Edge-based Video Analytic for Smart Cities

Video analytic is the important tool for smart city development. The video analytic application requires more memories and high processing devices. The problems of cloud-based approach for video analytic are high latency and more network bandwidth to transfer data into the cloud. To overcome these problems, we propose a model based on dividing the jobs into smaller sub-tasks with less processing requirements in a typical video analytics application for the development of smart city. The object detection, tracking and pattern recognition method to reduce the size of videos based on edge network will be proposed. We will design a video analytic model, and simulation is performed using iFogSim simulator. We will also propose Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) based object tracking model. The experimental verification shows that our tracking model is more than 96% accurate, and the proposed edge and cloud-based model is more than 80% effective than only cloud-based approach for video analytic applications.
