Motion and haar-like features based vehicle detection

Lienhart et al. have added basic and rotated haar-like features in the face detection scheme based on a boosted cascade of simple feature classifiers. There are two key contributions in the paper. The first is introduction of motion features. With the haar-like and motion features, our sample vehicle detector shows off on average a 5% lower false alarm rate at a given hit rate. Considering the speed performance, motion features are used to given the candidate regions and haar-like features are used to detect the vehicles at the above results. Secondly, the haar-like features are used for the highway except face. In the face detection, Haar-like feature shows detection rate comparable to the best previous system. But little work is done in the traffic domain. And empirical analysis of vehicle detection is provided in the experiment section
