TITLE Real-Time Tunnel Accident Detection and Tracking Using YOLOv5
ABSTRACT Real-Time Tunnel Accident Detection and Tracking Using YOLOv5 is an intelligent traffic monitoring system designed to automatically detect vehicle collisions in tunnel environments using computer vision and deep learning techniques. Traditional tunnel monitoring depends on continuous human observation, which may lead to delayed responses and missed incidents. To overcome this limitation, the system uses the YOLOv5 object detection model to identify vehicles in each frame of recorded tunnel traffic videos. The detected vehicles are then tracked using the DeepSORT tracking algorithm, which assigns unique IDs and follows each vehicle across frames. The tracking information such as frame number, object ID, and bounding box coordinates is stored for further analysis. A collision detection module analyzes vehicle interactions by calculating distance, velocity, and overlap between bounding boxes to determine possible accidents. When a collision is detected, the system highlights it in the output video and records the accident details in a log file. This automated approach reduces manual monitoring and improves traffic safety by identifying accidents efficiently. The final output includes a processed video showing detected collisions along with stored accident information for future analysis.
