An intelligent vision-based vehicle detection and tracking system for automotive applications

In this paper, we present an intelligent vision-based on-road preceding vehicle detection and tracking system based on computer vision techniques. Pre-processing video stabilization is adopted to improve system reliability and stability. High performance detection is achieved via the machine learning-based method. Our framework is favored for various automotive applications, which yields above 90% detection rate in long range and 99.1% tracking successful rate in middle range.
