Abstract: An online vehicle classification method based on decision tree model is proposed, in which multi-functional magnetic sensors are used to collect field magnetic data. First, eight speed-independent time-domain waveform features are extracted as the inputs of the decision tree model. Then the decision tree model is trained based on the Classification and Regression Tree (CART) algorithm with the Minimum Number of Slit-samples (MNS). Finally the trained decision tree model is pruned with a Minimum Error Pruning (MEP) role to obtain an optimal pruning tree, which is more robust to new samples. For the field samples collected from a road in Beijing with two types of vehicles, the average classification accuracies of the forward and reverse tests are 88.9% and 94.4% respectively. The proposed classification method is compared with existing methods. The results show that the proposed method enables online vehicle type classification with the advantages of high classification accuracy, sample robustness and less algorithm execution time.
