최근 지능형 차량과 ADAS(Advanced Driver Assistance System) 개발에 있어 차량 영상을 이용한 도로 정보 분석이 중요한 화두로 떠오르고 있다. 다양한 도로 정보 중에서 도로표지판 검출 및 판단은 차량 운행 환경을 파악할 수 있는 중요한 과정이 될 수 있다. 이에 본 논문에서는 차량 영상에서의 색상 정보를 이용하여 표지판의 후보 영역을 추출(Candidate Generation)하고, 후보 영상에 대한 HOG(Histogram of Gradient) 특징 분석을 통해 도로표지판 여부와 그 종류를 판단(Object Classification)하는 알고리즘을 구현하였다. 또한 구현 알고리즘은 실시간 처리가 가능한 속도를 보여주어 지능형 차량 또는 ADAS에서의 실제 적용이 가능하도록 하였다.

This paper presents a road detection technique for spaceborne synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images. Roads are important cartographic features. We incorporate an active contour model called snake as a model for the road and define a new external energy for snake which is appropriate for the road. Detecting roads in spaceborne SAR images is very difficult without other information. In this paper, digital maps are utilized to obtain the initial position and shape for snake. Only approximate geodetic location of roads appearing in SAR images can be known through geocoding process and usual digital maps also have location errors. Therefore, there exist large location offsets between the two data. By introducing initial matching procedure, the errors are reduced significantly. Then we initialize the snake's shape using the roads extracted from digital map and minimize the energies of all snake points to detect roads. We outline two problems in detection and propose a method that mitigates them.

비젼 시스템을 바탕으로 한 무인 주행 시스템은 카메라로부터 입력된 영사에서 도로와 비 도로를 적절히 인식하여 그것을 바탕으로 주행을 위한 여러 장치들을 제어하는 시스템이라 할 수 있다. 한편 이와 같이 영상의 인식 결과가 핸들 제어나 속도 제어의 성능을 결정할 때 무엇보다 도로의 환경 변화에 강건한 비젼 시스템의 구현이 요구된다. 본 논문에서는 비젼 시스템과 핸들 제어 시스템 두 부분을 구현하였는데, 비젼 시스템에서는 입력 영상에 대해 학습이 가능한 Multilayer Perceptron(MLP)을 이용하여 도로와 비 도로를 적절한 신뢰도로 나눈 후 피라미드 알고리즘을 거쳐 최종 도로 영역을 추출해 낸다. 핸들 제어를 위해 도로 영역의 외곽선을 모델링한 후 차량의 주행 방향 벡터를 구한다. 그 값이 핸들 제어 시스템에서의 MLP의 입력이 되어 차량의 핸들 각도를 결정하게 된다. 끝으로 옥외 차량 시뮬레이션을 통하여 본 논문에서 제안된 알고리즘의 유용성을 확인한다.

High-resolution satellite imagery has many benefits, compared to aerial photo in the wide area as well as multi-spectral character. So, it can be used well for constructing GIS data when making digital map. This study analysed the possibilities that road information derived automatically from IKONOS can be used for making ITS system or updating digital map of the urban areas where change frequently and producing satellite image map. In this study, Sobel was applied for road edge dectection after low pass filtering. As the results, it's possible for low pass filtering and high pass filtering to be used as the basic data for ITS construction when extracting edge roads and constructs according to the characteristic of high-resolution satellite imagery.

Update of road facilities database such as road sign, traffic lights, and street lights is interesting business in a local government. Recently, existing road facilities database, aerial photo and topographic map are referred for the installation and complement of road facilities. But it is difficult to comprehend road facilities' condition and additional expenses may appear in field survey. Therefore, it is necessary to establish and update road facility DB and many studies has been carried out to efficiently collect road related spatial data. In this study, the establishment of various complicated road facility DB was conducted by images that had been obtained by digital camera with a built-in bluetooth and DGPS. Results showed that road facility DB was constructed effectively and suggested the possibility of road facility management using images based on coordinate through accuracy analyses using total-station surveying. And using digital camera and DGPS is expected to effective real-time update and management of road facility DB.

The importance of acquisition of road information has recently been increased with a rapid growth of spatial-related services such as urban information system and location based service. This paper proposes an automatic road extraction method using object-based approach which was issued alternative of pixel-based method recently. Firstly, the spatial objects were created by MSRS(Modified Seeded Region Growing) method, and then the key road objects were extracted by using properties of objects such as their shape feature information and adjacency. The omitted road objects were also traced considering spatial correlation between extracted road and their neighboring objects. In the end, the final road region was extracted by connecting discontinuous road sections and improving road surfaces through their geometric properties. To assess the proposed method, quantitative analysis was carried out. From the experiments, the proposed method generally showed high road detection accuracy and had a great potential for the road extraction from high resolution satellite images.

This paper proposes a method for detecting the direction indicator shown in the road surface efficiently from the black box system installed on the vehicle. In the proposed method, the direction indicators are detected by inverse perspective mapping(IPM) and bag of visual features(BOF)-based NN classifier. In order to apply the proposed method to real-time environments, the candidated regions of direction indicator in an image only performs IPM, and BOF-based NN is used for the classification of feature information from direction indicators. The results of applying the proposed method to the road surface direction indicators detection and recognition, the detection accuracy was presented at least about 89%, and the method presents a relatively high detection rate in the various road conditions. Thus it can be seen that the proposed method is applied to safe driving support systems available.
