In order to resist the adverse effect of viewpoint variations for improving vehicle re-identification performance, we design quadruple directional deep learning networks to extract quadruple directional deep learning features (QD-DLF) of vehicle images. The quadruple directional deep learning networks are with similar overall architecture, including the same basic deep learning architecture but different directional feature pooling layers. Specifically, the same basic deep learning architecture is a shortly and densely connected convolutional neural network to extract basic feature maps of an input square vehicle image in the first stage. Then, the quadruple directional deep learning networks utilize different directional pooling layers, i.e., horizontal average pooling (HAP) layer, vertical average pooling (VAP) layer, diagonal average pooling (DAP) layer and anti-diagonal average pooling (AAP) layer, to compress the basic feature maps into horizontal, vertical, diagonal and anti-diagonal directional feature maps, respectively. Finally, these directional feature maps are spatially normalized and concatenated together as a quadruple directional deep learning feature for vehicle re-identification. Extensive experiments on both VeRi and VehicleID databases show that the proposed QD-DLF approach outperforms multiple state-of-the-art vehicle re-identification methods.

In this paper, a MEMS microphone array system scheme is proposed which implements real-time direction of arrival (DOA) estimation for moving vehicles. Wind noise is the primary source of unwanted noise on microphones outdoors. A multiple signal classification (MUSIC) algorithm is used in this paper for direction finding associated with spatial coherence to discriminate between the wind noise and the acoustic signals of a vehicle. The method is implemented in a SHARC DSP processor and the real-time estimated DOA is uploaded through Bluetooth or a UART module. Experimental results in different places show the validity of the system and the deviation is no bigger than 6° in the presence of wind noise.
