Multifeature Fusion Vehicle Detection Algorithm Based on Choquet Integral

الملخص EN

Vision-based multivehicle detection plays an important role in Forward Collision Warning Systems (FCWS) and Blind Spot Detection Systems (BSDS).

The performance of these systems depends on the real-time capability, accuracy, and robustness of vehicle detection methods.

To improve the accuracy of vehicle detection algorithm, we propose a multifeature fusion vehicle detection algorithm based on Choquet integral.

This algorithm divides the vehicle detection problem into two phases: feature similarity measure and multifeature fusion.

In the feature similarity measure phase, we first propose a taillight-based vehicle detection method, and then vehicle taillight feature similarity measure is defined.

Second, combining with the definition of Choquet integral, the vehicle symmetry similarity measure and the HOG + AdaBoost feature similarity measure are defined.

Finally, these three features are fused together by Choquet integral.

Being evaluated on public test collections and our own test images, the experimental results show that our method has achieved effective and robust multivehicle detection in complicated environments.

Our method can not only improve the detection rate but also reduce the false alarm rate, which meets the engineering requirements of Advanced Driving Assistance Systems (ADAS).
