Comparing Classical and Modern Machine Learning Techniques for Monitoring Pedestrian Workers in Top-View Construction Site Video Sequences

Resumen

Keeping an overview of all ongoing processes on construction sites is almost unfeasible, especially for the construction workers executing their tasks. It is difficult for workers to concentrate on their work while paying attention to other processes. If their workflows in hazardous areas do not run properly, this can lead to dangerous accidents. Tracking pedestrian workers could improve the productivity and safety management on construction sites. For this, vision-based tracking approaches are suitable, but the training and evaluation of such a system requires a large amount of data originating from construction sites. These are rarely available, which complicates deep learning approaches. Thus, we use a small generic dataset and juxtapose a deep learning detector with an approach based on classical machine learning techniques. We identify workers using a YOLOv3 detector and compare its performance with an approach based on a soft cascaded classifier. Afterwards, tracking is done by a Kalman filter. In our experiments, the classical approach outperforms YOLOv3 on the detection task given a small training dataset. However, the Kalman filter is sufficiently robust to compensate for the drawbacks of YOLOv3. We found that both approaches generally yield a satisfying tracking performances but feature different characteristics.
