CrowdCC：人群计数中联合基准测试损坏鲁棒性与部署量化

Abstract:Crowd-counting models deployed on edge devices face two shifts: inputs are degraded along the capture and transmission pipeline, while models are quantized to satisfy resource constraints. Yet corruption robustness and deployment quantization are typically evaluated separately. We introduce CrowdCC, a controlled corruption benchmark that jointly evaluates these effects using 23 deployment-motivated corruptions at three severity levels, four crowd-counting datasets, and 26 models using A100 TensorRT engines at FP32, FP16, and post-training INT8 precision, paired with throughput and energy measurements from corresponding Jetson Orin NX configurations. The corruptions span six families, with head annotations adjusted when geometry or visibility changes. Our evaluation shows that capture-chain corruptions consistently produce the largest degradation across the evaluated models, while crowd density affects absolute and relative error differently. Clean accuracy does not fully predict corrupted performance. INT8 alters corruption robustness substantially more than FP16, with no systematic direction, and does not consistently improve latency or energy. INT8 inference efficiency is strongly associated with reformat overhead in the compiled engine, while slowdowns are also observed under limited INT8 coverage. Precision changes corrupted-error rankings and robustness-cost frontiers, showing why model selection must consider corruption robustness and measured deployment cost together.
