The purpose of this paper is to develop automatic incident detection algorithm using image based detector in freeway management system. This algorithm was developed by using neutral network for high speed roadway and by using speed and occupancy variable for low speed roadway. The image detector system with the developed automatic incident detection algorithm can detect multi-lane as well as several detect areas for each lane. To evaluate this system, field tests to measure the detecting rate of incidents were performed with other systems which have APID and DES algorithm at high speed roadway(freeway) and low speed roadway(national arterial). As the results of field test, it found that the detect rate of this system was highest rate comparing to other two systems.

Inductive Loop Detector(ILD) has been commonly used in collecting traffic data such as occupancy time and non-occupancy time. From the data, the traffic volume and type of passing vehicle is calculated. To provide reliable data for traffic control and plan, accuracy is required in type recognition which can be utilized to determine split of traffic signal and to provide forecasting data of queue-length for over-saturation control. In this research, a new recognition model issuggested for recognizing typeof vehicle from thecollected data obtained through ILD systems. Two clustering methods, based on statistical algorithms, and one neural network clustering method were employed to test the reliability and occuracy for the methods. In a series of experiments, it was found that the new model can greatly enhance the reliability and accuracy of type recongition rate, much higher than conventional approa-ches. The model modifies the neural network clustering method and enhances the recongition accuracy by iteratively applying the algorithm until no more unclustered data remains.
