Abstract

The pandemic has changed the way people interact with each other in the public setting. As a result, social distancing has been implemented in public society to reduce the virus’s spread. Automatically detecting social distancing is paramount in reducing menial manual tasks. There are several methods to detect social distance in public, and one is through a surveillance camera. However, detecting social distance through a camera is not an easy task. Problems, such as lighting, occlusion, and camera resolution, can occur during detection. The research aims to develop a physical distancing detector system that is adjusted to work with Indonesian rules and conditions, especially in Jakarta, using deep learning (i.e., YOLOv4 architecture with the Darknet framework) and the CrowdHuman dataset. The detection is done by reading the source video, detecting the distance between individuals, and determining the crowd of individuals close to each other. In order to accomplish the detection, the training is done with CSPDarknet53 and VGG16 backbone in YOLOv4 and YOLOv4 Tiny architecture using various hyperparameters in the training process. Several explorations are made in the research to find the best combination of architectures and fine-tune them. The research successfully detects crowds at the 16th training, with mAP50 of 71.59% (74.04% AP50) and 16.2 Frame per Second (FPS) displayed on the web. The input size is essential for determining the model’s accuracy and speed. The model can be implemented in a web-based application.
