Abstract

Deep learning can be applied on vehicle image classification diverse purposes such as real-time vehicle recognition, vehicle license plate character recognition, vehicle logo identification, and vehicle color classification. We categorize electric vehicle model images according to electric vehicle types and classify each image using Convolutional Neural Network for electric vehicle parking and charging system. The suggested model can support optimization problem of charging equipment installation and usage by recognizing the electric vehicle type real-time basis at the entrance of parking or charging system and directing each vehicle where to park and charge as each has different charge method and needs different charging equipment. The model is built using transfer learning, that is, we pre-train the network with large dataset compensating the small amount of main dataset and then fine-tune the network with our electric vehicle type dataset. We perform 10-fold experiments and achieve final test accuracy of 77.6%.
