Vehicle Identification Using Wavelet Entropy and Particle Swarm Optimization Support Vector Machine

Abstract

Abstract:In order to identify Ford vehicles from non-Ford vehicles, this paper proposed a novel method based on the combination of wavelet entropy, particle swarm optimization, and support vector machine. We collect a 100-image dataset, 50 are Ford vehicles and the rest 50 are non-Ford vehicles. The results show that our method obtained a sensitivity of 82.20± 3.94%, a specificity of 81.60± 3.50%, and an accuracy of 81.90± 0.74%. In all, this method is promising in vehicle identification.
