Abstract

Foggy weather is an important factor affecting highway traffic safety. Research on the automatic recognition method of highway fog visibility from surveillance images can provide technical support for the intelligent management and decision-making of the traffic management department. This paper analyzed multiple physical factors related to fog density based on the atmospheric scattering model and proposed a multi-channel fusion network that integrated these physical factors. Specifically, the method jointly exploited three streams to learn deep visual feature, transmission matrix feature and scene depth feature, and designed an attention fusion module to adaptively fuse these three streams for the final visibility level recognition, which was very beneficial for improving the recognition accuracy. Meanwhile, this paper constructed a synthetic dataset and a real-scene dataset for network parameters learning and performance evaluation. The images in the real-scene dataset were collected from surveillance videos of multiple highways in China. Experiments on these two datasets show that this method can identify visibility level more accurately than existing methods.
