Problems to be solved by the invention
[0004]
　In Patent Document 1, the travel time acquired by the probe car and the traffic volume, which is the result of a survey by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism, are used for calculating the amount of congestion loss. Therefore, with the technique described in Patent Document 1, it is impossible to calculate the amount of congestion loss on a road on which a probe car is not traveling. Even if the probe car travels on the road for which the congestion loss amount is calculated, it is difficult to accurately evaluate the road because the number of samples of the acquired data depends on the number of probe cars. Is. Furthermore, since the traffic volume used for the congestion loss amount is the result of a survey by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism, it is impossible to calculate the congestion loss amount for roads for which there is no survey result. Therefore, the system described in Patent Document 1 is not a system that is sufficiently useful for road administration.

Mode for carrying out the invention
[0011]

　Prior to the detailed explanation of the embodiment, the outline of the embodiment will be described. FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing an example of the configuration of the information processing apparatus 1 according to the outline of the embodiment. As shown in FIG. 1, the information processing device 1 includes a camera image acquisition unit 2, an analysis unit 3, and a disadvantage calculation unit 4.
[0012]
　The camera image acquisition unit 2 acquires image data from a camera (not shown in FIG. 1) that continuously captures a traffic condition on a predetermined road. The camera image acquisition unit 2 acquires the image data transmitted by the camera via, for example, a wired or wireless network, but the image data stored in the storage medium may be read out and acquired. As described above, the camera image acquisition unit 2 only needs to be able to acquire the image data, and the acquisition method is arbitrary. In this way, since the camera image acquisition unit 2 acquires the image data from the camera that continuously captures the traffic state of the predetermined road, the image data acquired by the camera image acquisition unit 2 is continuous on the predetermined road. It is an observation result. It should be noted that such a camera is, for example, a camera continuously installed around the road to be photographed.
[0013]
　The analysis unit 3 generates statistical information on road traffic from the video data acquired by the camera image acquisition unit 2. The analysis unit 3 performs image analysis processing on the video data, for example, and generates predetermined types of statistical information such as vehicle speed and traffic volume. The statistical information generated by the analysis unit 3 may be any statistical information about road traffic that can be generated from the video data acquired by the camera image acquisition unit 2, and the type is not limited.
[0014]
　The disadvantage calculation unit 4 calculates the amount of disadvantage caused by the traffic congestion of the road by using the statistical information generated by the analysis unit 3. The disadvantage referred to here may be any disadvantage caused by traffic congestion on the road, and the type is not limited. For example, the disadvantage may be an economic loss or an environmental disadvantage such as carbon dioxide. The magnitude of the amount of disadvantage caused by road congestion can be used as a basis for determining the need for improvement of transportation infrastructure such as widening of the road. Therefore, by having the disadvantage calculation unit 4 calculate the amount of disadvantage more accurately, it can be expected that the necessity of improving the transportation infrastructure can be determined more accurately.
[0015]
　As described above, the information processing apparatus 1 calculates the amount of disadvantage due to traffic congestion on the predetermined road based on the statistical information generated from the continuous observation results of the predetermined road. That is, according to the information processing device 1, the influence of traffic congestion can be calculated based on statistical information that accurately reflects the traffic condition of the predetermined road. Therefore, it can be calculated more accurately than the calculation based on the information obtained by the probe car or the like. That is, according to the information processing device 1, more useful information regarding the improvement of the transportation infrastructure can be created.
[0016]

　Next, the details of the embodiment will be described. FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing an example of the configuration of the information processing system 10 of the embodiment. As shown in FIG. 2, the information processing system 10 includes a server 100 and a plurality of cameras 200. The server 100 is a device corresponding to the information processing device 1 in FIG.
[0017]
　Each of the cameras 200 is a camera that continuously captures the traffic condition of a predetermined road. In the present embodiment, as an example, each camera 200 is installed so as to photograph the traffic condition at each intersection of the road, but the object of photographing by the camera 200 is not limited to the intersection. For example, the camera 200 may be installed to capture the traffic condition at an arbitrary point between intersections. The camera 200 is continuously installed around the object to be imaged so that the predetermined place can be continuously observed. The camera 200 transmits the captured video data to the server 100 via a wired or wireless network.
[0018]
　As shown in FIG. 2, the server 100 includes a camera image acquisition unit 101, an analysis unit 102, an economic loss calculation unit 103, an emission amount calculation unit 104, a cost acquisition unit 105, a determination unit 106, and an output unit. It has 107 and.
[0019]
　The camera image acquisition unit 101 corresponds to the camera image acquisition unit 2 in FIG. 1 and acquires image data from the camera 200. In the present embodiment, the camera image acquisition unit 101 acquires image data from each of the cameras 200 via the network.
[0020]
　The analysis unit 102 corresponds to the analysis unit 3 of FIG. 1, and generates statistical information on road traffic from the video data acquired by the camera image acquisition unit 101 by image analysis processing. In the present embodiment, the analysis unit 102 generates statistical information such as the speed of a vehicle traveling on the road, the number of vehicles traveling on the road (that is, the traffic volume), the waiting time, and the congestion time. The waiting time is the time required to pass through a predetermined section on the road, which is captured by the camera image. The traffic jam time means the length of time during which the traffic jam occurs. The analysis unit 102 generates statistical information for video data of a predetermined statistical acquisition period (for example, one year), for example.
[0021]
　The analysis unit 102 generates these statistical information by recognizing each vehicle from the video data and analyzing the change in the time-series position of each recognized vehicle, for example. More specifically, for example, the analysis unit 102 analyzes the respective speeds of the vehicles detected by the video data of the predetermined measurement time (for example, 10 minutes) and calculates the average of these, so that the vehicle during this period can be calculated. Calculate the average speed of. Further, the analysis unit 102 analyzes the number of vehicles detected by the video data of the predetermined measurement time, and calculates the number of vehicles (that is, the traffic volume) during this period. Further, the analysis unit 102 analyzes the time required to pass the predetermined road section for each of the vehicles detected by the video data of the predetermined measurement time, and calculates the average of these to wait time. Is calculated. In addition, the analysis unit 102 detects the occurrence of traffic congestion from the video data. In this case, specifically, for example, the analysis unit 102 determines that congestion has occurred when the calculated average speed is equal to or less than a predetermined threshold value (for example, 20 km / h). .. In the following description, this threshold value for determining the occurrence of congestion is referred to as the congestion speed. Then, the analysis unit 102 sets the length of time in the traffic state where it is determined that the traffic jam has occurred as the traffic jam time. In addition, the analysis unit 102 may generate statistical information indicating a time zone in which traffic congestion occurs.
[0022]
　The analysis unit 102 may perform these statistical information for each lane of the road. The analysis method by the analysis unit 102 described above is only an example, and the analysis unit 102 may generate each statistical information by any other method.
[0023]
　Further, the analysis unit 102 may further generate statistical information about the type of vehicle traveling on the road from the video data acquired by the camera image acquisition unit 101. For example, the analysis unit 102 generates statistical information about the type of vehicle by recognizing the type of vehicle traveling on the road from the video data by pattern matching or the like. For example, the analysis unit 102 generates statistical information of the vehicle type detected in the video data at the predetermined measurement time. The analysis unit 102 is not limited to this, and may generate statistical information of the vehicle type by any other method.
[0024]
　Further, the analysis unit 102 may further generate statistical information about the number of passengers of the vehicle traveling on the road from the video data acquired by the camera image acquisition unit 101. For example, the analysis unit 102 may count the number of passengers by recognizing the number of people in the vehicle from the video data, or may count the number of passengers based on the recognition result of the vehicle type. When counting the number of passengers by recognizing the type of vehicle, for example, the estimated number of passengers for each type of vehicle is preset. The analysis unit 102 may calculate the total number of passengers of all the vehicles detected by the video data at the predetermined measurement time, or may calculate the average number of passengers. The analysis unit 102 is not limited to these, and may generate statistical information on the number of passengers by any other method.
[0025]
　The economic loss calculation unit 103 and the emission amount calculation unit 104 correspond to the disadvantage calculation unit 4 in FIG. The economic loss calculation unit 103 calculates the amount of economic loss caused by traffic congestion using the statistical information generated by the analysis unit 102. Further, the emission amount calculation unit 104 calculates the emission amount of a predetermined component of the exhaust gas emitted from the vehicle due to the traffic congestion of the road by using the statistical information generated by the analysis unit 102. That is, the discharge amount calculation unit 104 calculates the amount of a predetermined component that is excessively discharged due to the traffic jam. In the present embodiment, specifically, this predetermined component is carbon dioxide, but it may be another harmful component contained in the exhaust gas.
[0026]
　Hereinafter, specific examples of calculation by the economic loss calculation unit 103 and the emission amount calculation unit 104 will be described. FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram showing a series of traffic jam sections. In FIG. 3, P 1 , P 2 , ..., P n-1 , and P n are monitoring locations (that is, measurement points) by the camera 200, respectively, and the analysis unit determines that congestion has occurred. This is the location determined by 102. That is, the average speed of the above-mentioned vehicle obtained from the video data for the measurement point Pi (however, 1 ≦ i ≦ n) is equal to or less than the congestion speed. Further, P 1 , P 2 , ..., P n-1 , P n are continuous measurement points on the road. Note that P 1 , P 2 , ..., P n-1 , P n are, for example, intersections, but are not limited thereto.
[0027]
　Here, as shown in FIG. 3, the section defined by the measurement points Pi and Pi + 1 is defined as Pi, i + 1 . Further, the interval P i, i + 1 a distance K of i and. The distance Ki is a known distance because it is a distance determined according to the installation location of the camera 200.
[0028]
　In order to explain a specific calculation example in the economic loss calculation unit 103 and the emission amount calculation unit 104, the following variables are further defined.
　S i : Measurement Point P i mean velocity in, i.e., obtained by treatment with the analysis unit 102, the average speed of the vehicle detected by the image data of a predetermined measurement time
　Q i : Measurement Point P i traffic in, i.e., Number of vehicles detected by video data of a predetermined measurement time obtained by processing by the analysis unit 102
　JR: Number of passengers per vehicle
　CO 2 : Emission of carbon dioxide per unit time emitted from one vehicle Amount
　JT: Time of
　congestion JS: Congestion speed (for example, 20 km / h)
　M: Preset labor unit price
[0029]
　In the present embodiment, the economic loss calculation unit 103, as an example, has an economic loss based on the loss time due to traffic congestion, the number of vehicles that have generated the loss time, the number of passengers in the vehicle, and the labor unit price. Calculate the amount Z 1 . Specifically, the economic loss calculation unit 103 calculates the economic loss amount Z 1 by, for example, the following formula (1) .
[0030]
[Number 1]

[0031]
　In the formula (1), T loss represents the loss time. Loss time T loss the interval P i, i + 1 of length K i and the movement time when moving at speed in a traffic jam, which is the difference between the travel time in the case of moving the distance jam rate JS. That is, the loss time T loss indicates the travel time that is additionally required due to the traffic jam. Specifically, the loss time T loss is expressed by, for example, the following equation (2).
[0032]
[Number 2]

[0033]
　In the formula (2), the speed of the vehicle traveling in the section Pi, i + 1 during the traffic jam is represented by Si , i + 1 . Here, S i, i + 1 , for example, P i P obtained from the video data i from P i + 1 average speed S of the direction of the vehicle toward the i and P i + 1 P obtained from the video data i from P i + 1 toward the It is represented by the average speed of the vehicle in the direction, Si + 1 . That is, S i and i + 1 are expressed, for example, as shown in the following equation (3).
[0034]
[Number 3]

[0035]
　In the formula (2), the congestion speed JS is used as the reference speed used in the calculation of the loss time, but instead of the JS, another predetermined speed such as the legal speed of the road may be used.
[0036]
　Further, in the equation (1), N is the number of vehicles traveling in the sections Pi and i + 1 , and corresponds to the number of vehicles causing the loss time. N is, for example, P i P obtained from the video data i P from i + 1 direction of the vehicle of the number Q towards i and P i + 1 P obtained from the video data i from P i + 1 in a direction toward the number of vehicles Q i + 1 It is represented by the average of. That is, N is expressed, for example, as shown in the following equation (4).
[0037]
[Number 4]

[0038]
　As shown in the equation (1), the economic loss calculation unit 103 multiplies the loss time T loss , the number of vehicles N, the number of passengers JR, and the labor unit price M by a predetermined statistical acquisition period (for example, one year). Accumulate for each astringent time zone JT. Further, the economic loss calculation unit 103 further integrates the integration result for a series of congestion sections, that is, P 1 , 2 , P 2 , 3 , ... P n-1, n . As a result, the economic loss amount Z 1 is calculated.
[0039]
　The economic loss calculation unit 103 may use a preset average value as the passenger JR in the formula (1), but in the present embodiment, the statistics of the passengers obtained by the analysis by the analysis unit 102. Information can be used. In this case, the economic loss calculation unit 103 can use, for example, the value of the average number of passengers obtained by the analysis process of the analysis unit 102 as the JR value of the equation (1). Incidentally, economic loss calculation unit 103, economic losses Z 1 when calculating the may be used the values of total ride personnel obtained by the analysis process of the analysis section 102. In this case, the economic loss calculation unit 103 can use the value of the total number of passengers instead of N × JR in the equation (1).
　In this way, the economic loss calculation unit 103 may calculate the economic loss amount by using the statistical information about the number of passengers obtained from the video data of the camera 200. By doing so, the amount of economic loss can be calculated more accurately than when a predetermined value is used as the value of the number of passengers.
[0040]
　The economic loss calculation unit 103 may calculate the economic loss amount for each lane or for each traveling direction. This makes it possible to evaluate the effect of traffic congestion for each lane or each direction of travel.
[0041]
　Next, the emission amount calculation unit 104 will be described. In the present embodiment, the emission amount calculation unit 104, as an example, is based on the loss time due to the traffic jam, the number of vehicles that generated the loss time, and the amount of carbon dioxide emitted from the vehicle, due to the traffic jam. The amount of extra carbon dioxide emitted (carbon dioxide emission) Z 2 is calculated. Specifically, the emission amount calculation unit 104 calculates the carbon dioxide emission amount Z 2 by, for example, the following formula (5) .
[0042]
[Number 5]

[0043]
　As shown in the equation (5), the emission amount calculation unit 104 multiplies the loss time T loss , the number of units N, and the emission amount CO 2 by multiplying the result by each astringency of a predetermined statistical acquisition period (for example, one year). Accumulate for time zone JT. Further, the emission amount calculation unit 104 further integrates the integration result for a series of congestion sections, that is, P 1 , 2 , P 2 , 3 , ... P n-1, n . As a result, the carbon dioxide emission amount Z 2 is calculated.
[0044]
　The emission amount calculation unit 104 may use a preset average value as the emission amount CO 2 in the equation (5) , but in the present embodiment, the type of vehicle obtained by the analysis by the analysis unit 102. Emissions according to the statistical information about can be used. Specifically, for example, the value of the average emission amount calculated from the ratio of each type of vehicle obtained by the analysis by the analysis unit 102 and the carbon dioxide emission amount preset for each type of vehicle is expressed by the formula ( It can be used as the value of CO 2 in 5) . When calculating the carbon dioxide emission amount Z 2 , the emission amount calculation unit 104 integrates the carbon dioxide emission amount preset for each type for each vehicle whose type is specified by the analysis process of the analysis unit 102. The integrated value obtained may be used. In this case, the emission amount calculation unit 104 can use this integrated value instead of N × CO 2 in the equation (5) .
　In this way, the emission amount calculation unit 104 may calculate the emission amount of a predetermined component by using the statistical information about the type of the vehicle obtained from the video data of the camera 200. By doing so, the amount of a predetermined component that is excessively discharged due to traffic congestion is calculated more accurately than when a uniform predetermined value is used as the amount of emission from one vehicle regardless of the type of vehicle. can do.
[0045]
　The emission amount calculation unit 104 may calculate the carbon dioxide emission amount for each lane or for each traveling direction. This makes it possible to evaluate the effect of traffic congestion for each lane or each direction of travel.
[0046]
　The cost acquisition unit 105 provides information (hereinafter referred to as cost information) indicating the cost required for improving the transportation infrastructure for eliminating the road congestion for which the disadvantage has been calculated by the economic loss calculation unit 103 and the emission amount calculation unit 104. get. Cost information is information about any cost required to improve the transportation infrastructure related to the road. The cost information may be, for example, the number of improvements required to eliminate the congestion, or the cost required for the improvements.
[0047]
　The cost acquisition unit 105 may, for example, read and acquire the cost information stored in the storage medium, or may acquire the cost information transmitted by another device via a wired or wireless network. As described above, the cost acquisition unit 105 only needs to be able to acquire the cost information, and the acquisition method is arbitrary. Further, the cost information acquired by the cost acquisition unit 105 may be information input by the user, analyzes the cause of the congestion based on the video data of the camera 200, and outputs information on the countermeasures against the congestion according to the analysis result. It may be the information output from the software to be used.
[0048]
　The determination unit 106 determines the necessity of improving the transportation infrastructure related to the road for which the disadvantage has been calculated by the economic loss calculation unit 103 and the emission amount calculation unit 104. That is, the determination unit 106 determines the necessity of improving the transportation infrastructure in order to eliminate the congestion on the road. Specifically, the determination unit 106 determines the necessity of improving the transportation infrastructure based on the calculation results of the economic loss calculation unit 103 and the emission amount calculation unit 104. For example, when the economic loss amount calculated by the economic loss calculation unit 103 or the emission amount calculated by the emission amount calculation unit 104 exceeds a predetermined threshold value, it may be determined that the transportation infrastructure needs to be improved.
[0049]
　Further, the determination unit 106 may determine the necessity of improving the transportation infrastructure based on other information in addition to the calculation results by the economic loss calculation unit 103 and the emission amount calculation unit 104. The other information may be, for example, statistical information generated by the analysis unit 102. Specifically, the statistical information used as other information may be at least one of the congestion time of the road, the speed of the vehicle traveling on the road, or the waiting time of the vehicle at the intersection of the road. good. Further, the above-mentioned other information may be the current number of lanes of the road, or may be the cost information acquired by the cost acquisition unit 105. The information indicating the number of lanes may be extracted by image analysis by the analysis unit 102, or may be information input by the user.
[0050]
　For example, the determination unit 106 may determine as follows using these evaluation items. The determination method shown below is only an example, and the determination unit 106 may make a determination by another determination method using the above evaluation items.
　The determination unit 106 may weight each evaluation item and calculate the score for each road for which the disadvantage is calculated by the economic loss calculation unit 103 and the emission amount calculation unit 104. That is, the determination unit 106 calculates a score, which is an index value indicating the high need for improvement of the traffic infrastructure of the road, by calculating the evaluation value of the evaluation item and the weighted sum of the predetermined importance. May be good.
[0051]
　The evaluation values ​​of each evaluation item have the following effects on the determination of the necessity of improving the transportation infrastructure, for example. The larger the values ​​of economic loss, carbon dioxide emissions, congestion time, and waiting time, the greater the need for improvement of transportation infrastructure. Regarding the number of lanes, it is considered that the more lanes there are, the more important the road is. Therefore, the more lanes there are, the greater the need for improving the transportation infrastructure. As for speed and cost, the smaller the value, the greater the need for improvement of transportation infrastructure. It should be noted that not all of these evaluation items may be used, and the determination unit 106 may be determined only by a part of the evaluation items.
[0052]
　Then, when the score exceeds a predetermined threshold value, the determination unit 106 may determine that the transportation infrastructure needs to be improved. Further, the determination unit 106 may prioritize by sorting the roads in need of improvement of the transportation infrastructure in the order of scores.
[0053]
　The output unit 107 outputs the determination result by the determination unit 106. The output unit 107 may be displayed on a display as an output, or may be transmitted to another device. The output unit 107 may output not only the determination result by the determination unit 106 but also other information such as the information generated by the analysis unit 102.
