Extrinsic Behavior Prediction of Pedestrians via Maximum Entropy Markov Model and Graph-Based Features Mining

With the change of technology and innovation of the current era, retrieving data and data processing becomes a more challenging task for researchers. In particular, several types of sensors and cameras are used to collect multimedia data from various resources and domains, which have been used in different domains and platforms to analyze things such as educational and communicational setups, emergency services, and surveillance systems. In this paper, we propose a robust method to predict human behavior from indoor and outdoor crowd environments. While taking the crowdbased data as input, some preprocessing steps for noise reduction are performed. Then, human silhouettes are extracted that eventually help in the identification of human beings. After that, crowd analysis and crowd clustering are applied for more accurate and clear predictions. This step is followed by features extraction in which the deep flow, force interaction matrix and force flow features are extracted. Moreover, we applied the graph mining technique for data optimization, while the maximum entropy Markov model is applied for classification and predictions. The evaluation of the proposed system showed 87% of mean accuracy and 13% of error rate for the avenue dataset, while 89.50% of mean accuracy rate and 10.50% of error rate for the University of Minnesota (UMN) dataset. In addition, it showed a 90.50 mean accuracy rate and 9.50% of error rate for the A Day on Campus (ADOC) dataset. Therefore, these results showed a better accuracy rate and low error rate compared to state-of-the-art methods.
