To address the issue of target vehicle detection failures, we incorporate the Kalman filter algorithm, ensuring precise tracking. Our experimental analysis, which utilizes both target detection and multi-target tracking evaluation indices, demonstrates that the modified YOLOv4 algorithm excels in recall, precision, and average IOU metrics compared to other algorithms, with a mean Average Precision (mAP) of 95.68% and an average detection speed of 0.039 seconds per image, satisfying real-time operational criteria. Vehicle tracking efficacy, compared using the YOLOv4-based detector before and after the modifications, shows significant improvements, indicated by a reduction in Identification Switches (IDS) across all video samples.
