In recent years, vehicle detection and classification have become essential tasks of intelligent transportation systems, and real-time, accurate vehicle detection from image and video data for traffic monitoring remains challenging. The most noteworthy challenges are real-time system operation to accurately locate and classify vehicles in traffic flows and working around total occlusions that hinder vehicle tracking. For real-time traffic monitoring, we present a traffic monitoring approach that overcomes the abovementioned challenges by employing convolutional neural networks that utilize You Only Look Once (YOLO). A real-time traffic monitoring system has been developed, and it has attracted significant attention from traffic management departments. Digitally processing and analyzing these videos in real time is crucial for extracting reliable data on traffic flow. Therefore, this study presents a real-time traffic monitoring system based on a virtual detection zone, Gaussian mixture model (GMM), and YOLO to increase the vehicle counting and classification efficiency. GMM and a virtual detection zone are used for vehicle counting, and YOLO is used to classify vehicles. Moreover, the distance and time traveled by a vehicle are used to estimate the speed of the vehicle.
