Complicated traffic scenarios, including random change of vehicles’ speed and lane, as well as the simultaneous presence of multiple vehicles on bridge, are main obstacles that prevents bridge weigh-in-motion (BWIM) technique from reliable and accurate application. To tackle the complicated traffic problems of BWIM, this paper develops a novel BWIM method which integrates deep-learning-based computer vision technique and bridge influence surface theory. In this study, bridge strains and traffic videos are recorded synchronously as the data source of BWIM. The computer vision technique is employed to detect and track vehicles and corresponding axles from traffic videos so that spatio-temporal paths of vehicle loads on the bridge can be obtained. Then a novel method is proposed to identify the strain influence surface (SIS) of the bridge structure based on the time-synchronized strain signals and vehicle paths. After the SIS is identified, the axle weight (AW) and gross vehicle weight (GVW) can be identified by integrating the SIS, time-synchronized bridge strain, and vehicle paths. For illustration and verification, the proposed method is applied to identify AW and GVW in scale model experiments, in which the vehicle-bridge system is designed with high fidelity, and various complicated traffic scenarios are simulated. Results confirm that the proposed method contributes to improve the existing BWIM technique with respect to complicated traffic scenarios.

YOLO Based Social Distancing Violation Detection. Covid 19 can be prevented if few norms are followed properly. Social distancing is one of the important norms to stop spreading COVID-19. Advanced Computer Vision technique can be implemented to identified if few persons are maintaining social distance or not. This can be used to spread awareness.

In this chapter, we investigated computer vision technique for facial expression recognition, which increase both - the recognition rate and computational efficiency. Local and global appearance-based features are combined in order to incorporate precise local texture and global shapes. We proposed Multi-Level Haar (MLH) feature based system, which is simple and fast in computation. The driving factors behind using the Haar were its two interesting properties - signal compression and energy preservation. To depict the importance of facial geometry, we first segmented the facial components like eyebrows, eye, and mouth, and then applied feature extraction on these facial components only. Experiments are conducted on three well known publicly available expression datasets CK, JAFFE, TFEID and in-house WESFED dataset. The performance is measured against various template matching and machine learning classifiers. We achieved highest recognition rate for proposed operator with Discriminant Analysis Classifier. We studied the performance of proposed approach in several scenarios like expression recognition from low resolution, recognition from small training sample space, recognition in the presence of noise and so forth.
