A crowding degree estimation method applied to an electronic device is provided. In the method, the electronic device determines a remaining carrying space of a carriage according to an image viewed from a top of an interior of the carriage, and determines a recommended remaining number of people that can be carried according to the remaining carrying space, the number of people already in the carriage, and a maximum number of people that can be carried of the carriage. The electronic device determines the crowding degree according to the recommended remaining number of people. The method can determine the crowding degree of each carriage of a public transportation and recommend passengers with less crowded carriages to save passengers' waiting time.

Crowding degree estimation method, electronic device and storage medium

A method of determining a congestion degree of a compartment applied to an electronic device is provided. The electronic device determines a remaining carrying space of the compartment according to a binarized passenger distribution image of the compartment. A predicted remaining number of passengers that can be carried in the compartment is determined according to the remaining carrying space. The electronic device determines a recommended remaining number of passengers that can be carried in the compartment based on a number of passengers currently in the compartment, the predicted remaining number of passengers, and a maximum number of passengers that can be carried in the compartment. The electronic device can determine the degree of congestion of the compartment according to the recommended remaining number of passengers that can be carried in the compartment and the maximum number of passengers that can be carried in the compartment.
