Diseño e implementación de una solución para el conteo de vehículos a partir de imágenes terrestres.

Abstract

The present work proposes the development of an algorithm that allows the identification, recognition and counting of vehicles from a fixed image that can come from a camera or from a cell phone camera, through the digital processing of the acquired images in the urban area of the city of Loja-Ecuador. To achieve the main objective, the state of the art was performed in order to know the algorithms that are already implemented and from which it can be set to fit the local need taking into account that one of the challenges in the detection is the amount of variations of the environment. The algorithm will be implemented in the MATLAB program, which will be tested with the images acquired within the urban area of the city of Loja taking into account the different variations of the climate and light of day. In the end, the results of the implemented algorithm and possible future improvements will be described.
