Specific embodiment
With reference to the accompanying drawings and examples technical solution of the present invention is described in further details, following examples are not constituted Limitation of the invention.
The present embodiment illustrates taking intelligent transportation electronic police system as a example, by the polyphaser linkage in set point To be exposed adjusting.As shown in figure 1, having three crossroads in set point, each orientation stand in each crossroad If an electronic police camera, the electronic police camera at each crossing is connected with the router at this crossing, then passes through IP network Connect the data processing server of rear end.The present embodiment set point can be certain selected region, such as same street; Or according to the radius setting, the coverage of whole intelligent transportation electronic police system is divided into multiple adjacent circle Domain, each border circular areas is operated as a set point.
Affected by light source incident angle and intensity, the region of interest such as car plate in the become image of camera under identical light exposure There is significant difference in the brightness in domain.The area-of-interest of the present embodiment image shot by camera is license plate area or front The upper right corner of glass pastes the region of environmental protection mark, and the present embodiment illustrates taking license plate area as a example.For example, from West to East Road scene in, morning frontlighting time period direct irradiation of sunlight car plate, camera can be obtained relatively using less light exposure Bright car plate assumes effect;The shade of leads to car plate light filling not enough the backlight time period in the afternoon, and the car plate obtaining same brightness presents Effect then needs bigger light exposure;And in the road scene from east orientation west, then antipodal situation occurs, that is, upper The shade of backlight time period at noon leads to car plate light filling not enough, needs larger light exposure could obtain brighter car plate effect;Under Noon frontlighting time period direct irradiation of sunlight car plate, same car plate brightness presents and only needs to less light exposure.
According to above-mentioned phenomenon, and due to car plate light-reflecting property keep constant it is known that the light exposure of car plate brightness and camera And the intensity of illumination of car plate is related, the intensity of illumination metric that the present embodiment defines car plate surface is I, and:
I = P B L S * G * A C
Wherein, PBL is car plate brightness, and S is the aperture time of camera, and G is the gain of camera, and AC is the aperture conversion of camera Coefficient, S*G*AC is the light exposure of camera.
It is easily understood that intensity of illumination metric I, can also be calculated by equation below:
I = α * P B L S * G * A C
Wherein α is the coefficient setting, a usually constant.
Below by the Changing Pattern of the intensity of illumination metric I on research car plate surface, to conclude multiphase in set point Dependency between machine.According to statistical data, obtain car plate in the image formed by two equidirectional cameras at different crossings The statistical result of intensity of illumination metric section during the day, as shown in Fig. 2 a, Fig. 2 b, as can be seen from the figure different crossings is same In image formed by the camera of direction, the intensity of illumination metric of car plate has very strong similarity, but image formed by single camera The numerical value of the intensity of illumination metric of middle car plate has difference.Separately, the formed figure of the camera of two different directions at identical crossing As in car plate intensity of illumination section during the day statistical result, as shown in Figure 3 a and Figure 3 b shows, even if as can be seen from the figure position In same place, because direction is different, in image formed by two cameras the intensity of illumination metric of car plate do not have any similar Property.
In the present embodiment image according to formed by camera, the similarity between the intensity of illumination metric of car plate, comes to setting In the range of polyphaser carry out dividing packet, the camera of the property of will have like is divided into one group, and the camera without similarity divides Different groups.
It should be noted that the calculating of intensity of illumination metric, can be calculated it is also possible to by data by camera Manage server to be calculated.When by data processing server to be calculated, camera reports light exposure and the car plate brightness to be Can.Car plate brightness in the same manner can also be calculated by camera or data processing server is to be calculated, and repeats no more here.
Calculated in order to avoid concentrating on data processing server, the present embodiment preferably, is shooting phase by camera After piece, calculate the brightness of area-of-interest (car plate), and intensity of illumination metric I is calculated according to light exposure.Thus data Processing server by being calculated to the intensity of illumination metric of the car plate that each camera reports and can analyze and process, by camera It is divided into different groups, the camera in every group has substantially common direction, and obtains on all cameras in each group by statistics The meansigma methodss of the intensity of illumination metric of car plate of report, calculate the light exposure of each group camera, the camera in this group further Shooting image is come with the light exposure calculating, makes the light exposure of camera more accurately and stable, improve and expose for area-of-interest Stability and preconditioning that light is adjusted, optimize the Intelligent Measurement for area-of-interest and identification..

Count area-of-interest in the become image of each camera in set point according to the default time cycle respectively first The meansigma methodss of corresponding intensity of illumination metric.For example, 30 minutes of default time cycle, initial time is morning 7:30, Have A, B, C, D, E totally 5 cameras in system, data processing server with 30 minutes as cycle, calculate respectively camera A, B, C, D, E are 7:30~8:00、8:00~8:30、8:30~9:00 ... wait each time period in car plate intensity of illumination metric flat Average.
Then, the meansigma methodss according to each camera intensity of illumination metric of car plate within each time period, judge set point Dependency between interior each camera, related camera is divided into same group, incoherent camera is divided into different groups.
Specifically, judge dependency, can first according to camera the intensity of illumination metric of the car plate in each time period flat Average simulates the corresponding matched curve of meansigma methodss of the intensity of illumination metric of the car plate of each camera respectively, then calculates each The similarity of the corresponding matched curve of camera, the similarity of this matched curve is the intensity of illumination metric of car plate between camera Meansigma methodss between dependency, when similarity be more than set threshold value when, judge camera correlation, related camera is divided in Same group.
It should be noted that with regard to the calculating of curve similarity, possessing more conventional mathematical method in prior art, this In repeat no more.Simultaneously for the judgement of dependency, as shown in Figure 3 a, 3 b, the matched curve difference of the camera of different directions Very big, therefore set suitable threshold value, you can judge that the matched curve of which camera is similar, carry out packet and divide.With regard to correlation The judgement of property, can also choose a camera, with this camera as standard, by the matched curve of other cameras and this phase from camera Machine carries out Similarity Measure, finds out the camera similar to this camera as one group, then selects one from remaining camera again Camera, as standard, proceeds Similarity Measure, finishes until dividing.
The present embodiment can also calculate the intensity of illumination tolerance of the car plate in each same time period for two cameras respectively Ratio between the meansigma methodss of value, then the intensity of illumination metric according to this car plate in each time period for two cameras is average Ratio relation between value, to judge the dependency between each camera.If ratio remains stable, that is, ratio is maintained at one Determine in scope, such as fluctuating margin is within positive and negative 5%, or then thinks two camera phases within specific numerical value 0.8~1.2 Close, related camera is divided in same group.
Need explanation, the present embodiment to be judged with the meansigma methodss of the car plate intensity of illumination metric of default time cycle Dependency, the car plate intensity of illumination metric that can also be directly shot with each time point is judged.The amount of calculation of the latter More also more discrete greatly, the present embodiment preferably employs the former method and is judged, repeats no more here.
Step S3, for the camera being divided in same group in set point, count camera area-of-interest pair in this group The meansigma methodss of the intensity of illumination metric answered, measure according to the corresponding intensity of illumination of camera area-of-interest in this group counting The target brightness value of the meansigma methodss of value and area-of-interest calculates camera exposure amount in this group, and by the camera exposure calculating Amount is as the follow-up light exposure shooting of camera in this group.

E = T Σ 1 n I n
Wherein, E is the light exposure of camera, and T is default car plate target brightness value,Send for cameras all in this group The intensity of illumination metric of car plate meansigma methodss.
Then the camera exposure amount of each group calculating is sent to all cameras in same group, each camera is according to connecing The light exposure that the back-end server receiving sends adjusts the parameters such as aperture time and the yield value of this camera, carries out successive image Shoot, make the car plate brightness in shooting image consistent with default car plate object brightness.
It should be noted that the data processing server meeting of rear end calculated and update each group in real time or according to the time cycle Camera exposure amount, and only calculate certain group camera exposure amount (go up with the light exposure of camera current shooting The camera exposure amount of secondary transmission) difference be more than set threshold value after, just can by update after this group camera exposure amount send To all cameras of this group, if the camera exposure amount calculating certain group is existed with the difference of the light exposure of camera current shooting In the threshold range setting, then will not resend the camera exposure amount of this group.Camera holds server to send upon receipt Before new light exposure, have been used up the light exposure that last time receives and carry out image taking, send out until receiving back-end server The new light exposure sent.
