Traffic Sign Detection and Recognition

In this chapter, we formulated the problem of traffic sign recognition in two stages namely detection and classification. The detection stage is responsible for locating regions of image containing traffic signs and the classification stage is responsible for finding class of traffic signs. Related work in the field of traffic sign detection and classification is also reviewed. We mentioned several methods based on hand-crafted features and then introduced the idea behind feature learning. Then, we explained some of the works based on convolutional neural networks.
