AbstractIn recent years there has been an increasing number of terrorist attacks and bomb blasts in many public places. Video surveillance systems used in these places currently require monitoring by human operators constantly. This is a very tiring, time consuming, and costly task, requiring many people. Video surveillance systems are ineffective if there is a lack of good monitoring by the personnel employed to monitor them. Even if highly qualified andtalentedpeoplearerecruitedforthemonitoringofthesevideosurveillancesystems,itis quitedifficulttoconstantlyandattentivelymaintainattentiononasetofcameras. Automated people tracking systems would be helpful in such situation. Automated people tracking systems can monitor people in real time in crowded places. There are many existing people detection and trackingsystems for indoorand outdoorscenes. Most of thethesesystemsare tested on publicly available data sets but may only be suitable for specific scenarios. In this research, I compare the performance of head and pedestrian detectors used in combination with the state-of-the-art tracker proposed by Milan, Roth, and Schindler (2014). To evaluate the performance of the methods, I use data acquired from the AIT CCTV network.
