摘要：Crowd Crowd counting is not simply a matter of counting the numbers of people, but also requires that one obtains people’s spatial distribution in a picture. It is still a challenging task for crowded scenes, occlusion, and scale variation. This paper proposes a global and local attention network (GLANet) for efficient crowd counting, which applies an attention mechanism to enhance the features. Firstly, the feature extractor module (FEM) uses the pertained VGG-16 to parse out a simple feature map. Secondly, the global and local attention module (GLAM) effectively captures the local and global attention information to enhance features. Thirdly, the feature fusing module (FFM) applies a series of convolutions to fuse various features, and generate density maps. Finally, we conduct some experiments on a mainstream dataset and compare them with state-of-the-art methods’ performances.
