Abstract :
A novel method to detect vehicles is presented in the paper. Firstly, hypothesis of the vehicle is formed according to the geometrical features of the rear of the vehicle by the statistical histogram. Secondly, hypothesis is verified by the property of the shadow cast by the car according to a prior acknowledgement of traffic scene. Lastly, the vehicle detection is realized by hypothesis and verification of objects. The experimental results show the efficiency and feasibility of the method.
