Vision Based Vehicle Detection and Traffic Parameter Extraction
Mei Ling Yu, Yong Deak Kim · IEICE Transactions on Fundamentals of Electronics Communications and Computer Sciences · 2001
This paper describes two methods for vehicle detection and shadow rejection. They include the land mark based-method and the background subtraction with edge detection method. Using the two methods allows for vehicle counting, tracking, classification, and speed estimation to take place. This then enables the load of each lane to be described through the extraction of real-time traffic flow parameters.
