This paper proposes an algorithm to detect the stop line and crosswalk on the road surface using edge information and blob coloring. The detection has been considered as an important area of autonomous vehicle technologies. The proposed algorithm is composed of three phases: 1) hypothesis generation of stop lines, 2) hypothesis generation of crosswalks, and 3) hypothesis verification of stop lines. The last two phases are not performed if the first phase does not provide a hypothesis of a stop line. The last one is carried out by the combination of both hypotheses of stop lines and crosswalks, and determines the stop lines among stop line hypotheses. The proposed algorithm is proven to be effective through experiments with various images captured on the roads.

This paper presents an Around View Monitoring (AVM) stop-line detection based longitudinal position correction algorithm for automated driving on urban roads. Poor positioning accuracy of low-cost GPS has many problems for precise path tracking. Therefore, this study aims to improve the longitudinal positioning accuracy of low-cost GPS. The algorithm has three main processes. The first process is a stop-line detection. In this process, the stop-line is detected using Hough Transform from the AVM camera. The second process is a map matching. In the map matching process, to find the corrected vehicle position, the detected line is matched to the stop-line of the HD map using the Iterative Closest Point (ICP) method. Third, longitudinal position of low-cost GPS is updated using a corrected vehicle position with Kalman Filter. The proposed algorithm is implemented in the Robot Operating System (ROS) environment and verified on the actual urban road driving data. Compared to low-cost GPS only, Test results show the longitudinal localization performance was improved.

Platform Screen Door(PSD) has been installed in train manual operation section(ATS/ATC) by SeoulMetro since 2005. PSDs are now operating at 17 stations in SeoulMetro lines. As a result, it increases the safety of passenger, makes a comfortable platform and saves the energy of air conditioning. For PSD operation, train shall stop within 600mm of the train stop reference point. In train manual operation section, the detection system of train position is required to notify the train driver of train position and to ensure the condition that train stops the correct position for PSD operation. To detect the train stop position, the optical sensor shall be installed at platform. However, in case of SeoulMetro lines, the detection criterions of the train correct position stop are different because of using various types of trains which have different size and shape of front cars. In this paper, to solve this problem, the precise detection algorithm of the train stop at the correct position is used, and Laser distance measure sensor is introduced to notify the distance form the reference point of the train correct stop to train driver. This system has been applying to Seoul Metro line total.

본 논문에서는 교차로 내에 위험의 원인이 되는 정지 객체를 검지하는 방법을 제안한다. 교차로 내에 설치된 CCTV에서 실시간 영상을 입력받아 객체의 크기를 일정하게 하기 위하여 역원근변환을 수행하였다. 원근변환된 영상에서 검지영역을 설정하고 객체의 이동 정보를 이용한 적응적인 배경영상을 생성하였다. 정지한 객체의 검출은 배경영상 차이법을 사용하여 정지한 객체의 후보 영역을 검출하였다. 검출된 후보 영역의 진위 여부를 파악하기 위하여 영상의 기울기 정보와 EHD(Edge Histogram Descriptor)를 이용하는 방법을 제안한다. 제안한 알고리즘의 성능을 알아보기 위하여 교차로에 설치된 DVR을 통해 출퇴근 시간 및 주간 대의 영상을 저장하여 실험하였다. 실험 결과 교차로 내의 검지영역 내에 정지한 차량을 효율적으로 감지할 수 있었으며 검지영역의 면적에 따라 초당 13~18프레임의 처리속도를 나타내어 실시간 처리에 문제가 없을 것으로 판단된다.

In this paper, we propose a real-time recognition algorithm of lanes, stop lines and speed bumps on roads for autonomous vehicles. First, we generate a top-view using the image transmitted from a camera that is installed to see the front of a vehicle. To speed up the processing, we simplify the mapping algorithm in constructing a top-view wherein the region of interest (ROI) is concerned. The features of lanes, stop lines and speed bumps, which are composed of lines, are searched in the edge image of the top-view, then followed by labeling and clustering specialized to detect straight lines. The width of lines, distances from the center of a vehicle, and curvature of each cluster are considered to select final candidates. We verify the proposed algorithm on real roads using the commercial car (KIA K7) which is converted into an autonomous vehicle.

This paper presents a robust lane detection algorithm based on RGB color and shape information during autonomous car control in realtime. For realtime control, our algorithm increases its processing speed by employing minimal elements. Our algorithm extracts yellow and white pixels by computing the average and standard deviation values calculated from specific regions, and constructs elements based on the extracted pixels. By clustering elements, our algorithm finds the yellow center and white stop lanes on the road. Our algorithm is insensitive to the environment change and its processing speed is realtime-executable. Experimental results demonstrate the feasibility of our algorithm.

Out of all metal-cutting process, the hole-making process is the most widely used. It is estimated to be more than 30% of the total metal-cutting process. It is therefore desirable to monitor and detect drill wear during the hole-drilling process. One important aspect in controlling the drilling process is monitoring drill wear status. There are two systems, Basic system and Online system, to detect the drill wear. Basic system comprised of spindle rotational speed, feed rates, thrust torque and flank wear measured by tool microscope. Outline system comprised of spindle rotational speed feed rates, AE signal, flank wear area measured by computer vision, On-line monitoring system does not need to stop the process to inspect drill wear. Backpropagation neural networks (BPNs) were used for on-line detection of drill wear. The output was the drill wear state which was either usable or failure. This paper deals with an on-line drill wear monitoring system to fit the detection of the abnormal tool state.

In this paper, a detection method of a pedestrian safety road marking was proposed. The proposed algorithm uses laser range and reflectivity of a range finder (LRF). For a detection of crosswalk marking and stop line, the DFT (Discrete Fourier Transform) of reflectivity and cross-correlation method between the reference replica and the measured reflectivity are used. A speed bump is detected through measuring an altitude difference of two LRFs which have the different tilted angle. Furthermore, we proposed a velocity constrained a detection method of a speed bump. Finally, the proposed methods are tested in on-line, on the pavement of a road. The considered road markings are wholly detected. The localization errors of both road markings are smaller than 0.4 meter.

서울시에서 실시간 신호제어를 위해 개발하였던 COSMOS 시스템은 도로의 교통상황을 판단하여 신호운영을 시행하도록 설계되었다. 하지만 COSMOS 시스템에서 사용하고 있는 정지선 검지기나 대기길이 검지기의 경우 도로의 과포화상황을 정확하게 판단하지 못해 신호운영의 효율성이 떨어지는 문제점이 발생하고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 기존의 정지선 검지기, 대기길이 검지기 체계에서 벗어나 서울시 법인택시 GPS 데이터를 가공하여 통행속도를 산출하였으며 또한 본 연구와 같이 진행한 "GPS 데이터를 이용한 대기행렬 길이 산출에 관한 연구"에서 산출한 대기행렬 길이를 기반으로 도로의 혼잡상황 판단 알고리즘을 수립하였다. 이를 도로의 혼잡상황이 지속적으로 나타나는 국기원 입구 ${\rightarrow}$ 강남역 사거리, 역삼역 사거리 ${\rightarrow}$ 국기원 입구로 구성된 실제 네트워크에 적용하여 실제 교통상황을 반영하고 있는지를 확인해 보았다.
