Abstract

Enormous advance has proven throughout the years in the area of traffic surveillance by the growth of intelligent traffic video surveillance system. In the current work, through the traffic videos, the traffic video surveillance automatically keyed out the vehicles like ambulance and trucks, which in turn assisted us in directing the vehicles at the time of emergency. Nevertheless, it doesn’t provide us a vital solution for the regulating the traffic. Moreover, this idea just identifies the vehicles, but it couldn’t notice the accidents expeditiously. Therefore in the proposed work, expeditious traffic video surveillance and monitoring system are presented along with dynamic traffic signal control and accident detection mechanism. Hybrid median filter has been utilized at the beginning for pre-processing of traffic videos, and to remove the noise. Hybrid support vector machine (SVM with extended Kalman filter) has been utilized to chase the vehicles. Next, the histogram of flow gradient features are drew-out to categories the vehicles. According to the traffic density and through video files, vehicles are computed, and then for emergency vehicles, the traffic signal gets switched dynamically. To realize the arrival of ambulances, the cameras have been set to catch traffic videos minimum at 500 m of the signal and deep learning neural networks has been employed. Hence dynamic signal control has been incorporated expeditiously. Likewise, multinomial logistic regression has been utilized in real-time live streaming videos, to identify the accidents correctly. The observational solution shows that the proposed intelligent traffic video surveillance system render expeditious dynamic control of traffic signals and it raises the identification of accidents correctly.
