An Intelligent Detection System Based Road Traffic Sign Recognition

Abstract

AbstractTraffic sign detection and recognition systems provide an additional level of driver assistance,leading to improved safety for passengers, road users and vehicles. The automatic road-signsrecognition is an important part of driver assisting systems which helps driver to increase safety anddriving comfort. In this paper we proposed an efficient system for the detection and recognition ofthe road sign in the road and acquiring the traffic scene images from a fixed source.The road signrecognition system is divided into two parts, the first part is detection stage which is used to detectthe signs from a whole image by using the shape filtering method, and the second part is therecognition stage where the traffic sign obtained is analyzed then the names and directions of citiesare extracted using the artificial neural network (ANN).The system accuracy more than 90%.
