1 INTRODUCTION

One of the pivotal techniques in video surveillance is

people counting, a task that often encounters several

challenges in crowded settings. These challenges

include low resolution, occlusions, fluctuations in

lighting, diverse imaging angles, and background

clutter, making it a complex task. People counting

serves as an essential function within intelligent video

surveillance systems, offering substantial utility and

commercial value across various venues such as

banks, train stations, shopping centers, and

educational institutions. The complexities of

accurately counting individuals in densely populated

surveillance zones are amplified by these

environmental and technical factors (Aish, Zaqoot, et

al. , 2023). During the ongoing pandemic, the ability

to count and analyse the distribution of people within

a camera's view can play a crucial role in mitigating

the spread of COVID-19. Various techniques such as

segmentation, pixel counting, and feature extraction

are employed to detect crowds, though challenges

arise, such as background elimination, when camera

setups are widespread.

Our focus is primarily on crowd counting which

involves distinguishing the crowd from background

disturbances and quantifying the number of

individuals within the crowd. While substantial

research has been conducted in human recognition, it

tends to be most effective in less crowded

environments. Traditional CCTV systems often

suffer from low-resolution issues, prompting the

introduction of cost- effective high-resolution

cameras. However, these solutions face their own set

of challenges, including maintaining high image

quality and managing the increased processing load

from multiple cameras operating simultaneously.

Additionally, in densely populated areas, the high

crowd density reduces the number of pixels available

per person, complicating the use of standard

individual detection methods. (Ma, Siyuan, et al. ,

2023).

Face detection involves locating one or more

human faces within images or videos and is crucial

for applications in biometric authentication, security,

surveillance, and media indexing. While humans can

easily recognize faces, this task presents significant

challenges for computers. It is treated as major issues

in the computer vision due to considerable variations

within the same class brought about by differences in

facial features, lighting conditions, and expressions.

This research utilizes the MATLAB r2020b nt to

develop a face detection using the Viola-Jones

algorithm. The model having an ability to detect faces

in real-time and has become a standard in identifying

frontal faces within images (Ramasamy, Praba, et al.

, 2020), (Meivel, Indira Devi, et al. , 2021). The

objective of this paper is to delve into the Viola-Jones

algorithm's methodology for counting heads. Initially

designed for rapid image detection, the algorithm

employs a two-stage process: training and detection,

leveraging Haar- like features. This study further

examines the use of Integral Images, Training

Classifiers, Adaptive Boosting, and Cascading

techniques, which collectively enhance the accuracy

and efficiency of the algorithm.

Originally developed by Paul Viola et al; in 2001,

the Viola-Jones algorithm is a prominent machine

learning framework for object and face detection

known for its use of a boosted cascade of simple

features. It integrates Ada Boost and Haar feature-

based cascaded classifiers for effective object

discrimination. Haar features, which are small

rectangular patterns of image intensities, help

distinguish between different objects. AdaBoost, a

machine learning method, enhances classifier

effectiveness by converting weak classifiers into

strong ones.

During the initial phase, the algorithm trains

multiple weak classifiers on a large dataset containing

both positive and negative examples. These

classifiers, simple decision trees, use Haar features to

recognize specific patterns in the images (Garg,

Hamarneh, et al. , 2020), (Rajeshkumar, Samsudeen,

et al. , 2020) Subsequently, AdaBoost amalgamates

these weak classifiers into a robust classifier. In the

detection phase, the algorithm scans the image with a

window of varying sizes, applying the strong

classifier to each sub- window. If a sub- window is

identified as likely containing an object, it is passed

on to the next level of the cascade. This cascade,

composed of increasingly complex and

computationally demanding classifiers, is designed to

quickly dismiss non-object sub- windows while

advancing those likely containing objects. (Zhou,

Wei, et al. , 2020). Due to its speed and accuracy, the

Viola-Jones algorithm has gained popularity for

facial recognition. It is utilized in numerous

applications, such as mobile devices, security

systems, and digital cameras.

2 LITERATURE SURVEY

In the referenced study (Lienhart, Kuranov, et al. ,

2003), Viola and colleagues developed a quick

detection system using an improved cascade of

straight forward classifiers. In this research, two

significant enhancements to their approach and

provide a detailed empirical analysis of these

improvements. First, incorporate a new set of Haar-

like features. Innovative features not only retain

simplicity of the original qualities found in

(Rajeshkumar, Samsudeen, et al. , 2020) but are also

easily computable, significantly enhancing detection

capabilities. Utilizing these rotating features, our

prototype face detector achieves an average reduction

in the false alarm rate by 10% at the same hit rate.

Secondly, conducting an exhaustive evaluation of

the detection efficiency and computational demands

of various boosting methods, specifically Discrete,

Real, and Gentle Ada Boost, alongside different weak

classifiers. Our findings indicate that Gentle Ada

Boost demonstrates superior performance over

Discrete Ada Boost, particularly when utilizing small

CART trees as the foundational classifiers. This

analysis offers valuable insights into optimizing

detection frameworks for better accuracy and

efficiency in real-world applications.

In reference (Timo, Matti, et al. , 2002), the

authors introduced a method for classifying grayscale

and rotation-invariant textures through a simple yet

effective multi resolution approach that utilizes

binary patterns and nonparametric discernment

between sample and prototype. This technique builds

on the concept that certain local binary patterns,

known as "uniform," play a crucial role in defining

local image textures, and that their histogram

distribution serves as a powerful feature for texture

analysis.

To enhance this framework, developed a

widespread operator for gray-scale and rotation

invariance that facilitates the integration of multiple

operators for multi resolution analysis. This

advancement allows the identification of "uniform"

Harnessing Viola-Jones for Effective Real-Time Crowd Monitoring Based on Image Processing Techniques

369

patterns across any quantization of angular space and

at whichever level of three-dimensional resolution.

Furthermore, by its very nature, this operator

remains invariant to any monotonic grayscale

transformations, making our proposed method

exceptionally robust against variations in grayscale.

This resilience enhances the utility and applicability

of the technique in diverse and dynamic imaging

conditions. In reference (Kruppa, Santana, et al. ,

2003), the authors highlight that face detection plays

a critical role in initiating tracking algorithms within

visual surveillance systems. Recent findings in

psychophysics suggest the importance of

incorporating the local context of a face, such as head

contours and the torso, for effective detection. The

detector developed in this study leverages this

concept of local context, which enhances its

robustness beyond the capabilities of traditional face

detection methods. This enhanced robustness makes

it particularly appealing for use in surveillance

applications. The study referenced in (Marco, Oscar,

et al. , 2007) explores a face detection system that

surpasses traditional approaches usually applied to

still images. This system is uniquely designed to

leverage the temporal coherence found within video

streams, creating a more dependable detection

framework. By utilizing cue combination, it achieves

multiple and real-time detection capabilities. For each

detected face, the system constructs a feature-based

model and tracks it across successive frames using

varied model information. The research focuses

specifically on video streams, where the advantage of

incorporating temporal coherence can be fully

realized. In reference (Marco, Oscar, et al. , 2007), a

notable aspect of advanced driver assistance systems

(adas) in contemporary vehicles is traffic sign

recognition (tsr), also referred to as road sign

recognition (rsr). To meet the critical demands to

achieve real- time performance and resource

efficiency, we propose a highly optimized hardware

implementation for traffic sign recognition (tsr). The

tsr process is divided into two main phases: detection

and recognition. During the detection phase, the

normalized rgb colour transform is utilized along with

single-pass connected component labelling (ccl) to

effectively identify potential traffic signs. Most

German traffic signs are assumed to be red or blue

and typically take the form of circles, triangles, or

rectangles. Our enhancement to single- pass ccl

eliminates "merge-stack" operations by recording

related regional relationships during the scanning

phase and updating the labels in the iteration phase,

thereby streamlining the process..

3 FACE DETECTION USING

VIOLA JONES ALGORITHM

The widely celebrated application of the Viola-Jones

algorithm is in face detection. The fundamental stages

indicates here are:

Data Preparation: This initial stage involves

assembling a dataset consists of both positive and

negative images. Positive images contain faces, while

negative images do not. These collections are crucial

for training the algorithm.

Feature Extraction: The second stage involves

using Haar features to extract relevant data from the

images by calculating the difference between the sum

of pixel intensities in white and black areas, which are

represented by rectangular patches.

Training: During this phase, the Ada Boost

algorithm is employed to train a series of weak

classifiers. Each classifier is specifically trained to

recognize a certain Haar feature.

Detection: In the detection stage, the algorithm

slides a window of various sizes over a test image,

applying a cascade of classifiers to each window. This

cascade determines whether each window contains a

face or not, with faces being indicated by a bounding

box.

Post-processing: Finally, the algorithm applies

post- processing techniques to refine the detection

results, reducing false positives and enhancing the

accuracy of the bounding boxes. The Viola-Jones

algorithm is favoured in numerous applications due to

its speed and accuracy in face detection. It has been

effectively implemented in devices and systems such

as digital cameras, facial recognition software, and

security systems, showcasing its practical utility in

real- world scenarios.

Data Collection: The data is gathered from

secondary resources such as scholarly articles, books,

and digital platforms. Each source was meticulously

chosen for its relevance and reliability concerning the

subject matter. Scholarly publications and texts

pertaining to the Viola-Jones algorithm and image

processing formed the cornerstone of the research.

Digital resources including blogs, forums, and other

online platforms provided additional insights,

enriching the primary data acquired from academic

texts.

Figure 1: Edge Features

Data Analysis: The analysis of data in this study

employed a qualitative approach. This involved a

thorough examination of the collected sources to

extract pertinent details. This information was then

organized into thematic categories, which guided the

development of the research methodology.

Qualitative research emphasizes the interpretation of

social phenomena to grasp their deeper meaning and

complexity. It is particularly effective in addressing

the qualitative dimensions of human experiences that

are beyond numerical measurement. In this study, the

qualitative method facilitated the detection of

patterns, linkages, and themes within the data.

Organizing the data into themes provided structured

framework that enhanced the analysis, highlighting

similarities and variances within the data. This

structured approach not only clarified the

understanding of the topic but also ensured that the

devised methodology was deeply rooted in the

empirical data and aligned with the research

objectives.

4 METHODOLOGY

Detection Process: The Viola-Jones algorithm is

engineered primarily to election of frontal faces,

experiencing limitations when identifying faces

angled to the side, upward, or downward. Initially, the

image is transformed into grayscale, a format that

simplifies processing due to its reduced data

requirements. The algorithm first pinpoints a face

within these grayscale images before locating the

same face in the collared image. It delineates a

rectangular box that commences its search from the

top-right corner, moving leftward. This process

involves scanning for Haar-like features, which will

be elaborated on later in this discussion. The search

process incrementally shifts the right boundary of the

rectangle with each step across the image.

4.1 Haar-like Features

Named after Alfred Haar, a Hungarian mathematician

known for his work on Haar wavelets, these features

are crucial for the algorithm's function and

characterized by adjacent rectangular regions at a

specific position within a detection window,

contrasting in pixel intensities, which the algorithm

uses to distinguish different facial features. Viola and

Jones categorized these into three main types: a. Edge

Features, b. Line Features, c. Four- Rectangle

Features, d. Integral Images, e. Training Classifiers,

f. Adaptive Boosting, g. Cascading.

4.2 Edge Features

Edge features are particularly effective in scenarios

like eyebrow detection where there is a stark contrast

between the dark pixels of the eyebrows and the

lighter skin tones surrounding them. These features

capture these abrupt changes in pixel intensity, aiding

in the accurate delineation of facial features as

showed in Figure1.

4.3 Line Features

Line features excel in identifying areas such as the

lips, where the pixel intensity transitions from light to

dark and back to light. These features are adept at

capturing the nuanced changes in shading across the

facial contour. For a visual example, see Figure2.

Figure 2: Line Features

4.4 Four Side Features

Each feature is assigned a value that reflects its

effectiveness in aiding the machine's interpretation of

the image. This value is determined by measuring the

difference between sum of the pixels values of black

and the white region. For a visual reference

represented in Figure3, where the value is obtained by

subtracting the white area from the black area.

371

Figure 3: Four rectangular features

4.5 Integral Images

As the number of pixels increases or in a larger image,

calculating the value of a feature becomes extremely

difficult. To execute complex computations quickly

and to determine to meet the requirements, the

Integral Image idea is used as depicted in Figure4.

4.6 Training Classifiers

During the training stage of the Viola-Jones

algorithm, the classified information is fed into the

algorithm to learn from the data and make

predictions. The algorithm establishes a minimal

threshold to decide if anything qualifies as a feature

or not. The image is reduced to 24x24 pixels during

the training stage and is scanned for features.

Figure 4: Working of integral image

4.7 Adaptive Boosting

To obtain an accurate model, all potential places and

configurations of features are examined. Training can

be computationally expensive as it takes a long time

to examine every potential combination in each

image. A strong classifier is referred to as F(x), and a

single classifier is weak, but combining two or three

weak classifiers produces strong classifier, which is

called an ensemble.

4.8 Cascading

Cascading is an additional technique used to enhance

the model's accuracy and speed. The sub-window is

selected, from which the best characteristic is chosen

to identify its presence in the image. If not, sub-

window is rejected, and the next one is selected. If it

is present, the second feature is examined, and if not,

it is rejected, and the process continues. This process

is sped up by cascading, and the machine produces

results more quickly.

5 CASCADE OBJECT

DETECTOR

It employs the Viola-Jones method to detect

human faces, noses, eyes, mouths, and upper bodies.

Viola-Jones algorithm processes a grayscale image,

analyzing multiple smaller sub-regions to identify

facial features by examining specific traits within

each sub-region. Given that an image may contain

faces of various sizes, the algorithm must inspect

multiple locations and scales. Viola and Jones

leveraged Haar-like features in their method to

facilitate face detection. Furthermore, a custom

classifier can be trained to operate with this system

object using the Image Labeller tool. This allows for

precise identification of upper body or facial features

within an image.

Call the object with arguments, as if it were a

function It uses the Viola-Jones method to create an

object detector. This method takes time to train but

can quickly recognize faces in real-time.

The process has four key steps: a. choosing

specific features b. making an integral image, Training

with Ada Boost, c. Building classifier cascades

372

Figure 6: Output image for Fig 5

Figures 5 and 6 illustrate that edge and line

features help detect edges and lines, while four-sided

features are used to find diagonal patterns.

Cascade Object Detection Algorithms: To

develop an object recognition model, features are

extracted from labeled images to capture the target

object's characteristics. These features are then used

to build a classification model, which is employed for

robust object detection. Training image dimensions

determine the smallest detectable object region, so the

Min Size property should be set accordingly. Careful

feature extraction, image size selection, and model

parameter configuration are crucial for building a

reliable classification model. By following this

process, a model can be constructed for various object

recognition tasks, enabling accurate detection and

classification of objects in images.

Cascade of Classifiers: The detector employs a

series of classifiers that are organized in a series to

scan efficiently the image for the targeted object. As

mentioned in Figure 7, each stage uses increasingly

the binary classifiers that enabling the rapid dismissal

of regions that lacks with the target object. If a region

does not pass, then it is immediately discarded, by

avoiding the necessity for more intensive analysis in

later stages.

Multi-resolution Object Detection: Detector

using a sliding window that matches training image

Calculating search area size at each step

Correlation among Man-size, Max-Size, and

ScaleFactor: Object size and scale factor crucial for

detection parameters. Min Size and Max Size define

detectable object size range. Adjusting parameters

when object size is known reduces computation time.

Scale Factor impacts search window sizes.

Merge Detection Threshold: Search window

detects objects at each scaling increment, producing

multiple detections. Detections merged into single

bounding box per object based on Merge Threshold

property, ensuring accurate object detection.

data.

6 IMPLEMENTATION

6.1 Mathematical Formulation

Let's denote the input image as I(x,y), where x and y

are the spatial coordinates. The Haar wavelet feature

extraction can be represented as:

H(x,y)=∑i=0N−1hi\*I(x+i,y)

(1)

where hi are the Haar wavelet coefficients and N

is the number of coefficients. The AdaBoost training

can be represented as:

F(x,y)=∑i=0M−1fi\*H(x+i,y) (2)

where fi are the AdaBoost weights and M is the

number of weak classifiers.

The cascaded classifier can be represented as:

C(x,y)=∑i=0L−1ci\*F(x+i,y) (3)

where ci are the cascaded classifier weights and L

is the number of stages. ci are the cascaded classifier

weights and L is the number of stages.

Application to Crowd Monitoring to apply the

Viola- Jones algorithm to crowd monitoring, we can

use the following approach:

6.1.1 Pre-processing

Apply pre-processing techniques such as

background subtraction and thresholding to enhance

the quality of the input image.

Background Subtraction:

Let I(x,y) be the input image and B(x,y) be the

background image. The background subtracted

image S(x,y) can be represented as

S(x,y)=max(I(x,y),B(x,y))∣I(x,y)−B(x,y)∣ (4)

Thresholding

Let I(x,y) be the input image and T be the

threshold value. The thresholded image T(x,y)

Noise Removal (Gaussian Filter)

Let I(x,y) be the input image and G(x,y) be the

Gaussian filter. The filtered image F(x,y) can be

represented as:

F(x,y)=∑i=−NN∑

j=−NNG(i,j)⋅I(x+i,y+j)/(2N+1)2 (5)

Where N is the filter size and G(i,j) is the

Gaussian filter kernel.

Edge Detection (Sobel Operator)

Let I(x,y) be the input image. The edge detected

image E(x,y) can be represented as:

E(x,y)=(Gx2+Gy2)/2

( 6 )

where Gx and Gy are the gradients in the x and y directions,

respectively.

6.1.2 Feature Extraction

Use Haar wavelets to extract features from the

pre- processed image. Let I(x,y) be the pre-rocessed

image. The Haar wavelet feature extraction can be

represented as:

H(x,y)=∑i=0N−1hi⋅I(x+i,y) (7)

where hi are the Haar wavelet coefficients and N

is the number of coefficients. Alternatively, you can

also use the following equation:

H(x,y)=∑i=0N−1∑j=0N−1hi⋅hj⋅I(x+i,y+j) (8)

INCOFT 2025 - International Conference on Futuristic Technology

374

This equation uses a 2D Haar wavelet transform

to extract features from the image. hi and hj are the

Haar wavelet coefficients, which are used to convolve

with the image to extract features. Also, N is the

number of coefficients, which determines the size of

the feature vector. Adjust the value of N to change the

number of features extracted from the image.

6.1.3 Classifier Training

Train an AdaBoost classifier on the extracted

features to detect people in the crowd. Let H(x,y) be

the extracted features from the pre-processed image.

The AdaBoost classifier training can be

represented as:

F(x,y)=∑i=0M−1fi⋅hi⋅H(x+i,y) (9)

Where fi are the AdaBoost weights, hi are the

Haar wavelet coefficients, and M is the number of

weak classifiers. This equation uses a combination of

Haar wavelet features and AdaBoost weights to train

a strong classifier for people detection in the crowd.

fi are the AdaBoost weights, which are used to

combine the weak classifiers to form a strong

classifier. M is the number of weak classifiers, which

determines the complexity of the strong classifier.

Adjust the value of M to change the accuracy and

speed of the people detection algorithm.

6.1.4 Cascaded Classifier

Use the trained classifier in a cascaded framework

to detect people in the crowd. Let F(x,y) be the strong

classifier trained in the previous stage. The cascaded

classifier can be represented as:

C(x,y)=∑i=0L−1ci⋅F(x+i,y) (10)

where ci are the cascaded classifier weights and L

is the number of stages. This equation uses a product

of strong classifiers to form a cascaded classifier,

which improves the accuracy and speed of people

detection in the crowd. ci are the cascaded classifier

weights, which are used to combine the strong

classifiers to form a cascaded classifier. L is the

number of stages, which determines the complexity

of the cascaded classifier. This proposal is

implemented using MATLAB software Version

r2020b.

detecting human faces in images, utilizing a

combination of techniques such as Haar-like features,

Integral Images, and Adaptive Boosting. This

research sheds light on the algorithm's capabilities

and limitations, paving the way for future exploration.

Potential applications include crowd counting,

surveillance, and healthcare, while integrating deep

learning techniques could further enhance its

accuracy and efficiency. By optimizing its

performance and exploring new use cases, the Viola-

asset in various fields.
