This paper proposed a traffic incident detection system that can report the occurrence of traffic incidents, which occur between detectors. Based on the previously proposed dynamic time warping algorithm [2,3], this incident detection system monitors and assesses changes at upstream and downstream sites. Then, if the upstream-downstream changes are associated with traffic incidents, the system raised an alarm and report CCTV images on site, which are sent to traffic operators to further response. Performance evaluations are conducted using real-world traffic data where it is shown that the incident detection algorithm used in the proposed system achieves 94% detection rate and low false alarm rate. We also show that the proposed incident detection system outperforms a previously proposed incident detection system algorithm [4].
