Researchers have developed a novel method for accurately counting crowds from drone footage, even without labeled data, which is crucial for large-scale events like the FIFA World Cup 2034 in Saudi Arabia and the Hajj pilgrimage. The system adapts to variations in footage and can predict dangerous crowd inflows before a crush occurs. This approach, validated through extensive testing, significantly improves accuracy by correcting undercounting in dense scenes and provides a reliable risk assessment module. AI
