Abstract

The main objective of this work is to automatically detect moving vehicles on the road. Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) classifier is adopted in this paper to classify moving vehicles on road. An input traffic video scenes are taken with vertical and horizontal positioned cameras. The proposed system contains six major steps such as preprocessing, vehicle detection, tracking, structural matching, feature extraction and classification. In this proposed method, preprocessing consists of color conversion and noise removal. Vehicle detection is performed by using background subtraction and Otsu thresholding algorithm. Kalman filter is used in the third step to track moving vehicles in successive frames. In the fourth step, Active Shape Modelling method is used to recover the 3D shape of the vehicle in order to find the boundaries of vehicle. In the fifth step, features of the detected vehicles are extracted by Harrish corner detector, log Gabor filter and these features are taken into account to classify the types of vehicle. Finally, ANFIS is proposed to classify the vehicles which is trained by updating the membership function. Experimentation results provides better accuracy rate and low mean error rate when compared with the state of art methods.
