Abstract :
This paper describes a machine vision system that is able to match vehicles based on their color and shape (edge) attributes. The matching results enable the authors to estimate the travel time between two points on a road network. The system was tested on real video data that was collected in Michigan. The authors show that the travel time estimates obtained by their vision system are comparable to results that were obtained by a manual review of the video tapes.
