in recent years due to improvements of technology within automobile industry, design process of advanced driver assistance systems for collision avoidance and traffic management has been investigated in both academics and industrial levels. detection of traffic signs is an effective method to reach the mentioned aims. in this paper a new intelligent driver assistance system based on traffic sig...

automatic road extraction from aerial images can be very helpful in traffic control and vehicle guidance systems. most of the road detection approaches are based on image segmentation algorithms. color-based segmentation is very sensitive to light changes and consequently the change of weather condition affects the recognition rate of road detection systems. in order to reduce the light change ...

in synthetic aperture radar (sar) imagery, ship-sea contrast can be significantly improved when the polarimetric information is used, compared with information from a single channel sar. the constant false alarm rate (cfar) detection algorithm based on the alpha-stable (as) distribution model is a descent method for ship detection in sea. the most important step in this method is the parameter ...
