用多智能体系统自动统计公园游客数量,准确率达72%。

A Case Study of Counting the Number of Unique Users in Linear and Non-Linear Trails -- A Multi-Agent System Approach

  • 部署分布式摄像头网络,通过属性共享追踪用户轨迹
  • 在两条步道上实现72%的唯一用户识别率
  • 适合城市规划与公园管理实时监测场景

公园为提升生活质量提供休闲空间与生态效益。了解使用模式,包括访客数量和活动类型,对安保、设施维护和资源分配至关重要。传统方法依赖单入口传感器统计总访问量,无法区分唯一用户,受限于人力与成本。随着低成本视频监控与联网处理技术发展,更全面的分析成为可能。本研究提出一种多智能体系统,利用分布式低功耗摄像头网络追踪并分析唯一用户。以特拉华州威尔明顿的杰克·A·马克尔(JAM)步道和纽瓦克的霍尔步道为案例,系统捕获视频数据,自主运用现有算法提取速度、方向、活动类型、衣着颜色、性别等属性,并在摄像头间共享构建运动轨迹,精确计算唯一访客数。通过与人工计数对比及多种条件下的模拟验证,结果显示该方法在识别唯一用户方面达到72%的成功率,为自动化公园活动监测树立新基准。尽管存在摄像头布局与环境因素挑战,结果表明该系统具备可扩展性与成本效益,适用于实时公园使用分析与游客行为追踪。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Parks play a crucial role in enhancing the quality of life by providing recreational spaces and environmental benefits. Understanding the patterns of park usage, including the number of visitors and their activities, is essential for effective security measures, infrastructure maintenance, and resource allocation. Traditional methods rely on single-entry sensors that count total visits but fail to distinguish unique users, limiting their effectiveness due to manpower and cost constraints.With advancements in affordable video surveillance and networked processing, more comprehensive park usage analysis is now feasible. This study proposes a multi-agent system leveraging low-cost cameras in a distributed network to track and analyze unique users. As a case study, we deployed this system at the Jack A. Markell (JAM) Trail in Wilmington, Delaware, and Hall Trail in Newark, Delaware. The system captures video data, autonomously processes it using existing algorithms, and extracts user attributes such as speed, direction, activity type, clothing color, and gender. These attributes are shared across cameras to construct movement trails and accurately count unique visitors. Our approach was validated through comparison with manual human counts and simulated scenarios under various conditions. The results demonstrate a 72% success rate in identifying unique users, setting a benchmark in automated park activity monitoring. Despite challenges such as camera placement and environmental factors, our findings suggest that this system offers a scalable, cost-effective solution for real-time park usage analysis and visitor behavior tracking.
