Abstract: A method of calculating a size of a Gaussian kernel in a crowd counting system. The method includes dividing a crowd density map into several areas at equal intervals; calculating an estimated value of average distance of k nearest heads with respect to a head center point coordinate of a current person; calculating a weight coefficient for an average distance of k nearest heads; calculating a size of a Gaussian kernel corresponding to the head center point coordinate of the current person; determining whether there are any head center point coordinates of which sizes of Gaussian kernels have not been calculated yet in training data. If there are head center point coordinates of which sizes of the Gaussian kernels have not been calculated in the training data, recalculating an estimated value of average distance of k nearest heads with respect to another head center point coordinate of another current person.
