Abstract: Support vector machine (SVM) qualified on histogram orientation gradients (HOG) features is a genuine standard across many visual awareness responsibilities. Due to the change in the illumination and scene complexity, moving vehicle detection has become one of the very important components. Therefore, in this paper, a HOG feature descriptor is proposed. HOG features are not perceptive to illumination change and performance is better in characterising object shape and appearance. A feature vector is built by combining all the HOG features, which are required to train a linear SVM classifier for classification of vehicles.

Keywords: classification; HOG features; machine learning; SVM classifier; vehicle detection.
