Single image crowd counting is a challenging computer vision problem with wide applications in public safety, city planning, traffic management, etc. This survey is to provide a comprehensive summary of recent advanced crowd counting techniques based on Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) via density map estimation. Our goals are to provide an up-to-date review of recent approaches, and educate new researchers in this field the design principles and trade-offs. After presenting publicly available datasets and evaluation metrics, we review the recent advances with detailed comparisons on three major design modules for crowd counting: deep neural network designs, loss functions, and supervisory signals. We conclude the survey with some future directions.

While the performance of crowd counting via deep learning has been improved dramatically in the recent years, it remains an ingrained problem due to cluttered backgrounds and varying scales of people within an image. In this paper, we propose a Shall
ow feature based Dense Attention Network (SDANet) for crowd counting from still images, which diminishes the impact of backgrounds via involving a shallow feature based attention model, and meanwhile, captures multi-scale information via densely connecting hierarchical image features. Specifically, inspired by the observation that backgrounds and human crowds generally have noticeably different responses in shallow features, we decide to build our attention model upon shallow-feature maps, which results in accurate background-pixel detection. Moreover, considering that the most representative features of people across different scales can appear in different layers of a feature extraction network, to better keep them all, we propose to densely connect hierarchical image features of different layers and subsequently encode them for estimating crowd density. Experimental results on three benchmark datasets clearly demonstrate the superiority of SDANet when dealing with different scenarios. Particularly, on the challenging UCF CC 50 dataset, our method outperforms other existing methods by a large margin, as is evident from a remarkable 11.9% Mean Absolute Error (MAE) drop of our SDANet.
In recent years, with the progress of deep learning technologies, crowd counting has been rapidly developed. In this work, we propose a simple yet effective crowd counting framework that is able to achieve the state-of-the-art performance on various
crowded scenes. In particular, we first introduce a perspective-aware density map generation method that is able to produce ground-truth density maps from point annotations to train crowd counting model to accomplish superior performance than prior density map generation techniques. Besides, leveraging our density map generation method, we propose an iterative distillation algorithm to progressively enhance our model with identical network structures, without significantly sacrificing the dimension of the output density maps. In experiments, we demonstrate that, with our simple convolutional neural network architecture strengthened by our proposed training algorithm, our model is able to outperform or be comparable with the state-of-the-art methods. Furthermore, we also evaluate our density map generation approach and distillation algorithm in ablation studies.
In this paper, we address the challenging problem of crowd counting in congested scenes. Specifically, we present Inverse Attention Guided Deep Crowd Counting Network (IA-DCCN) that efficiently infuses segmentation information through an inverse atte
ntion mechanism into the counting network, resulting in significant improvements. The proposed method, which is based on VGG-16, is a single-step training framework and is simple to implement. The use of segmentation information results in minimal computational overhead and does not require any additional annotations. We demonstrate the significance of segmentation guided inverse attention through a detailed analysis and ablation study. Furthermore, the proposed method is evaluated on three challenging crowd counting datasets and is shown to achieve significant improvements over several recent methods.
Crowd counting is a challenging task due to the issues such as scale variation and perspective variation in real crowd scenes. In this paper, we propose a novel Cascaded Residual Density Network (CRDNet) in a coarse-to-fine approach to generate the h
igh-quality density map for crowd counting more accurately. (1) We estimate the residual density maps by multi-scale pyramidal features through cascaded residual density modules. It can improve the quality of density map layer by layer effectively. (2) A novel additional local count loss is presented to refine the accuracy of crowd counting, which reduces the errors of pixel-wise Euclidean loss by restricting the number of people in the local crowd areas. Experiments on two public benchmark datasets show that the proposed method achieves effective improvement compared with the state-of-the-art methods.
Crowd estimation is a very challenging problem. The most recent study tries to exploit auditory information to aid the visual models, however, the performance is limited due to the lack of an effective approach for feature extraction and integration.
The paper proposes a new audiovisual multi-task network to address the critical challenges in crowd counting by effectively utilizing both visual and audio inputs for better modalities association and productive feature extraction. The proposed network introduces the notion of auxiliary and explicit image patch-importance ranking (PIR) and patch-wise crowd estimate (PCE) information to produce a third (run-time) modality. These modalities (audio, visual, run-time) undergo a transformer-inspired cross-modality co-attention mechanism to finally output the crowd estimate. To acquire rich visual features, we propose a multi-branch structure with transformer-style fusion in-between. Extensive experimental evaluations show that the proposed scheme outperforms the state-of-the-art networks under all evaluation settings with up to 33.8% improvement. We also analyze and compare the vision-only variant of our network and empirically demonstrate its superiority over previous approaches.
