Traffic flow optimization within traffic networks has been approached through different kinds of methods. One of the methods is to reconfigure the traffic signal timing plan. However, dynamic characteristic of the traffic flow is not able to be resolved by the conventional traffic signal timing plan management. As a result, traffic congestion still remains as an unsolved problem. Thus, in this study,...
Vehicle tracking is an essential approach that can help to improve the traffic surveillance or assist the road traffic control. Recently, the development of video surveillance infrastructure has incited the researchers to focus on the vehicle tracking by using video sensors. However, the amount of the on-road vehicle has been increased dramatically and hence the congestion of the traffic has made...
Image segmentation has been widely applied in image analysis for various areas such as biomedical imaging, intelligent transportation systems and satellite imaging. The main goal of image segmentation is to simplify an image into segments that have a strong correlation with objects in the real world. Homogeneous regions of an image are regions containing common characteristics and are grouped as single...
In recent years, tracking vehicle with overlapping and maneuvering disturbances has become a challenging task in visual tracking. Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) is proved to be effective in tracking vehicle under disturbances by probabilistically estimating the vehicle position. However the sampling based tracking algorithm is highly depending on the sampling efficiencies where adequate chain length...
Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) has been essential in tracking vehicle undergoing disturbances for traffic surveillance purposes. It is capable of tracking vehicle by estimating the vehicle's position with the sampling of probability distributions. However the accuracy of the position estimation is highly dependent on the sampling efficiency of MCMC. Therefore the sample size of the MCMC is adapted...
A new algorithm for license plate character recognition is proposed on the basis of Signature analysis properties and features extraction. Signature analysis has been used to locate license plate region and its properties can be further utilised in supporting and affirming the license plate character recognition. This paper presents the implementation of Signature Analysis combined with Features Extraction...
Image segmentation with low computational burden has been highly regarded as important goal for researchers. Various image segmentation methods are widely discussed and more noble segmentation methods are expected to be developed when there is rapid demand from the emerging machine vision field. One of the popular image segmentation methods is by using normalised cuts algorithm. It is unfavourable...
Nowadays, vehicle tracking is a vital approach to assist and improve the road traffic control, surveillance and security systems by having the detail of the captured vehicle information. In past, many tracking techniques have been implemented and suffered from the well known 'occlusion' problems. Increasing the accuracy of the tracking algorithm has caused the computational cost due to the inflexibility...
Vehicle detection and tracking is essential in traffic surveillance and traffic flow optimization. However, occlusion or overlapped vehicle tracking is difficult and remain a challenging research topic in image processing. In this paper, a conventional Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) is enhanced via Cumulative Sum (CUSUM) path plot in order to track vehicles in overlapping situation. By calculating...
