This paper describes a method for detecting and recognizing road signs in grey-level images acquired by a single camera mounted on a moving vehicle. An extensive experimentation has shown that the method is robust against low-level noise corrupting edge detection and contour following, and works for images of cluttered urban streets as well as country roads and highways. A further improvement on the detection and recognition scheme has been obtained by means of a Kalman-filter-based temporal integration of the extracted information. The proposed approach can be very helpful for the development of a system for driving assistance.

Abstract
This paper describes a method for detecting and recognizing road signs in grey-level images acquired by a single camera mounted on a moving vehicle. An extensive experimentation has shown that the method is robust against low-level noise corrupting edge detection and contour following, and works for images of cluttered urban streets as well as country roads and highways. A further improvement on the detection and recognition scheme has been obtained by means of a Kalman-filter-based temporal integration of the extracted information. The proposed approach can be very helpful for the development of a system for driving assistance.File in questo prodotto:
