Parking spaces modelling for inter spaces occlusion handling

Abstract

Intelligent systems for vacant parking spaces detection present an important solution to facilitate finding an available parking place for the drivers. Many real world challenges can face these vision based systems like weather conditions and luminance variation. In this paper, we are interested in the problem of inter spaces occlusion, where one or more place of a parking can be hidden by another parked vehicle. In order to overcome this problem we propose a new on-street surface based model for parking model extraction and we perform vehicle tracking in order to detect the events of "Entering" and "Leaving" of a car to a parking place
