Abstract(in English) The problem of personal accidents of visually impaired individuals in public areas, such as station platforms, has become a social issue. In our previous study, we proposed a detection method of white-cane users (i.e. visually impaired individuals) based on surveillance cameras and YOLO. In this study, we proposed an evaluation method of this supporter supporting method based on videos divided into k frames.
