Distributed and collaborative real-time vehicle detection and classification over the video streams

摘要

Traffic surveillance cameras are widely used in traffic management and information systems. Processing streaming media in real time is resource and time-consuming processes and even impossible to realize in most real-world applications. To overcome the performance problems in such applications, this article introduces a middleware system based on pub/sub messaging protocol and a dispatcher to preprocess the streams in real time. Experimental results show that proposed middleware may be utilized in different areas such as infrastructure planning, traffic management, and prevention of traffic offenses.
