TY - JOUR PY - 2015// TI - Overhead LIDAR-based motorcycle counting JO - Transportation letters A1 - Subirats, Peggy A1 - Dupuis, Yohan SP - 114 EP - 117 VL - 7 IS - 2 N2 - In this paper, the authors investigate the problem of detecting and counting motorcycles in real traffic flow with a single layer laser scanner. This work focuses on the use of simple signal processing techniques to achieve a good performance in real time. The reported results outperform state-of-the art results. First, the authors report a 99·2% correct classification rate on 16 min sequence for a three-vehicle class classification problem. Second, the authors achieve a 0·8% counting error rate on 2 h of real traffic.

KEYWORDS: Motorcycle counting, Classification, LIDAR, Road safety, Mobility
