Popis: In this paper, a method for the extraction and recognition of road markings (lines, numerals, characters, symbols, arrows, etc.) from a road scene image is proposed. At first, the input image is segmented to regions using outlines. After considering the conditions of the road structure, those regions are partially rejoined, and then the road region can be extracted. After the road region is transformed into a plane image by perspective transformation, the road markings can be extracted. Using projection profile pattern matching between the extracted road markings and the standard patterns is practiced and the road markings are recognized. As the experimental result, practical recognition performance can be obtained.
