Popis: This paper introduces an adaptive method for detecting front vehicles under complex weather conditions. In the field of vehicle detection from images extracted by cameras installed in vehicles, backgrounds with complicated weather, such as rainy and snowy days, increase the difficulty of target detection. In order to improve the accuracy and robustness of vehicle detection in front of driverless cars, a cascade vehicle detection method combining multifeature fusion and convolutional neural network (CNN) is proposed in this paper. Firstly, local binary patterns, Haar-like and orientation gradient histogram features from the front vehicle are extracted, then principal-component-analysis dimension reduction and serial-fusion processing are performed on the input image. Furthermore, a preliminary screening is conducted as the input of a support vector machine classifier based on the acquired fusion features, and the CNN model is employed to validate cascade detection of the filtered results. Finally, an integrated data set extracted from BDD, Udacity, and other data sets is utilized to test the method proposed. The recall rate is 98.69%, which is better than the traditional feature algorithm, and the recall rate of 97.32% in a complex driving environment indicates that the algorithm possesses good robustness.
