Researchers have developed a new method called Depth-Guided Detector (DG-Det) to improve video object counting in crowded scenes. Unlike previous methods that relied solely on RGB information, DG-Det integrates depth cues with multi-scale RGB-D cross-attention and explicit occlusion prediction. This approach enhances spatial understanding and provides more robust detection, even in occluded conditions. The system also includes a de-duplication framework to prevent redundant counting across frames and has been validated with a new RGB-D Video Object Counting dataset, showing a significant reduction in Mean Absolute Error (MAE) compared to existing methods.
