This demo provides an inference pipeline for persons' detection, recognition and reidentification. The demo uses Person Detection network followed by the Person Attributes Recognition and Person Reidentification Retail networks applied on top of the detection results. You can use a set of the following pre-trained models with the demo:
person-vehicle-bike-detection-crossroad-0078, which is a primary detection network for finding the persons (and other objects if needed)person-attributes-recognition-crossroad-0230, which is executed on top of the results from the first network and reports person attributes like gender, has hat, has long-sleeved clothesperson-reidentification-retail-0031, which is executed on top of the results from the first network and prints a vector of features for each detected person. This vector is used to conclude if it is already detected person or not.
For more information about the pre-trained models, refer to the model documentation.
Other demo objectives are:
- Images/Video/Camera as inputs, via OpenCV*
- Example of simple networks pipelining: Person Attributes and Person Reidentification networks are executed on top of the Person Detection results
- Visualization of Person Attributes and Person Reidentification (REID) information for each detected person
On the start-up, the application reads command line parameters and loads the specified networks. The Person Detection network is required, the other two are optional.
Upon getting a frame from the OpenCV VideoCapture, the application performs inference of Person Detection network, then performs another two inferences of Person Attributes Recognition and Person Reidentification Retail networks if they were specified in the command line, and displays the results.
In case of a Person Reidentification Retail network specified, the resulting vector is generated for each detected person. This vector is compared one-by-one with all previously detected persons vectors using cosine similarity algorithm. If comparison result is greater than the specified (or default) threshold value, it is concluded that the person was already detected and a known REID value is assigned. Otherwise, the vector is added to a global list, and new REID value is assigned.
NOTE: By default, Open Model Zoo demos expect input with BGR channels order. If you trained your model to work with RGB order, you need to manually rearrange the default channels order in the demo application or reconvert your model using the Model Optimizer tool with
--reverse_input_channelsargument specified. For more information about the argument, refer to When to Reverse Input Channels section of Converting a Model Using General Conversion Parameters.
Running the application with the -h option yields the following usage message:
crossroad_camera_demo [OPTION]
Options:
-h Print a usage message.
-i Required. An input to process. The input must be a single image, a folder of images or anything that cv::VideoCapture can process.
-loop Optional. Enable reading the input in a loop.
-m "<path>" Required. Path to the Person/Vehicle/Bike Detection Crossroad model (.xml) file.

-l "<absolute_path>" Optional. For MKLDNN (CPU)-targeted custom layers, if any. Absolute path to a shared library with the kernels impl.
Or
-c "<absolute_path>" Optional. For clDNN (GPU)-targeted custom kernels, if any. Absolute path to the xml file with the kernels desc.
-d "<device>" Optional. Specify the target device for Person/Vehicle/Bike Detection. The list of available devices is shown below. Default value is CPU. Use "-d HETERO:<comma-separated_devices_list>" format to specify HETERO plugin. The application looks for a suitable plugin for the specified device.
-d_pa "<device>" Optional. Specify the target device for Person Attributes Recognition. The list of available devices is shown below. Default value is CPU. Use "-d HETERO:<comma-separated_devices_list>" format to specify HETERO plugin. The application looks for a suitable plugin for the specified device.
-d_reid "<device>" Optional. Specify the target device for Person Reidentification Retail. The list of available devices is shown below. Default value is CPU. Use "-d HETERO:<comma-separated_devices_list>" format to specify HETERO plugin. The application looks for a suitable plugin for the specified device.
-pc Optional. Enables per-layer performance statistics.
-r Optional. Output Inference results as raw values.
-t Optional. Probability threshold for person/vehicle/bike crossroad detections.
-t_reid Optional. Cosine similarity threshold between two vectors for person reidentification.
-no_show Optional. No show processed video.
-auto_resize Optional. Enables resizable input with support of ROI crop & auto resize.
-u Optional. List of monitors to show initially.
-person_label Optional. The integer index of the objects' category corresponding to persons (as it is returned from the detection network, may vary from one network to another). The default value is 1.
Running the application with an empty list of options yields the usage message given above and an error message.
To run the demo, you can use public or pre-trained models. To download the pre-trained models, use the OpenVINO Model Downloader. The list of models supported by the demo is in models.lst.
NOTE: Before running the demo with a trained model, make sure the model is converted to the Inference Engine format (*.xml + *.bin) using the Model Optimizer tool.
For example, to do inference on a GPU with the OpenVINO™ toolkit pre-trained models, run the following command:
./crossroad_camera_demo -i <path_to_video>/inputVideo.mp4 -m <path_to_model>/person-vehicle-bike-detection-crossroad-0078.xml -m_pa <path_to_model>/person-attributes-recognition-crossroad-0230.xml -m_reid <path_to_model>/person-reidentification-retail-0079.xml -d GPUNOTE: The detection network returns as the result a set of detected objects, where each detected object consists of a bounding box and an index of the object's category (person/vehicle/bike). The demo runs Person Attributes Recognition and Person Reidentification networks only for the bounding boxes that has the category "person". Since different detection networks may have different category index corresponding to the category "person", this index may be pointed by the command line parameter
-person_label. Please, note that
- the model
person-vehicle-bike-detection-crossroad-0078returns for persons the category index 1, it is the default value for the demo- the model
person-vehicle-bike-detection-crossroad-1016returns for persons the category index 2, so for the demo to work correctly, the command line parameter-person_label 2should be added.
The demo uses OpenCV to display the resulting frame with detections rendered as bounding boxes and text. In the default mode, the demo reports Person Detection time - inference time for the Person/Vehicle/Bike Detection network.
If Person Attributes Recognition or Person Reidentification Retail are enabled, the additional info below is reported also: * Person Attributes Recognition time - Inference time of Person Attributes Recognition averaged by the number of detected persons. * Person Reidentification time - Inference time of Person Reidentification averaged by the number of detected persons.
NOTE: On VPU devices (Intel® Movidius™ Neural Compute Stick, Intel® Neural Compute Stick 2, and Intel® Vision Accelerator Design with Intel® Movidius™ VPUs) this demo has been tested on the following Model Downloader available topologies:
