AI Technical Summary
Existing visibility calculation methods have low accuracy under factors such as seasonal changes, light intensity, and scene changes, resulting in model instability and making it difficult to achieve high-precision monitoring in low visibility conditions.
A visibility calculation method based on video image gradient factor and dark channel is adopted. By obtaining the sum of the dark channel and brightness image gradients of multiple images, the gradient ratio is calculated. The visibility is determined by combining the prior visibility with the gradient ratio.
Under different lighting and scene conditions, the model accuracy is improved, the visibility calculation results are stable, and the error is controlled within ±20%, making it suitable for actual traffic management.
