Abstract

To improve the safety capabilities of expressway service stations, this study proposes a method for detecting dangerous goods vehicles based on surveillance videos. The information collection devices used in this method are the surveillance cameras that already exist in service stations, which allows for the automatic detection and position recognition of dangerous goods vehicles without changing the installation of the monitoring equipment. The process of this method is as follows. First, we draw an aerial view image of the service station to use as the background model. Then, we use inverse perspective mapping to process each surveillance video and stitch these videos with the background model to build an aerial view surveillance model of the service station. Next, we use a convolutional neural network to detect dangerous goods vehicles from the original images. Finally, we mark the detection result in the aerial view surveillance model and then use that model to monitor the service station in real time. Experiments show that our aerial view surveillance model can achieve the real-time detection of dangerous goods vehicles in the main areas of the service station, thereby effectively reducing the workload of the monitoring personnel.
