Abstract

The article deals with the problem of counting cars in large-scale video surveillance systems. The proposed method is based on car tracking and counting the number of tracks intersecting the given signal line. We use a distributed tracking algorithm. It reduces the amount of necessary computational resources and increases performance up to realtime by detecting vehicles in a sparse set of frames. We adapted and modified the approach previously proposed for people tracking. Proposed improvement of the speed estimation module and refinement of the motion model reduced the detection frequency by 3 times. The experimental evaluation shows that the proposed algorithm allows reaching an acceptable counting quality with a detection frequency of 3 Hz.
