Abstract

Traffic incident detection plays an important role for a broad range of intelligent transport systems and applications such as driver- assistant, accident warning, and traffic data analysis. The primary goal of traffic incident detection systems in real-world is to identify traffic violations happening on the road in real-time. Although research community has made a significant attempt for detecting on-road violations, there are still challenges such as poor performance under real-world circumstances and real-time detection. In this paper, we propose a novel method which utilizes the powerful deep convolutional neural networks for vehicle recognition task to detect traffic events on the separate lane. Experimental results on real-world dataset videos as well as live stream in real-time from digital cameras demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed method for identifying incidents under various conditions of urban roads and highways.
