  Abstract

In this paper, we propose a histogram-based decalcomania matching algorithm to overcome the problem that conventional vehicle recognition methods for VDS (Vehicle Detection System) are difficult to be processed in real time due to high computational complexity. When we look at a vehicle from the front and divide it into exactly half, both halfs are symmetrical. This paper focuses on this point. The whole algorithm consists of four steps: setup of ROI (Region of Interest), object detection through background subtraction, morphology, and histogram-based decalcomania matching. The devised algorithm is implemented by OpenCV programming and executed on a small mini-PC platform. The performance evaluation results show that the proposed algorithm has run-time performance of 25fps@720p, vehicle recognition rate of 97.2% on average, and center coordinate error rate of average 9.58% or less under good weather.
