@article{735, author = {Xiaohui Huang and Pan He and Anand Rangarajan and Sanjay Ranka}, title = {Intelligent Intersection: Two-stream Convolutional Networks for Real-time Near-accident Detection in Traffic Video}, abstract = {Camera-based systems are increasingly used for collecting information on intersections and arterials. Unlike loop controllers that can generally be only used for detection and movement of vehicles, cameras can provide rich information about the traffic behavior. Vision-based frameworks for multiple-object detection, object tracking, and near-miss detection have been developed to derive this information. However, much of this work currently addresses processing videos offline. In this article, we propose an integrated two-stream convolutional networks architecture that performs real-time detection, tracking, and near-accident detection of road users in traffic video data. The two-stream model consists of a spatial stream network for object detection and a temporal stream network to leverage motion features for multiple-object tracking. We detect near-accidents by incorporating appearance features and motion features from these two networks. Further, we demonstrate that our approaches can be executed in real-time and at a frame rate that is higher than the video frame rate on a variety of videos collected from fisheye and overhead cameras.}, year = {2020}, journal = {ACM Transactions on Spatial Algorithms and Systems}, volume = {6}, chapter = {1}, pages = {28}, month = {02}, issn = {2374-0353}, url = {https://par.nsf.gov/biblio/10332853}, doi = {10.1145/3373647}, }
