본 논문에서는 실제 도로 환경에서의 실시간 차선 인식 방법을 제안한다. 전방주시카메라를 활용하여 촬영한 입력영상으로부터 도로영역에 해당하는 관심영역을 추출하고 반복적인 평균 명도를 측정하여 이진화함으로써 차선 특징을 검출하고 YCbCr 변환한 영상에 대한 실험 임계값을 적용하여 중앙선의 특징을 검출하였다. 이에 Canny 알고리즘을 이용한 에지 추출로 허프 변환시의 작업량을 최소화하였으며 허프 변환하여 얻은 차선 후보군으로부터 각도를 기반으로 필터링하여 통계적으로 우선순위가 높은 선분을 차선으로 인식하였다. 또한 실제 도로 환경에서 수집한 동영상으로 실험한 결과 강건한 차선 인식률을 보였다.

Deep-learning-based image segmentation is one of the most widely employed lane detection approaches, and it requires a post-process for extracting the key points on the lanes. A general approach for key-point extraction is using a fixed threshold defined by a user. However, finding the best threshold is a manual process requiring much effort, and the best one can differ depending on the target data set (or an image). We propose a novel key-point extraction algorithm that automatically adapts to the target image without any manual threshold setting. In our adaptive key-point extraction algorithm, we propose a line-level normalization method to distinguish the lane region from the background clearly. Then, we extract a representative key point for each lane at a line (row of an image) using a kernel density estimation. To check the benefits of our approach, we applied our method to two lane-detection data sets, including TuSimple and CULane. As a result, our method achieved up to 1.80%p and 17.27% better results than using a fixed threshold in the perspectives of accuracy and distance error between the ground truth key-point and the predicted point.

In this paper, we propose the method and system which determines the condition for safe and unsafe lane changing. To determine the condition, first, the system sets up the Region of Interest(ROI) on the neighboring lane. Second, a dangerous vehicle is extracted during the line changing. Third, the condition is determined to wm or not by calculating the moving direction, relative distance md relative velocity. To set up the ROI, the only one side lane is detected and the interested region is expanded. Using the coordinate transformation method, the accuracy of the ROI raised. To correctly extract the vehicle on the neighboring lane, the Adaptive Background Update method and Image Segmentation method which uses the feature of the travelling road are used. The object which is extracted by the dangerous vehicle is calculated the relative distance, the relative velocity and the moving average. And then in order to ring, the direction of the vehicle and the condition for safe and unsafe is determined. As minimizes the interested region and uses the feature of the travelling road, the computational quantity is reduced and the accuracy is raised and a stable result on a travelling road images which demands a high speed calculation is showed.

In this paper we propose the method which extracts lane using the grouped block snake algorithm. In the proposed algorithm, input image is divided into $8\times{8}$ blocks and then noise-included blocks are removed by a probability-based method. And also, we use hough transform to separate lane from the background image and suggest a grouped block snake method to detect road lane blocks. The proposed method reduces computational complexity and removes the noise in a more effective way compared to the pixel-based snake method.

In this paper, we propose a novel method for real-time lane detection that is robust for inclined roads and not require a camera parameter, the Inverse Perspective Transform of the image, and the proposed lane filter. After finding the vanishing point from the start frame of the image and storing the region surrounding the vanishing point as the Template Area(TA), our method predict the lanes by scanning toward the lower part from the vanishing point of the image and obtain the image removed the perspective effect using the Inverse Perspective Transform coefficients extracted based on the predicted lanes. To robustly determine lanes on inclined roads, the region surrounding the vanishing point is set up as the template area (TA), and, by recalculating the vanishing point by tracing the area similar to the TA (SA) in the input image through template matching, it responds to the changes on the road conditions. The proposed method for a more robust lane detection method for inclined roads is a lane detection method by applying a lane detection filter on an image removed of the perspective effect. Through this method, the processing region is reduced and the processing procedure is simplified to produce a satisfactory lane detection result of about 40 frames per second.

This paper presents an algorithm, aims at practical applications, for the high speed processing and performance enhancement of lane detection base on vision processing system. As a preprocessing for high speed lane detection, the vanishing line estimation and the optimal extraction of region of interest for lane boundary (ROI-LB) can be processed to reduction of detection region in which high speed processing is enabled. Image feature information is extracted only in the ROI-LB. Road lane is extracted using a non-parametric model fitting and Hough transform within the ROI-LB. With simultaneous processing of noise reduction and edge enhancement using the Laplacian filter, the reliability of feature extraction can be increased for various road lane patterns. Since outliers of edge at each block can be removed with clustering of edge orientation for each block within the ROI-LB, the performance of lane detection can be greatly improved. The various real road experimental results are presented to evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

To detect obstacles and lane-markers for driving vehicles, a new moving window scheme where moving windows are assigned to an image frame captured by a camera is addressed. For the detection of obstacles, it is important to estimate lane-markers precisely and rapidly. For this purpose, selecting some partes of an image frame at the expected lane locations, i.e., selecting window are generally adopted for extracting lane-markers efficiently. In this paper, a new scheme that extracts lane-markers precisely by assigning variable size windows at the expected locations of lane-markers considering the road curvature and finally detects obstacles within a driving lane is proposed. The accuracy improvement using this moving window scheme is showed by comparing to the conventional fixed window method and to using radar to laser sensors.
