This paper develops a general lane detection method and proposes new techniques for feature extraction and lane modeling. The proposed method first determines a static region of interest. Then, feature extraction is used to establish candidate lane pixels in a binary image. Next, the binary image is transformed to a bird's eye view (BEV) via inverse perspective mapping. After that, a reliable region for the detection of the left or right lane markings is chosen based on the distribution of the candidate lane pixels on the BEV. Finally, a lane model is fitted to the extracted lane pixels. The paper further proposes a new Neighborhood AND operator for feature extraction and uses arc-splines as a lane model. In order to evaluate the quality of the proposed method, the paper performs an extensive comparison using different feature extraction methods and a second-order lane model. The experimental results show that the Neighborhood AND operator for feature extraction and arc-spline lane modeling are superior to the other techniques.

A lane detection algorithm based on reliable lane markings
Yeniaydın, Yasin; Schmidt, Klaus Verner (2018-05-05)
This paper proposes a robust and effective vision-based lane detection approach. First, two binary images are obtained from the region of interest of gray-scale images. The obtained binary images are merged by a novel neighborhood AND operator and then transformed to a bird's eye view (BEV) via inverse perspective mapping. Then, gaussian probability density functions are fit to the left and right regions of a histogram image acquired from the BEV. Finally, a polynomial lane model is estimated from the ident...
Robust Automatic Target Recognition in FLIR imagery
Soyman, Yusuf (2012-04-24)
In this paper, a robust automatic target recognition algorithm in FLIR imagery is proposed. Target is first segmented out from the background using wavelet transform. Segmentation process is accomplished by parametric Gabor wavelet transformation. Invariant features that belong to the target, which is segmented out from the background, are then extracted via moments. Higher-order moments, while providing better quality for identifying the image, are more sensitive to noise. A trade-off study is then perform...

Sekmen, Ali; Parlaktuna, Mustafa; Abdul-Malek, Ayad; Erdemir, Erdem; Koku, Ahmet Buğra (2021-11-01)
This paper introduces two deep convolutional neural network training techniques that lead to more robust feature subspace separation in comparison to traditional training. Assume that dataset has M labels. The first method creates M deep convolutional neural networks called {DCNNi}i=1M" role="presentation">{DCNNi}Mi=1. Each of the networks DCNNi" role="presentation">DCNNi is composed of a convolutional neural network (CNNi" role="presentation">CNNi) and a fully connected neural network (FCNNi" role="pre...
Extended Target Tracking Using Polynomials With Applications to Road-Map Estimation
Lundquist, Christian; Orguner, Umut; Gustafsson, Fredrik (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2011-01-01)
This paper presents an extended target tracking framework which uses polynomials in order to model extended objects in the scene of interest from imagery sensor data. State-space models are proposed for the extended objects which enables the use of Kalman filters in tracking. Different methodologies of designing measurement equations are investigated. A general target tracking algorithm that utilizes a specific data association method for the extended targets is presented. The overall algorithm must always ...
Improving the performance of simulated annealing in structural optimization
Hasançebi, Oğuzhan; Saka, Mehmet Polat (2010-03-01)
This study aims at improving the performance of simulated annealing (SA) search technique in real-size structural optimization applications with practical design considerations. It is noted that a standard SA algorithm usually fails to produce acceptable solutions to such problems associated with its poor convergence characteristics and incongruity with theoretical considerations. In the paper novel approaches are developed and incorporated into the standard SA algorithm to eliminate the observed drawbacks ...
