碩士 === 國立交通大學 === 電機與控制工程系 === 89 === This thesis is mainly about image tracking techniques based on active contour model, and its application in traffic parameter estimation. The thesis introduces a algorithm of image measurement developed from active contour model to image to get the vehicle location. Further coordinating with Kalman Filter to tracking the vehicle location, traffic parameters like speed and numbers of vehicles would be thus acquired. The thesis utilizes the concept of contour growing to design an initializing tracking mechanism in order to solve the problems that could have occurred during the initialization of the tracking process. V8 visual images of traffic will be used to get the result of image tracking.
