The purpose of this paper is to develop automatic incident detection algorithm using image based detector in freeway management system. This algorithm was developed by using neutral network for high speed roadway and by using speed and occupancy variable for low speed roadway. The image detector system with the developed automatic incident detection algorithm can detect multi-lane as well as several detect areas for each lane. To evaluate this system, field tests to measure the detecting rate of incidents were performed with other systems which have APID and DES algorithm at high speed roadway(freeway) and low speed roadway(national arterial). As the results of field test, it found that the detect rate of this system was highest rate comparing to other two systems.

The fire detectors used in the engine rooms of ships offer only a slow response to emergencies because smoke or heat must reach detectors installed on ceilings, but the air flow in engine rooms can be very fluid depending on the use of equipment. In order to overcome these disadvantages, much research on video-based fire detection has been conducted in recent years. Video-based fire detection is effective for initial detection of fire because it is not affected by air flow and transmission speed is fast. In this paper, experiments were performed using images of smoke from a smoke generator in an engine room. Data generated using LBP and GLCM operators that extract the textural features of smoke was classified using SVM, which is a machine learning classifier. Even if smoke did not rise to the ceiling, where detectors were installed, smoke detection was confirmed using the image-based technique.

Real-time information on vehicle queue at intersections is essential for optimal traffic signal control, which is substantial part of Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS). Computer vision is also potentially an important element in the foundation of integrated traffic surveillance and control systems. The objective of this research is to propose a method for detecting an exact queue lengths at signalized intersections using image processing techniques and a neural network model Fuzzy ARTMAP, which is a supervised and self-organizing system and claimed to be more powerful than many expert systems, genetic algorithms. and other neural network models like Backpropagation, is used for recognizing different patterns that come from complicated real scenes of a car park. The experiments have been done with the traffic scene images at intersections and the results show that the method proposed in the paper could be efficient for the noise, shadow, partial occlusion and perspective problems which are inevitable in the real world images.

The purpose of this paper is to develop a multi-sensor fusion-based traffic information acquisition system with robust to environmental changes. it combines the characteristics of each sensor and is more robust to the environmental changes than the video detector. Moreover, it is not affected by the time of day and night, and has less maintenance cost than the inductive-loop traffic detector. This is accomplished by synthesizing object tracking informations based on a radar, vehicle classification informations based on a video detector and reliable object detections of a infrared range finder. To prove the effectiveness of the proposed system, I conducted experiments for 6 hours over 5 days of the daytime and early evening on the pedestrian - accessible road. According to the experimental results, it has 88.7% classification accuracy and 95.5% vehicle detection rate. If the parameters of this system is optimized to adapt to the experimental environment changes, it is expected that it will contribute to the advancement of ITS.

Swift and appropriate responses in emergency situations like objects falling on the road can bring convenience to road users and effectively reduces secondary traffic accidents. In Korea, current intelligent transportation system (ITS)-based detection systems for emergency road situations mainly rely on loop detectors and CCTV cameras, which only capture road data within detection range of the equipment. Therefore, a new detection method is needed to identify emergency situations in spatially shaded areas that existing ITS detection systems cannot reach. In this study, we propose a ResNet-based algorithm that detects and classifies emergency situations from vehicle camera footage. We collected front-view driving videos recorded on Korean highways, labeling each video by defining the type of emergency, and training the proposed algorithm with the data.

영상검지기에서 차량 탐지를 위해 사용하는 방법은 배경차이(Background Differencing), 장면차이(Frame Differencing), 공간차이(Spatial Differencing), 밝기값 비교(Gray-Level Comparison) 등이 있다. 이 방법들중에서 배경차이 방법은 기준이 되는 배경영상과 입력영상의 차를 구해 차량을 탐지하는데 대부분의 영상검지기에서 채택 되어 사용되는 방법이다. 배경차이 방법에서 가장 중요한 것은 매번 기준이 되는 배경영상을 정확하게 구하는 것 인데, 영상내 차량의 흐름이 원활하다면 어느 배경생성 방법을 사용해도 좋은 결과를 얻을 수 있지만 차량의 정체 가 심하거나 장기간 지속되면 좋은 배경을 생성하기가 어렵다 특히 교차로의 경우 진행중인 차량 및 신호 대기중 인 차량이 통시에 존재하므로 배경생성에 더욱 어려움을 겪게된다. 이상에서 제시된 세 가지 배경생성 방법을 고속도로와 교차로에서 적용시켜 각 배경영상 생성 방법을 비교 분석한다.

대부분 영상검지기는 입력영상 전체영역의 밝기값에 기반하여 카메라가 받아들이는 광량을조절하는 자동 아이리스 방법을 채택하고 있다. 대형차량의 출현, 갑작스런 외부 일광의 변화가 있을 때 영상내 밝기값이 급격히 변할 수 있는데 기존 방법의 경우 기계적인 대응으로 인한 지연 때문에 차량을 미탐지하는 오류가 발생할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 사용자 제어 아이리스(UCI: User-Controlled Iris) 방법을 제안한다. 사용자 제어 아이리스를 사용할 경우 배경영상의 밝기값 변화에만 반응함으로써 움직이는 물체의 밝기값 또는 외부 일광이 급변하는 상황하에서도 양질의 입력영상을 얻을 수 있어 견고한 차량 탐지가 가능하다.

We frequently confront with cars interfering into our lane on the ramp. We suffered from serious traffic congestion due to the interfering cars. But the police enforcement has not done actively because it's hard to enforce. In this study, we have evaluated the systems to enforce cutting-in cars through the field test. Generally, the image processing method depends on the weather. To overcome this limitation we proposed a new algorithm combined with section detection method. In the filed test we concluded the results as follows. Whereas the violation detection rate of the general image processing was 58.2%, a new algorithm proposed by this study was 74.5%. And, an error rate enforcing vehicles that do not violate was 0.0%. Also, we can use the existing facilities, such as street light because of compact and lightweight systems which are integrated camera with controller. Therefore, we concluded that it is possible to enforce the interfering Cars using vehicle enforcement systems.

본 연구는 기존 구간 속도 예측기법의 고찰을 통하여 검지기에서 올라오는 교통제어변수를 이용하여 구간 속도 예측모형을 연구하는데 목적이 있다. 이를 위한 교통 제어변수로는 연속류 제어에서 통상적으로 사용되는 교통량, 점유율, 밀도, 속도 등을 사용한다. 공간적 범위로는 서울 올림픽대로의 17개의 영상 검지기 중 #3과 #16검지기에서 올라오는 속도, 점유율, 교통량 자료를 토대로 1998년 6월 11일 오전 7시부터 11시까지의 4시간동안 예측을 실시하며 Historical Traffic Pattern과 시험차량, 자동차 번호판 조사를 통한 구간 실측조사 자료를 토대로 예측을 위한 자료를 구축한다. 기존의 예측기법인 시계열 분석, 신경망 이론, 평활법과 칼만필터링을 고찰하였고, 가장 좋은 예측력을 보여주는 기법은 칼만필터링 모형이었다. 이를 토대로 Case Study를 통해 여러 구간의 다주기 예측을 통해 단기간(short-term)의 구간 속도를 예측하고 각 해당 검지기별 실측자료를 통해 비교분석을 실시하였다. 결과적으로 도출된 칼만필터링 모형의 다주기 예측을 통한 구간 통행속도의 예측이 기존의 구간 통행속도 산출 방법보다 더 나은 예측력을 보여주고 있다.
