Abstract

In today's world, accurately counting and classifying vehicles in real-time has become a critical task for effective traffic management, surveillance, and transportation systems. It plays a crucial role in optimizing road infrastructure, enhancing safety measures, and making informed decisions for traffic planning. With the ever-increasing traffic congestion and road safety concerns, the demand for a robust and automated vehicle counting and classification system has grown significantly. Traditionally, vehicle counting, and classification involved manual deployment of sensors or fixed cameras at specific locations. However, these methods had limitations in handling complex traffic scenarios, especially in real-time, and were less efficient in dealing with varying environmental conditions, occlusions, and different vehicle types. Fortunately, recent advancements in deep learning models have revolutionized object detection, making real-time vehicle counting and classification achievable. One such model is the YOLO (You Only Look Once) algorithm based on the Darknet framework. Leveraging the power of this model, a real-time vehicle counting, and classification system has been developed, utilizing the OpenCV library. The system employs a pretrained YOLO model to detect the number of vehicles present in a given video and classifies the type of each vehicle. By doing so, it eliminates the need for extensive human intervention and ensures automated and accurate counting of vehicles in real-time. Moreover, this system excels in handling varying traffic conditions and different vehicle types, which enhances its accuracy and reliability. The benefits of this proposed system are numerous. It provides valuable data for traffic analysis, enabling better traffic management strategies and improved infrastructure planning. With this system in place, authorities can efficiently address traffic congestion, implement targeted safety measures, and optimize traffic flow. Further, the integration of the YOLO algorithm within the Darknet framework in the proposed system has opened new possibilities for real-time traffic management. By leveraging deep learning, this system offers a reliable and efficient solution to the challenges posed by modern traffic scenarios, helping to create safer and more organized road networks for everyone.
