today’s, a common problem in cities is increasing delay and reducing the speed of traffic. on the other wise increasing costs of acquisition in urban area are not allow new routes and highways. also construction of new highway or street such as imam ali highway and sadr highway in tehran lead to develop new applications (such as brt lane ,…) and become quickly saturate and less efficient. there...

This paper presents the details and preliminary results of a saliency-based attention mechanism that is part of an architecture designed to detect and recognise traffic signs from a set of images.

We present an accurate and efficient system for traffic sign recognition in a real-world driving scene video. The proposed system uses local structure features to achieve high, illumination-invariant accuracy in detection and recognition. We exploit a property of traffic signs, namely, shared boundary shapes, to enhance the speed and accuracy of the detection step. A multi-level SVM structure i...

There has been an increasing concern about inactive drivers who would easily lead to road accidents and fatalities once return to driving. This study investigated the re-usability of traffic signs for inactive drivers with consideration of driver factors and cognitive sign features. Fifty-seven Hong Kong Chinese, who possessed a full driving license but had not driven for an extended period, co...

The purpose of this research is development of an algorithm for hardware implementation for number recognition applying in speed traffic-sign recognition system for car driving assistant. We recognize the speed limit of the speed traffic-sign using hardware oriented extraction algorithm. The numbers are recognized by comparing their feature values with the recognized features. The proposed hard...
