Image Processing Approaches to Traffic Situation Understanding, Risk Assessment, and Safety

This project will explore several potential applications of image processing, including NN/deep learning technologies, to the analysis of traffic scenes involving passenger and transit vehicles. The project team outlines three potential applications below- the exact distribution of effort and topics addressed will depend on the availability of student and research staff. (1) Traffic scene risk assessment and driver behavior understanding (2) Methodologies for extracting information from transit vehicle video for traffic flow estimation (3) Optical flow for automated vehicle lane following
