IEEE Research Paper

This paper proposes a framework to detect road accidents in real-time using generic CCTV cameras installed on roads. The framework focuses on how to achieve high performance on congested roads by introducing a new technique called track-compensated frame interpolation (TCFI) for tracking the vehicles, focuses on achieving higher accuracy by introducing a new approach for crash detection called crash estimation algorithm and focuses on how the system will deal with the massive number of CCTV cameras by dropping footages that are highly unlikely to contain an accident at an early stage and implemented the modules based on the pipelining technique. The framework is formed up of four stages; first, vehicles are detected using YOLO neural network, then tracked for several frames using MOSSE tracker, followed by a filtration process based on a new approach of crash estimation; finally, for every vehicle, we process its tracked footage through ViF descriptor then use the output as a feature vector for an SVM model that classifies accidents. The system achieves 93% accuracy with processing time beats all previous systems.

System Architecture

Framework Architecture

The framework consists of 4 phases; it starts with a vehicle detection phase using YOLO architecture. The second phase is the vehicle tracking using MOSSE tracker. Then the third phase is a new approach we introduce to detect crash based on crash estimation. Finally, we can consider either what remains after the third phase is a crash or start the fourth phase, crash detection using violent flow descriptor.

How to Configure used modules in Project

As the project has different settings there are hyper-parameter you need to configure to use the module you actually want. Go to file called "Constants.py" in "Argus/System/Data/Constants.py"

In Detection Module
  • Work_Detect_Files : True if you want to use already saved vehicles detected in the videos provided in project instead of using YOLO architecture
In Tracking Module
  • Work_Tracker_Type_Mosse : True if you want to use Mosse Tracker instead of Dlib Tracker
  • Work_Tracker_Interpolation : True if you want to use track-compensated frame interpolation (TCFI) instead of normal tracking algorithm
In Crash Module
  • Work_Crash_Estimation_Only : True if you want to use Crash Estimation Module Only, instead of following the Crash Estimation Module with ViF Descripton
