AI-BPO: Adaptive incremental BLE beacon placement optimization for crowd density monitoring applications

2021 
With the pandemic of COVID-19, indoor crowd density monitoring has become one of the most critical responsibilities of public space managers. Beacon placement optimization has been tackled as fundamental research work as the performance of crowd density monitoring highly depends on how BLE beacons are allocated. In this research, we propose a novel beacon placement optimization approach to incrementally place the beacon on the updated detection status adaptively in favor of Bayesian optimization, which can help to provide the optimal beacon placement. Our proposed method can optimize the beacon placement effectively to improve the signal coverage quality in the given environment and minimize human workload.
