Towards Efficient Risky Driving Detection: A Benchmark and a Semi-Supervised Model

Risky driving is a major factor in traffic incidents, necessitating constant monitoring and prevention through Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS). Despite recent progress, a lack of suitable data for detecting risky driving in traffic surveillance settings remains a significant challenge. To address this issue, Bayonet-Drivers, a pioneering benchmark for risky driving detection, is proposed. The unique challenge posed by Bayonet-Drivers arises from the nature of the original data obtained from intelligent monitoring and recording systems, rather than in-vehicle cameras. Bayonet-Drivers encompasses a broad spectrum of challenging scenarios, thereby enhancing the resilience and generalizability of algorithms for detecting risky driving. Further, to address the scarcity of labeled data without compromising detection accuracy, a novel semi-supervised network architecture, named DGMB-Net, is proposed. Within DGMB-Net, an enhanced semi-supervised method founded on a teacher-student model is introduced, aiming at bypassing the time-consuming and labor-intensive tasks associated with data labeling. Additionally, DGMB-Net has engineered an Adaptive Perceptual Learning (APL) Module and a Hierarchical Feature Pyramid Network (HFPN) to amplify spatial perception capabilities and amalgamate features at varying scales and levels, thus boosting detection precision. Extensive experiments on widely utilized datasets, including the State Farm dataset and Bayonet-Drivers, demonstrated the remarkable performance of the proposed DGMB-Net.

Interactive spatio-temporal feature learning network for video foreground detection

Video foreground detection (VFD), as one of the basic pre-processing tasks, is very essential for subsequent target tracking and recognition. However, due to the interference of shadow, dynamic background, and camera jitter, constructing a suitable detection network is still challenging. Recently, convolution neural networks have proved its reliability in many fields with their powerful feature extraction ability. Therefore, an interactive spatio-temporal feature learning network (ISFLN) for VFD is proposed in this paper. First, we obtain the deep and shallow spatio-temporal information of two paths with multi-level and multi-scale. The deep feature is conducive to enhancing feature identification capabilities, while the shallow feature is dedicated to fine boundary segmentation. Specifically, an interactive multi-scale feature extraction module (IMFEM) is designed to facilitate the information transmission between different types of features. Then, a multi-level feature enhancement module (MFEM), which provides precise object knowledge for decoder, is proposed to guide the coding information of each layer by the fusion spatio-temporal difference characteristic. Experimental results on LASIESTA, CDnet2014, INO, and AICD datasets demonstrate that the proposed ISFLN is more effective than the existing advanced methods.
