Queue Assessment via Images

Simon Bang Jacobsen

AbstractThe goal of the thesis is to evaluate queue using computer vision and mathematical modeling. As a part of this project a queue assessment system has been developed to estimate the waiting time of a queue. In this development process studies of other queue assessment systems have been done, and we have furthermore been working on different approaches to do queue time estimation. Among these approaches people tracking techniques has been considered as a basis for queue assessment. The final solution is a system based on foreground segmentation and optical flow. The system has been tested in the main canteen at DTU and shows in tests to give a good estimate of the waiting times.
