An R-Based Genetic Algorithm for Placement of Surveillance Cameras

Abstract

Video Surveillance with CCTV is widely used for structure monitoring. In this study, we deal with a placement problem of multi-type cameras. We suggest an R-based genetic algorithm to find a feasible solution of surveillance cameras placement problem that satisfies required coverage with minimum cost. We considered 2-dimensional floor plan of structure and available installation area. We could find an approximate solution with required coverage.
