Modern video surveillance systems, such as the Moscow video surveillance system, use hundreds of thousands of cam- eras. The use of modern methods developed for working on a single computer with an expensive graphical processor is economically inefficient for such large-scale systems. In this paper, a distributed tracking algo- rithm is proposed. It makes it possible to reduce the amount of computational resources due to detecting peo- ple in a sparse set of frames. The detection is performed on servers installed in TI - A Distributed Tracking Algorithm for Counting People in Video JF - Programming and Computer Software DO - 10.1134/S0361768819040042 DA - 2019-08-06 UR - https://www.deepdyve.com/lp/springer-journals/a-distributed-tracking-algorithm-for-counting-people-in-video-Tqsd0YJm7u SP - 163 EP - 170 VL - 45 IS - 4 DP - DeepDyve ER -
