The paper presents a deep learning-based methodology for detecting social distancing in order to assess the distance between people in order to mitigate the impact of the coronavirus pandemic. The input was a video frame from the camera, and the open-source object detection was pre-trained. The outcome demonstrates that the suggested method is capable of determining the social distancing measures between many participants in a video.

Social distancing is a non-pharmaceutical infection prevention and control approach that is now being utilized in the COVID-19 scenario to avoid or restrict the transmission of illness in a community. As a consequence, the disease transmission, as well as the morbidity and mortality associated with it are reduced. The deadly coronavirus will circulate if the distance between the two persons in each site is used. However, coronavirus exposure must be avoided at all costs. The distance varies due to different nations' political rules and the conditions of their medical embassy. The WHO established a social distance of 1 to 2 metres as the standard. This research work has developed a computational method for estimating the impact of coronavirus based on various social distancing metrics. Generally, in COVID – 19 situations, social distance ranging from long to extremely long can be a good strategy. The adoption of extremely small social distance is a harmful approach to the pandemic. This calculation can be done by using deep learning based on crowd image identification. The proposed work has been utilized to find the optimal social distancing for COVID – 19 and it is identified as 1.89 meter. The purpose of the proposed experiment is to compare the different types of deep learning based image recognition algorithms in a crowded environment. The performance can be measured with various metrics such as accuracy, precision, recall, and true detection rate.

Social distancing is one of the simple and effective shields for every individual to control spreading of virus in present scenario of pandemic coronavirus disease (COVID-19). However, existing application of social distancing is a basic model and it is also characterized by various pitfalls in case of dynamic monitoring of infected individual accurately. Review of existing literature shows that there has been various dedicated research attempt towards social distancing using available technologies, however, there are further scope of improvement too. This paper has introduced a novel framework which is capable of computing the level of threat with much higher degree of accuracy using distance and duration of stay as elementary parameters. Finally, the model can successfully classify the level of threats using deep learning. The study outcome shows that proposed system offers better predictive performance in contrast to other approaches.
