Description

The speed of a motor vehicle based on machine vision and the detection method of vehicle queue length
Technical field
The traffic parameter that the present invention relates to intelligent transportation system gathers field, the particularly a kind of speed of a motor vehicle based on machine vision of city intersection and detection method of vehicle queue length of being applied to.
Background technology
Along with economic fast development, traffic has also obtained very large development, but a lot of problems but occurred, and as traffic congestion, traffic hazard take place frequently and traffic environment deterioration etc., and these problems have had influence on daily life.Intelligent transportation system is the newest fruits that transport solution transportation problem is explored.
In urban transportation, intersection affects the traffic safety level in whole city.When the average speeds of intersection is down to below 2km/h, vehicle starts to queue up, and traffic congestion occurs., when vehicle, exercise when slow, the exhaust emissions amount can increase simultaneously, and this just makes the air quality in city further worsen.In real time dynamic traffic information collection is the key that realizes intelligent transportation.And the real-time speed of a motor vehicle of road and vehicle queue length are the key foundation data of intelligent transportation system, so be necessary very much the speed of a motor vehicle of city intersection and the detection method of queue length are studied.
Research about the information acquisition of the speed of a motor vehicle and vehicle queue length in real time at present also starts to obtain extensive concern, has obtained certain achievement in research.Especially in real time the speed of a motor vehicle, as one of important parameter of intelligent transportation, is widely used on expressway and through street.
Although it is so ripe that the research of vehicle queue length detection method does not have the speed of a motor vehicle to detect, and along with the quick emergence of graph processing technique and computer vision, obtained development to a certain degree yet.
The inventor, in realizing process of the present invention, finds that at least there is following shortcoming and defect in prior art:
Prior art mainly concentrates on the good vehicle detection of traffic environment such as highway, through street, can't be applied to complicated city intersection.
The judgement complexity of vehicle queue state.
Summary of the invention
Be confined to highway and through street in order to solve prior art, improve accuracy rate, real-time and the robustness of detection method, the embodiment of the present invention provides a kind of speed of a motor vehicle based on machine vision and the detection method of vehicle queue length, and specific embodiments is as follows:
Camera pedestal is located on the other support in crossing, with the oncoming vehicle of the angle shot of overlooking.The traffic video obtained by video camera, comprising and the speed of a motor vehicle and the irrelevant bulk information of vehicle queue, in speed of a motor vehicle testing process, if entire image is processed, certainly will cause calculated amount excessive, be difficult to meet the requirement that detects the vehicle real-time, need to remove the information irrelevant with detecting vehicle, therefore surveyed area need to be set.In video image, surveyed area is arranged between the stop line and People's Bank of China's zebra stripes of intersection, and the interference that this zone is subject to is minimum; Carry out background calculus of differences, shadow removal and morphology area and fill in surveyed area, then the bianry image obtained is carried out to vertical projection, utilize the vertical projection curve map to judge whether vehicle exists; If there is vehicle, calculate vehicle and sail and roll away from surveyed area frame number used into, calculate instantaneous velocity according to the frame per second of video camera and the width of surveyed area, and then obtain the average speed of intersection.
Vehicle occurs that queuing phenomena is generally when red interval or crossing occur during vehicle pass-through slowly is green light that the speed of a motor vehicle is lower, therefore, when the speed of a motor vehicle being detected lower than 2km/h, starts to start the queue length trace routine.
Because during vehicle queue, camera acquisition to the lane width of frame of video the inside along with the increase of queue length, reduce gradually, in order to improve accuracy of detection, this paper adopts a plurality of telescopic windows (being transformable virtual coil) to be detected, the width of telescopic window is set according to the lane line width at place, in order to can effectively reduce error.In the vehicle queue situation, can set a corresponding n telescopic window, calculate n the pixel count that telescopic window is corresponding simultaneously, then the height that utilizes video camera to set up, surveyed area are demarcated video camera apart from the horizontal range of video camera, visual angle width and the angle of depression size of video camera, thereby can derive actual range corresponding to each pixel, and then calculate the length of vehicle queue.
The accompanying drawing explanation:
In order to be illustrated more clearly in inventive embodiments or technical scheme of the prior art, below will the accompanying drawing of required use in embodiment or description of the Prior Art be briefly described, apparently, accompanying drawing in the following describes is only some embodiments of the present invention, for those of ordinary skills, do not paying under the prerequisite of creating work, can also obtain with reference to the accompanying drawings other accompanying drawing.
Fig. 1 is that embodiment of the present invention surveyed area arranges exemplary plot.
Fig. 2 is the exemplary plot of embodiment of the present invention vehicle queue detection method.
Embodiment:
For making the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention clearer, below in conjunction with accompanying drawing, embodiment of the present invention is described further in detail.
In the fixed position of each two field picture of video, the surveyed area that covers a plurality of tracks that will monitor is set.The position of surveyed area is arranged between the stop line and People's Bank of China's zebra stripes of city intersection.The position of surveyed area arranges as shown in Figure 1, carries out the background calculus of differences in surveyed area, utilizes current frame image and background image to subtract each other and the binarization segmentation moving region.Then carry out shadow removal, morphology area filling and vertical projection.
Vertical projection method refers to the number of the bianry image in surveyed area being added up from left to right to each row non-zero pixels of this bianry image.If there is car to exist in surveyed area, will obtain the waveform of sealing through vertical projection, the width of this waveform is the width of moving region.When the width of moving region than given threshold value T wgreatly, judgement has the existence of vehicle.Given threshold value T wbe set to 90% of common coupe body width.If there is vehicle, calculate vehicle and sail and roll away from surveyed area frame number used into, calculate instantaneous velocity according to the frame per second of video camera and the width of surveyed area, and then obtain the average speed of intersection.The separate processing in each track, the flow process that process in each track is identical.
When the speed of a motor vehicle being detected lower than 2km/h, start to start the queue length trace routine.
Because during vehicle queue, camera acquisition to the lane width of frame of video the inside along with the increase of queue length, reduce gradually, in order to improve accuracy of detection, this paper adopts a plurality of telescopic windows (being transformable virtual coil) to be detected, the width of telescopic window is set according to the lane line width at place, in order to can effectively reduce error.The width of first telescopic window is set to threshold value W 1, in y direction of principal axis length, be N 1(N 1for Vehicle length pixel of place queuing line, the flase drop of avoiding tomography and vehicle space to cause); The width of second telescopic window is set to threshold value W 2, in y direction of principal axis length, be N 2, the rest may be inferred, and the width of n telescopic window is made as W n, in y direction of principal axis length, be N n.As shown in Figure 2.
The telescopic window algorithm is as follows:
First telescopic window is placed on stop line place, track, when first telescopic window non-zero pixels and be greater than a certain threshold value being detected, and in telescopic window all non-zero pixels and with the previous moment window in all non-zero pixels and difference be less than a certain threshold value, telescopic window length adds N 1, on the y direction of principal axis, extend N 1individual pixel unit, otherwise length minimizing, but can not be less than a pixel.
The maximal value M that is elongated to setting when first telescopic window 1the time, it is no longer elongation just, at this moment opens second telescopic window.Repeat above-mentioned steps.
By that analogy, until open n telescopic window.
According to above-mentioned detection method, in the vehicle queue situation, can set a corresponding n telescopic window, calculate n the pixel count that telescopic window is corresponding simultaneously, then the height that utilizes video camera to set up, surveyed area are demarcated video camera apart from the horizontal range of video camera, visual angle width and the angle of depression size of video camera, thereby can derive actual range corresponding to each pixel, and then calculate the length of vehicle queue.
The foregoing is only preferred embodiment of the present invention, in order to limit the present invention, within the spirit and principles in the present invention not all, any modification of doing, be equal to replacement, improvement etc., within all should being included in protection scope of the present invention.
