This paper presents a robust vehicle detection and tracking algorithm for supervision of illegal parking. The proposed algorithm is composed of four parts. First, a vehicle detection algorithm is proposed using the improved codebook object detection algorithm to segment moving vehicles from the input sequence. Second, a preprocessing technique using the geometric characteristics of vehicles is employed to exclude non-vehicle objects. Then, the detected vehicles are tracked by an object tracker which incorporates histogram tracking method with Kalman filter. To make the tracking results more accurate, histogram tracking results are used as measurement data for Kalman filter. Finally, Real Stop Counter (RSC) is introduced for trustworthy and accurate performance of the stopped vehicle detection. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can track multiple vehicles simultaneously and detect stopped vehicles successfully in the complicated street environment.

이 글에서는 본 실험실에서 개발한, 교통정보 추출을 위한 차량검지 알고리즘과 차량 추적 알고리즘, 모델에 기반한 차량의 인식과 추적을 위한 알고리즘, 지능형 차량을 위한 선행차량 인식과 차선 인식을 위한 영상 알고리즘에 대하여 살펴 보았고, 이들 알고리즘을 직접 도로영상에 적용하여 그 가능성을 살펴보았다. 교통 정보 추출용 차량 검지 알고리즘은 실험실에서 구성한 영상 검지기 시스템에 실제 적용되어 실시간으로 작동하고 있다. 그렇지만, 아직까지는 대부분의 알고리즘이 실시간 구현과 시스템 적용성에서 미흡한 상태이다. 따라서, 본 실험실에서는 이미 개발된 영상 알고리즘의 신뢰성 제고와 실시간 처리를 위해 알고리즘 자체의 성능 향상 뿐만 아니라 이를 수행하는 하드웨어에 대한 연구도 병행하고 있다.

Most of campus vehicle management systems, so far, have simple functions such as managing vehicle in/out or issuing parking tickets. Recently some of them use RFID tags to count total numbers of cars in the campus, excluding exact parking position management. In this paper we propose a new campus vehicle management system using wireless sensor network location management scheme. This system adopts RSSI based location management method with some performance improvement technique. According to the experimental result, this proposed scheme can be used to implement an effective campus vehicle management system.

Video image processing systems(VIPS) offer numerous benefits to transportation models and applications, due to their ability to monitor traffic in real time. VIPS based on wide-area detection, i.e., multi-lane surveillance algorithm provide traffic parameters with single camera such as flow and velocity, as well as occupancy and density. However, most current commercial VIPS utilize a tripwire detection algorithm that examines image intensity changes in the detection regions to indicate vehicle presence and passage, i.e., they do not identify individual vehicles as unique targets. If VIPS are developed to track individual vehicles and thus trace vehicle trajectories, many existing transportation models will benefit from more detailed information of individual vehicles. Furthermore, additional information obtained from the vehicle trajectories will improve incident detection by identifying lane change maneuvers and acceleration/deceleration patterns. The objective of this research was to relate traffic safety to VIPS tracking and this paper has developed a computer vision system of monitoring individual vehicle trajectories based on image processing, and offer the detailed information, for example, volumes, speed, and occupancy rate as well as traffic information via tripwire image detectors. Also the developed system has been verified by comparing with commercial VIP detectors.

This paper proposes an e-logistics system supporting efficient vehicle moving trajectory management. Recent advances in wireless communications have given rise to a number of location-based services including logistics vehicle tracking, cellular phone user's location finding, and location-based commerce. Logistics systems typically entail tracking vehicles for purposes of the logistics center knowing the whereabouts of the vehicles and/or consignments. Moreover, storing and managing location trajectory of continuously moving vehicles and consignments is necessary for supporting efficient logistics plan and consignment. The proposed system is able to manage spatial objects in GIS as well as logistic information in the mobile environment. And for the efficiently managing and retrieving of transporting trajectory of logistics, we extend previous moving object indexing method, TB-Tree, to use multi-version framework and evaluate data updating performance. It is able to apply the proposed method to develop mobile contents services based on continuously changing location of moving object in the mobile environment.

In the past, there have been many theory and algorithms for vehicle tracking. But the time complexity of many feature point matching methods for vehicle tracking are exponential. Also, object segmentation and detection algorithms presented for vehicle tracking are exhaustive and time consuming. Therefore, we present the fast and efficient two stages method that can efficiently track the many moving vehicles on the road. The first detects the vehicle plate regions and extracts the feature points of vehicle plates. The second associates the feature points between frames using dynamic programming.

VIPS based on a wide-area detection algorithm provide traffic parameters such as flow and velocity as well as occupancy and density. However, most current commercial VIPS utilize a tripwire detection algorithm that examines image intensity changes in the detection regions to indicate vehicle presence and passage, i.e., they do not identify individual vehicles as unique targets. If VIPS are developed to track individual vehicles and thus trace vehicle trajectories, many existing transportation models will benefit from more detailed information of individual vehicles. Furthermore, additional information obtained from the vehicle trajectories will improve incident detection by identifying lane change maneuvers and acceleration/deceleration patterns. However, unlike human vision, VIPS cameras have difficulty in recognizing vehicle movements over a detection zone longer than 100 meters. Over such a distance, the camera operators need to zoom in to recognize objects. As a result, vehicle tracking with a single camera is limited to detection zones under 100m. This paper develops a methodology capable of monitoring individual vehicle trajectories based on image processing. To improve traffic flow surveillance, a long distance tracking algorithm for use over 200m is developed with multi-closed circuit television (CCTV) cameras. The algorithm is capable of recognizing individual vehicle maneuvers and increasing the effectiveness of incident detection.
