Description

A kind of method for traffic sign detection based on center-border link model
Technical field
The invention belongs to image procossing and technical field of computer vision, in particular to a kind of detection side of traffic sign Method.
Background technique
Road traffic sign detection is an important research direction in computer vision.As road safety affiliated facility, hand over Logical mark specification traffic behavior, instruction condition of road surface, ensure road effect, guidance pedestrian and in terms of play weight It acts on.As the key technology of intelligent transportation system, road traffic sign detection is automatic Pilot, auxiliary drives and traffic sign dimension The indispensable component parts of systems such as shield.
Road traffic sign detection is color or shape feature using traffic sign by the traffic sign region detection in image And split, detection directly affects the precision of subsequent traffic sign classification whether accurate.
Method for traffic sign detection is broadly divided into two kinds: the method based on color characteristic and the side based on shape feature Method.Method for traffic sign detection based on color characteristic is that rule of thumb threshold value or other colors are special in specific color space Sign divides the image into traffic sign region and non-traffic sign region.This method should be readily appreciated that and realize, can rapidly exclude Background area.However, colouring information is easy to be influenced by extraneous factor, such as color degradation, shade and the light of traffic sign itself It will cause declining to a great extent for detection accuracy according to variation.Therefore, reality is individually unable to satisfy using the testing result of color characteristic The requirement of application.Method for traffic sign detection based on shape is in regular polygon using traffic sign mostly characterized by edge Characteristic, convert the detection of traffic sign to detection (such as Gonz á lez of regular polygonGarrido M A,Llorca D F,et al.Automatic traffic signs and panels inspection system using computer vision[J].IEEE Transactions on Intelligent Transportation Systems,2011,12(2): 485-499.)。
Generalized Hough Transform (Generalized Hough transformation, GHT) ([2] Davies E R.Machine Vision:Theory,Algorithms,Practicalities(Third Edition).San Francisco:Elsevier, 2005.387-410) using the geometrical property of polygon, by the test problems of variable space figure It is converted into the clustering problem of parameter space, realizes the direct detection of polygon.Its main feature is that it is simple direct, but due to calculation amount Greatly, generally it is only applicable to the less polygon detecting of the number of edges such as triangle.
The method that the propositions such as Barnes detect circle using radial symmetry transform, the method is expanded to octagon, square later Shape and triangle (BARNES N, ZELINSKY A.Real-time radial symmetry for speed sign detection[J].Intelligent Vehicles Symposium,2004,566-571).This method is using symmetrical Marginal point to its radial symmetric central projection, can be bright in being centrally formed for circular traffic sign after the projection of all marginal points Maximum projection centre is spent, thus can determine the specific location of traffic sign.Radial symmetry transform is a kind of univariate conversion, Each marginal point is individually voted to multiple accumulators independently of its neighborhood, and which results in higher false alarm rates.
Above method is substantially all based on the polygon detecting method of projection, and Barnes etc. is proposed based on posterior probability Regular polygon detection method (Barnes N, Loy G, Shaw D.The regular polygon detector [J] .Pattern Recognition,2010,43(3):592-602).This method extracts edge image first, then according to polygon The geometrical characteristic of shape, the probability density function that polygon is defined using posterior probability.Compared to projecting method, this method has higher Verification and measurement ratio and lower false alarm rate, however this method is more demanding to edge quality, detects in the incomplete situation in edge Effect decline is very fast.
Based on the above analysis, effectively traffic sign can be detected there is no a kind of method at present, the present inventor This case is exactly researched and developed under this research background.

(31) edge image for seeking image to be detected calculates the gradient at edge;
(32) by the gradient direction range of pixel (- π, π] be uniformly divided into 36 subsets, the range of each subset is π/18, is found Gradient direction meets the point of rotational symmetry condition;
(33) its center of rotational symmetry is found for meeting each pair of point of step (32) conditional, if pkAnd ptIt is two symmetrical Marginal point, center of rotational symmetry p obtains by following formula:
In formula, (xk,yk) it is point pkCoordinate, γ is pk, ptLine and trunnion axis between angle, β is p, pkLine and pt, pkThe angle of line, r are pkOr ptTo the distance of center of rotational symmetry p point;
(34) point for meeting step (32) conditional is projected to its center of rotational symmetry, and more point of winning the vote is bright in perspective view It spends bigger;
(35) position that projection centre and subpoint are recorded in projection process calculates the dimensional information of polygon using following formula S:
Wherein, Γ (p) indicates the point pair that the oriented p of institute is projected, quantity M, | | pkpt| | indicate point to pkAnd ptThe distance between.
5. a kind of method for traffic sign detection based on center-border link model as described in claim 1, it is characterised in that The detailed content of the step (4) is:
(41) multiple projection centres are formed in image to be detected using rotational symmetry projecting method, in several most projections of getting tickets For the heart as the potential center of polygon, the corresponding point set that projects is possible boundary point;
(42) for one of projection centre ow, remember that the point set projected to it is E={ ew}={ dwww;1 < w < Ne }, wherein ne is to owThe points of projection;For each of E point ew, calculate it and belong to the general of i-th of polygon connection Rate:
Wherein, s indicates the dimensional information of polygon, liIndicate i-th of connection of polygon;udAnd σdCentered on arrive boundary point The mean value and variance of the Gaussian Profile of distance d, uθAnd kθ、uαAnd kαIt is the angle theta and boundary point of connection and horizontal direction respectively Gradient direction α Von Mises distribution mean value and variance, wherein subscript i indicate correspond to i-th connection;dw、θw、αw For projection centre owTo point ewConnection triple indicate;
(43) the maximum point of matching probability is the corresponding boundary point of i-th of connection, is denoted as ei *, then the polygon that eventually detects The shape being made of n boundary point, i.e. e (ow)={ e1 *,e2 *,…,en *,
(44) respectively with circle, octagon, squares and triangles center-border link model, detect a certain projection centre Corresponding boundary point, calculates the matching score of every kind of polygon model and boundary point, and the polygon of highest scoring is to be detected The type of polygon.
