In this paper we proposed a method for determining the passenger flux based on SVM(support vector machine)detection and Mean Shift tracker. With adaptive detection window
the histogram of the gradient orientations is extracted through the detection region. After classification and clustering
the initial head hypotheses are obtained. Then
the Mean Shift tracker is used to track them
and image sequences of the head are achieved. By the whole decision on the consecutive head sequences using SVM
the number of people is obtained. Experimental results show that the adaptive sliding window method reduces the time consumption
and the accuracy of detection is improved by the combination with head tracking.
