Abstract
En 中文
The training workflow of neural networks can be quite complex, potentially time-consuming, and require specific hardware to accomplish operation needs. This study presents a novel analytical video-based approach for vehicle tracking and vehicle volume estimation at nighttime using a monocular traffic surveillance camera installed over the road. To build this approach, we employ computer vision-based algorithms to detect vehicle objects, perform vehicle tracking, and vehicle counting in a predefined detection zone. To address low-illumination conditions, we adapt and employ image noise reduction techniques, image binary conversion, image projective transformation, and a set of heuristic reasoning rules to extract the headlights of each vehicle, pair them belonging to the same vehicle, and track moving candidate vehicle objects continuously across a sequence of video frames. The robustness of the proposed method was tested in various scenarios and environmental conditions using a publicly available vehicle dataset as well as own labeled video data.
