Image-Based Traffic Anomaly Detection Using Deep Learning Models
摘要
Traffic anomaly detection is essential for road safety and efficient traffic management. This study presents a customized traffic anomaly dataset with images from web scraping and real-time captures between Palakollu and Bhimavaram, Andhra Pradesh. It classifies images into “Anomaly” (e.g., crashes, potholes) and “No Anomaly” (clear roads). We evaluate four deep learning models MobileNetV2, InceptionV3, DenseNet201, and VGG16 for anomaly detection. The results provide insights for improving real-time traffic monitoring, road safety, and automated traffic management. The models are evaluated by different evaluation parameters. MobileNetV2, and InceptionV3 report a superior accuracy of 94% than rest two models. Moreover, MobileNetV2 exhibits a balanced performance for both anomaly and no-anomaly cases.
