Fast Vehicle Detection and Tracking on Fisheye Traffic Monitoring Video using CNN and Bounding Box Propagation
We design a fast car detection and tracking algorithm for traffic monitoring fisheye video mounted on crossroads. We use ICIP 2020 VIP Cup dataset and adopt YOLOv5 as the object detection base model. The nighttime video of this dataset is very challenging, and the detection accuracy (AP50) of the base model is about 54 the concept of bounding box propagation among frames, which provides 17.9 percentage points (pp) and 7 pp accuracy improvement over the base model for the nighttime and daytime videos, respectively. To speed up, the grayscale frame difference is used for the intermediate frames in a segment, which can double the processing speed.
