State Machine and Downhill Simplex Approach for Vision-Based Nighttime Vehicle Detection

Abstract: In this paper, a novel vision-based nighttime vehicle detection approach is presented, combining state machines and downhill simplex optimization. In the proposed approach, vehicle detection is modeled as a sequential state transition problem; that is, vehicle arrival, moving, and departure at a chosen detection area. More specifically, the number of bright pixels and their differences, in a chosen area of interest, are calculated and fed into the proposed state machine to detect vehicles. After a vehicle is d… Show more

“…In most cases, a driver's visual and cognitive driving-workload can be improved through clever human factor engineering combined with an HUD and obstacle detection technologies [9]. In particular, to deal with obstacles, new approaches for vehicle tracking and nighttime vehicle detection were proposed to improve the stability and robustness [10], [11]. In addition, a two-step pedestrian detection was used to reduce the computation time of the algorithm, and an iterative particle repropagation method was proposed to enhance its tracking accuracy [12].…”

“…In order to solve this problem, several preceding studies have been attempted to automate the traffic volume survey [2][3][4][5][6]. There have been many attempts to measure vehicle traffic using sensors [7] or image processing methods [4,[8][9][10]. However, there is a risk of damage or loss when using the sensors installed for a long time, and it is difficult to distinguish between vehicle types when using the image processing method.…”
