Description

Technical Field

[0002] Traffic flow detection refers to the process of evaluating traffic flow and congestion by monitoring the number, speed, density, direction of movement and other parameters of vehicles on the road. Traffic flow detection is of great significance in traffic management and urban planning. Through traffic flow detection, traffic flow information at different time periods and locations on the road can be obtained, thereby helping traffic planners and designers understand the use of roads. This helps to optimize the traffic network, road layout and signal light settings, and improve the traffic efficiency and safety of roads. Traffic flow detection can help identify the location and degree of traffic congestion. Based on this information, the traffic management department can take corresponding measures, such as adjusting the timing of signal lights, increasing lane capacity, guiding traffic flow, etc., to alleviate congestion and improve traffic flow. The road traffic flow detection equipment of the present invention can intelligently identify the types of vehicles on a certain road, and then count the traffic flow information of this road in a certain time period. ResNet50 is a very powerful deep learning model. Its depth and residual learning methods enable it to learn more complex features, thereby improving its accuracy. Its global average pooling layer can reduce the number of parameters of the model, thereby reducing the risk of overfitting.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0009] Figure 1 This is a workflow diagram of a road vehicle flow detection device based on a ResNet-50 convolutional neural network of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0010] The present invention will be further described in detail below through specific implementation modes in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0011] The present invention provides a production line product temperature detection device based on ResNet-50 and thermal imaging technology, step 1: using an image acquisition device to shoot a road that needs to be detected for vehicle flow; step 2: preprocessing the video image information shot by the image acquisition device; step 3: using an artificial intelligence algorithm to intelligently identify the cars in the shot videos and photos; step 4: performing vehicle flow statistics and analysis based on the number of detected vehicles.

[0012] Each step is described in detail below.

[0013] Step 1: Use image acquisition equipment to photograph the road where traffic flow detection is required;

[0014] The image acquisition device is used to capture images or videos of roads that need to be monitored for traffic flow, and transmit the videos to a data processing center, thereby obtaining the traffic flow information of the road through intelligent recognition.

[0015] Step 2: Preprocess the video image information captured by the image acquisition device;

[0016] The purpose of the preprocessing is to improve the quality of the image, reduce noise, and extract useful features and information for subsequent intelligent vehicle identification. The image preprocessing steps include image denoising, grayscale, image enhancement, and image smoothing. Image denoising will remove noise from the image and make the image clearer. Grayscale converts color images into grayscale images, simplifies the image processing process, reduces the amount of calculation, and extracts texture and structural information from the image. Image enhancement will adjust the brightness, contrast, and color balance parameters of the image to improve the visual quality of the image. Image smoothing will reduce noise and details in the image and make the contour and structure of the image smoother.

[0017] Step 3: Intelligently identify cars in the captured videos and photos through artificial intelligence algorithms

[0018] The artificial intelligence algorithm of the present invention is a ResNet-50 convolutional neural network model. This model is combined with the pre-processed image information obtained after step 2 and the training results of the model to achieve the purpose of identifying vehicles on the road.

[0019] Step 4: Perform traffic flow statistics and analysis based on the number of detected vehicles.

[0020] The traffic flow statistics analysis of the present invention counts the number of vehicles passing through the road identified in step 3 during a certain period of time. In step 4, the number of vehicles is counted and analyzed to monitor the number, speed, and movement direction of vehicles on the road, and further evaluate the traffic flow and congestion conditions.

[0021] The above content is a further detailed description of the present invention in combination with specific preferred implementation modes. It cannot be determined that the specific implementation of the present invention is limited to these descriptions. For ordinary technicians in the technical field to which the present invention belongs, several simple deductions or substitutions can be made without departing from the concept of the present invention, which should be regarded as belonging to the protection scope of the present invention.
