Crowd Gathering Hotspot Prediction Across Multiple Cameras via Integrated Anomalous Aggregation Modeling
摘要
Urban surveillance systems are inherently limited in their ability to monitor complex crowd dynamics due to the restricted coverage of single-camera setups. This study proposes a novel Spatial-Temporal Graph Convolutional Network framework for predicting abnormal crowd aggregation. Our method introduces a composite anomaly aggregation metric that synthesizes three critical factors: the spatial distribution of abnormal groups (core anomaly intensity), ambient pedestrian flow variations (environmental sensitivity), and suppression mechanisms for regular large-scale gatherings. By constructing topological graphs based on camera networks and performing spatio-temporal convolution operations, the model effectively integrates multi-view information to identify latent risk areas. Combining the camera topology structure and the spatio-temporal graph convolutional network, this method can accurately predict abnormal aggregation points in the spatial and temporal dimensions, and effectively identify potential abnormal risk areas through multi-camera information fusion.
