    22== Cameras
    33
    4 Video cameras are particularly useful for collecting data in smart cities. They facilitate detection and tracking of vehicles, pedestrians and other objects by feeding videos into AI-enabled cloud compute servers. COSMOS nodes in New York City are equipped with cameras to facilitate research on a variety of smart city applications. COSMOS pilot site contains four permanently installed cameras which are recording scenes at the intersection of 120th Street and Amsterdam Avenue.

    3230=== Anonymization Workflow for 1st and 2nd-floor Cameras
    3331
    34 12-th floor cameras capture images of cars and pedestrians such that neither faces nor license plates can be recognized - therefore there is no need for post-processing for privacy protection.
     32The annonymization workflow is described in the following paper. We would appreciate it if you cite this paper when publishing results obtained using the datasets above.

    3640Videos from the 1st and 2nd floor, saved in this directory, are the outputs of the COSMOS YOLOv4 blurring pipeline.
     
    50543. Blurred frames are written to the output video file.

    52 The YOLOv4 blurring model is trained in Darknet on the Mudd 1st floor video
    53 dataset annotated in Summer 2021. Deep learning models for detection and tracking have been converted from Darknet to Nvidia TensorRT for
    54 integration into the current implementation of the blurring pipeline.
