Vehicle Classification Based on Deep Convolutional Neural Networks Model for Traffic Surveillance Systems

Due to growth of vehicles in urban cities, such problems are increases traffic control systems, security and crime investigation, intelligent parking and electronic toll collection. Moreover, Logistics access management system (LMS)is also a big problem in urban cities and all the issues are challenging and demands to develop effective and efficient approach for vehicle classification. Mostly, traditional vehicle classification uses hand craft feature extraction method like SIFT, Surf, HoG etc. However, these approaches are not efficient in results. This paper presents the efficient framework for vehicle classification by using Inception-v3 model for image vector features extraction that is most advance deep learning neural network, and this model is not used before for vehicle classification. After that, different classification algorithms are implemented on the feature vector. The classification conducted on three vehicle datasets and results demonstration is helpful for researchers to choose dataset with algorithm performance.
