1. Field of the Invention
The invention relates to a verification method and system for people counting and, more particularly, to a verification method and system allowing a user to easily determine whether the accumulated number of persons is incorrect.
2. Description of the Prior Art
A system, which counts the number of persons automatically by analyzing a video content, is now in widespread use. To evaluate the accuracy of people counting generated by the system objectively and effectively, it usually needs a person to verify the counting result. A conventional manner is to assign a person to a site and then the person counts the number of persons by pressing a counter at the site. The problem of the aforesaid manner is that the person cannot keep his/her attention without distraction for a long span of time, such that he/she may make a mistake. Especially, once there are lots of persons passing through the site simultaneously, the person cannot always count the correct number of persons. Furthermore, it is very difficult to verify whether the number of persons counted by the person is incorrect.
