the public place.

• Use a less computation required thermal diffusion processing and perspective transform processing to capture the macroscopic crowd motion information.

• Model motion information by use of divergence and curl characteristics of the flow field.

• Exploit a physical characteristic descriptor of crowd motion (PCM).

• Calculate the conditional entropy of PCM distribution to perceiving the crowd changes.
