Abstract:
This paper presents the details of an integrated recognition system for identifying missing-and-found objects as well as missing, dead and found people during Muslim religious Hajj and Umrah seasons. Such system can be deployed in the two holy cities of Makkah and Medina in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The proposed system integrates facial recognition and object identification solutions during the Hajj and Umrah rituals. The missing-and-found computerised system is part of the proposed crowd-sensing system for Hajj and Umrah crowd estimation, management and safety.
