Abstract
Abstract. Conventional tracking methods encounter difficulties as the number of objects, clutter, and sensors increase, because of the requirement for data association. Statistical tracking, based on the concept of network tomography, is an alternative that avoids data association. It estimates the number of trips made from one region to another in a scene based on interregion boundary traffic counts accumulated over time. It is not necessary to track an object through a scene to determine when an object crosses a boundary. This paper describes statistical tracing and presents an evaluation based on the estimation of pedestrian and vehicular traffic intensities at an intersection over a period of 1 month. We compare the results with those from a multiple-hypothesis tracker and manually counted ground-truth estimates.
