People counting system in crowded places has become a very useful practical
application that can be accomplished in various ways which include many
traditional methods using sensors. Examining the case of real time scenarios,
the algorithm espoused should be steadfast and accurate. People counting
algorithm presented in this paper, is centered on blob assessment, devoted to
yield the count of the people through a path along with the direction of
traversal. The system depicted is often ensconced at the entrance of a building
so that the unmitigated frequency of visitors can be recorded. The core premise
of this work is to extricate count of people inflow and outflow pertaining to a
particular area. The tot-up achieved can be exploited for purpose of statistics
in the circumstances of any calamity occurrence in that zone. Relying upon the
count totaled, the population in that vicinity can be assimilated in order to
take on relevant measures to rescue the people.

该研究论文主要研究人群计数系统在拥挤场所的实际应用，通过对路径上人群方向进行 blob 评估以准确计数人流的方法，以便在发生灾难时统计区域内的人口并采取相应措施。
