Abstract The problem of counting vehicles and determining the directions of their movement at an intersection is considered. A new zone-based method for counting vehicles which uses an additional inner contour is proposed. The presence of an additional inner contour helps to partially expands zones of interest and increases our chances of catching a vehicle in time. YOLO and CSRT tracker are used for detection and tracking of objects. Full flowchart of the working process including detection, tracking and counting, is given. The algorithm for inner contour constructing is proposed and it is shown that this contour presence reduces the error in counting vehicles.
