Abstract
The present application discloses a vehicle searching method and device, which can perform the steps of: calculating an appearance similarity distance between a first image of a target vehicle and several second images containing the searched vehicle; selecting several images from the several second images as several third images; obtaining corresponding license plate features of license plate areas in the first image and each of the third images with a preset Siamese neural network model; calculating a license plate feature similarity distance between the first image and each of the third images according to license plate feature; calculating a visual similarity distance between the first image and each of the third images according to the appearance similarity distance and the license plate feature similarity distance; obtaining a the first search result of the target vehicle by arranging the several third images in an ascending order of the visual similarity distances. The solution provided by the present application is not limited by application scenes, and it also improves vehicle searching speed and accuracy while reducing requirements of hardware such as cameras that collect images of a vehicle and auxiliary devices.
