+## Algorithm
+
+The crowd-counting AI model used is based on this repository:
+https://github.com/ZhengPeng7/W-Net-Keras
+The dataset used is ShanghaiTech Part B.
+The model is given a 3-channel image and generates a density map of half the size of the input image.
+The estimated number of people is obtained by summing on all pixels of the density map.
