Vehicle Detection in Static Images Using Color and Corner Map
R. Aarthi, S Padmavathi, J. Amudha · 2010
This paper presents an approach to identify the vehicle in the static images using color and corner map. The detection of vehicles in a traffic scene can address wide range of traffic problems. Here an attempt has been made to reduce the search time to find the possible vehicle candidates thereby reducing the computation time without a full search. A color transformation is used to project all the colors of input pixels to a new feature space such that vehicle pixels can be easily distinguished from non-vehicle ones. Bayesian classifier is adopted for verifying the vehicle pixels from the background. Corner map is used for removing the false detections and to verify the vehicle candidates.
