Description

Road accidence monitoring method
Technical field
The present invention relates to the method for monitoring accident on highway, relate more specifically to method with rapider and reliable mode monitoring accident on highway.
Background technology
According to dictionary, accident means and exists fault, and more particularly, accident means " fault of improper generation on highway, or the fault of the traffic capacity of all reduction highways are as traffic accident, vehicle trouble or parking, the barrier that falls and maintenance job ".
If this accident has taken place on highway, just need, but up to now promptly with the accident declaration traffic control center, these accidents are normally by knowing through the driver's of the vehicle of the scene of the accident report.
Therefore, the control of vehicle and dredge and incured loss through delay runs into very big difficulty in many vehicles are long-time.
Particularly, in the high country of the distribution cost resemble the Korea S, the generation of this accident can cause serious problem.
Consider these situations, the someone has proposed and can whether have the accidence monitoring method of accidents caused vehicle by monitoring the highway inspection recently.
Fig. 1 is the exemplary plot of the method that is used for the monitoring accident of explanation prior art.
That is, Fig. 1 has shown the screen-picture that obtains by the camera that is installed in the tunnel.The method of this monitoring accident proposes in Australia.
With reference to Fig. 1, from the screen highway three tracks 3 and walkway 1 are arranged, and, a plurality of box traps (box type trAP) 7 are arranged respectively on track 3 and walkway 1, a box trap 7 comprises a plurality of pixels simultaneously.To depend on the circumstances and what pixels a box trap comprises.
Generally, can moving by 7 monitorings of the box trap on screen, set 3 vehicles that move 5 and this vehicle 5 along the track.
That is, be included in along the track gray-scale value that picture that each pixel in the 3 a plurality of box traps that are provided with 7 have the relevant highway of taking from the camera (not shown) obtains.
At this moment, box trap 7 is detected the variation of gray-scale value in ground, unit one by one, thereby detect vehicle 5 and whether move or stop.
Camera is taken the highway image in real time and captured image is offered the traffic control center in real time.
Therefore, if box trap 7 is followed the trail of gray-scale value in ground, unit one by one, just can detect accident vehicle from the seasonal effect in time series angle.
At this moment, if gray-scale value changes in time, it is mobile that vehicle 5 is considered to, and when not variation in time of gray-scale value, vehicle 5 is considered to stop.
If detect accident, can produce predetermined alerting signal and take to tackle the measure of this accident by aforesaid program.
But the method that is used for the monitoring accident of prior art has been used the gray-scale value of a large amount of pixels for the detection accident, needs a large amount of calculation step when the detection accident, has consumed many times.
Simultaneously, the method that is used for the monitoring accident of prior art around environment do not have can differentiate exactly in the place that changes such as the tunnel vehicle on own route.
But and the tunnel is different, common surrounding environment each constantly all in the place that changes, the method for prior art will differentiate exactly that vehicle is inconvenient.
In other words, the shade of many non-vehicles such as shade tree or street lamp is usually arranged at the periphery of highway, or the shade of vehicle, these shadow falls are mapped on the track, thereby produce these are projected the problem that shade misidentification on the track is made vehicle.
Therefore, can not differentiate vehicle exactly, this may produce serious problem aspect the reliability of the method for this monitoring accident.
Summary of the invention

Embodiment
Following detailed description is introduced the accidence monitoring method according to the preferred embodiments of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings.
Fig. 2 is the exemplary plot of explanation according to the screen of the accidence monitoring method of the preferred embodiments of the present invention.
Figure 2 shows that the screen of the image that demonstration obtains by the camera that is installed on the highway.
In this screen, there is track 14 both sides, and the centre is a central partition 16,14 somebody trade, the outside or buildings in the track, and simultaneously, vehicle 13 moves on track 14 respectively.
In addition, the vehicle 13 in also have moving and be incident upon shade 15 on each track 14 by sunlight.
On the screen of the image that obtains by aforementioned program, form predefined line style trap 11.
This line style trap 11 is arranged on each track 14 along the direct of travel of vehicle 13.Certainly, as long as trap 11 is positioned on the track 14, can just line style trap 11 be arranged on the track 14 regardless of the position in track 14.At this moment, line style trap 11 is configured to parallel with track 14 a queue of.
The present invention uses the gray-scale value detection accident of the relevant pixel of the line style trap 11 that is provided with in such a way, and at this moment, each pixel should cover line style trap 11, and promptly the gray-scale value of other pixel on line style trap 11 has not been excluded.
As mentioned above, according to prior art, setting be the box trap that comprises numerous pixels, and the gray-scale value of these pixels is used to the detection accident, therefore needs considerable arithmetic operation.
But the present invention only considers to be included in pixel on the line style trap 11 and the detection accident, so the mode of detection accident is quicker.
Although be arranged in the gray-scale value of the pixel of row on this line style trap 11 generally is accurate, because the gray-scale value of some other other pixel of factor possibility and out of true.
For addressing this problem, the present invention calculates the mean value of a certain pixel and the gray-scale value of the pixel of the predetermined number that is present in these pixel front and back, specify the representative gray-scale value of the pixel gray-scale value of this calculating, calculate in such a way at the representative gray-scale value that is arranged in all pixels on the line style trap 11 for relevant pixel.
For example, suppose that pixel 1, pixel 2, pixel 3, pixel 4, pixel 5, pixel 6, pixel 7 are included on the line style trap 11, and each pixel there is gray-scale value.Consider pixel 1, the mean value of each gray-scale value of calculating pixel 1 and pixel 2 also can be appointed as the gray-scale value that calculates the gray-scale value of pixel 1.
Equally, the mean value of each gray-scale value of calculating pixel 1, pixel 2, pixel 3, thereby the representative gray-scale value of pixel 2 is calculated.In this way, 7 representative gray-scale value is calculated from pixel 1 to pixel.
By the analysis to the variation conversion of each representative gray-scale value of calculating in such a way, associated vehicle 13 is identified, and can determine whether the vehicle of being discerned accident has taken place.
In Fig. 2, No. 3 vehicles are identified and have caused accident, thereby are identified black line style trap 19 of front and back mark of the vehicle 17 that has caused accident at this.
Calculate the representative gray-scale value of each pixel in such a way, the precision of gray-scale value can be further improved thus.
In addition, if the vehicle 13 in moving is identified by the line style trap 11 on the screen, corresponding to the mark 12 of relevant vehicle 13 by perpendicular to line style trap 11 marks.
Simultaneously, the shade 15 of vehicle 13 or the shade 15 of shade tree and street lamp are arranged on screen.
If these shades 15 may be taken shade as vehicle on the track by mistake.
For preventing this mistake, the present invention has the gray value information of predefined each vehicle and shade.
This gray value information is shown in Fig. 3 a and Fig. 3 b.
Here, Fig. 3 a has shown the gray value information of vehicle.Generally, vehicle has various lights by the many parts reflections that are present in vehicle itself, therefore exists various gray-scale values,, exist very wide gray-scale value scope from high to extremely low, thereby the frequency of each gray-scale value is relatively low that is.
Fig. 3 b has shown the gray value information of shade.Generally, shade has similar substantially gray-scale value in each zone, and therefore, to compare gray-value variation less with vehicle, but frequency is higher relatively.
Therefore, under the situation of vehicle, the amplitude broad of gray-value variation but frequency is relatively low, and under the situation of shade, the amplitude of gray-value variation is narrow but frequency is higher relatively.
If this gray value information is known in advance, can distinguish relevant gray-scale value by the more current gray value information that is identified as the zone of vehicle with predefined gray value information is real vehicle or shade.
Fig. 4 is the process flow diagram of explanation according to the accidence monitoring method of the preferred embodiments of the present invention.
With reference to Fig. 4, the first step uses camera to obtain an images (S21) from the presumptive area on the highway, and this camera is installed on the crossing of urban district or highway.
If obtained image in such a way, line style trap (S22) is set on the basis of the image that is obtained, at this moment,, also can set in advance the line style trap if camera obtains image from same presumptive area termly.
This line style trap preferably is arranged on the track abreast with the track.
In addition, the image that is obtained can pass through predefined screen display, and whether the operator also can accident take place by the visual visual detection vehicle that shows in such a way.
Certainly, the objective of the invention is to use the variation transition detection car accident of gray-scale value of the image of acquisition, rather than visual detection car accident in such a way.
At this moment, if the line style trap is set, calculate the gray-scale value (S23) corresponding to each pixel of the line style trap of setting, here, calculating is meant obtains the gray-scale value that drops on the pixel on the line style trap in the gray-scale value that obtains on the camera picture shot.
If calculate the gray-scale value of each pixel in such a way, be the precision of the gray-scale value that ensures each pixel, calculate the representative gray-scale value (S24) of each pixel of each presumptive area.
As mentioned above, calculate the mean value of a certain pixel and the pixel gray-scale value of the predetermined number that is present in these pixel front and back, and this mean value that calculates is designated as the representative gray-scale value of this pixel.
Consider next pixel, calculate the mean value of this next pixel and the pixel gray-scale value of the predetermined number that is present in these next pixel front and back in a similar manner, and the mean value that this calculates is appointed as the representative gray-scale value of this next pixel.By this method, the representative gray-scale value that is included in all pixels in the line style trap is calculated.
Catch vehicle (S25) by the variable quantity that uses the average gray value that calculates in such a way.That is, the analysis that is present in the gray-scale value of each pixel on the line style trap discloses, automobile storage point and do not have automobile storage point between gray-scale value be different.If a bit there is the gray-value variation of this mode in certain, just think that relevant point has automobile storage to exist.
If follow the trail of vehicle in such a way, the gray value information and the predefined gray value information of the vehicle of being caught compared, thereby determine whether it is real vehicle (S26).
Here, gray value information is represented the amplitude of variation and the frequency of gray-scale value.
As mentioned above, vehicle is different (with reference to Fig. 3 a and Fig. 3 b) with its gray value information of shade that is not vehicle.
Can determine by using this different gray value information whether the vehicle of current seizure is real vehicle.
Promptly, result according to the comparison of the gray value information of the vehicle that is captured and predefined gray value information, if the gray value information of the vehicle that is captured conforms to the gray value information of predefined vehicle, the vehicle that then is captured is confirmed to be real vehicle.
On the contrary, if the gray value information of the vehicle that is captured conforms to predefined shade gray value information, the vehicle that then is captured is confirmed to be shade.
If be confirmed to be real vehicle by step S26 vehicle, judge whether that then the vehicle of being caught has stopped the time of predetermined length (S27), this judgement can not change in the preset time section by the gray-scale value of checking the vehicle of whether being caught at an easy rate and carries out.
That is, if the gray-scale value of the vehicle of being caught does not change in the preset time section, the vehicle of being caught is considered to stop always, and the possibility that associated vehicle breaks down is very high.
On the contrary, if the gray-scale value of the vehicle of being caught continues to change in the preset time section, it is mobile that the vehicle of being caught is considered to, and vehicle may be normal vehicle.
To judge whether that in such a way time that vehicle has stopped predetermined length is the normal vehicle misidentification of temporary parking to be made to cause the mistake of the vehicle of accident in order preventing in advance, as press the vehicle that traffic lights are indicated temporary parking.
Therefore, if the vehicle that the result caught judged of S27 keeps stopping time of predetermined length set by step, the vehicle of being followed the trail of is identified and has caused accident (S28).
If vehicle is identified and has caused accident in such a way, cause that on screen the front and back of the vehicle 17 of accident form black line style trap 19 (with reference to Fig. 2).
Illustrate clearly that as the front this accidence monitoring method only uses the gray-scale value detection accident of the relevant pixel on the line style trap, thus rapider than the method detection accident of the box trap of prior art.
In addition, this accidence monitoring method uses the variable quantity and the frequency detection accident of gray-scale value, thereby has prevented from the shade misidentification is done the mistake of vehicle, may can reach high reliability on the detection accident.
Though the present invention shows with reference to its specific preferred embodiment and illustrates, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that and can carry out the change on various forms and the details and not break away from the spirit and scope of the present invention that appended claim is determined it.
Aforesaid embodiment and advantage are exemplary, should not be regarded as limitation of the present invention.Principle of the present invention can be applied on the equipment of other type at an easy rate.Instructions of the present invention is illustrative, does not limit the scope of the claims.Many replacements, modifications and variations are conspicuous for these those skilled in the art.In the claims, the bar item that device adds function is in order to cover the structure of the function that execution described here puies forward, and is not only the equivalence of structure and is the structure of equivalence.
