- Abstract:
-
To improve the accuracy and real-time performance of traffic signs recognition, a convolutional neural network (CNN)-based image clustering algorithm is proposed for fast recognition of traffic signs. First, The image clustering algorithm was used to optimize the original dataset; second, the overall quality of the dataset was further improved through various image preprocessing operations; finally, a nine-layer CNN structure was constructed. The CNN model was eventually obtained after several sample trainings, and an image was inputted into the CNN model for automatic recognition. The validity of the algorithm was proved based on the German traffic sign recognition benchmark (GTSRB) and Belgium traffic sign dataset (BTSD). The recognition time of a single picture was only 0.2 s, and the recognition accuracy was higher than 98.5%. The results confirm fast recognition and high accuracy rate of the proposed algorithm. It provides theoretical basis and technical support for the reliability and security of intelligent vehicle driving.
