An innovative traffic flow detection model based on temporal video frame analysis and grayscale aggregation quantification

Abstract Current traffic status detection methods heavily rely on historical traffic flow data and vehicle counts. However, these methods often fail to meet the stringent real‐time requirements of state detection, especially on edge devices with limited computing resources.To address these challenge...

description Abstract Current traffic status detection methods heavily rely on historical traffic flow data and vehicle counts. However, these methods often fail to meet the stringent real‐time requirements of state detection, especially on edge devices with limited computing resources.To address these challenges, this study develops a traffic alert model using temporal video frame analysis and grayscale aggregation quantization techniques. Initially, the model uses distance mapping between pixel features and frames of road traffic videos to construct a comprehensive road environment and vehicle segmentation model. The model also establishes a mapping between pixel equidistant lines and actual distances, enabling precise congestion detection. This approach significantly reduces costs associated with traditional traffic detection methods as it does not rely on historical data. Performance evaluation using fixed‐point road monitoring data indicates that the proposed model outperforms traditional traffic state detection models, with a performance improvement of approximately 4.7% to 9.5%. Additionally, the model improves computing resource efficiency by approximately 72.5% and demonstrates substantial real‐time detection capabilities.
