Abstract: A model for automatic vehicle type classification and counting based on deep learning is proposed to handle complex traffic scene. This model covers of parts, vehicle detection model and vehicle detection and classification and counting model. Faster R-CNN method is implemented in vehicle detection model to extract vehicle images from an image with disorder background which may contains numerousvehicles. In vehicle classification model, an image contains only one vehicle is fed into a CNN model to produce a feature, then a Non negative matrix factorization is used to implement the classification process. Experiments show that vehicle’s detection and classification from traffic scenes can be recognized effectively by using our method. Furthermore, in order to build a large scale database easier, this paper comes up with a novel network collaborative annotation mechanism using iterative refinement in region proposal network.
