A Survey of Traffic Sign Recognition Systems Based on Convolutional Neural Networks
Syed Shujaa Hussain, Munther Abualkibash, Samir Tout · 2018
In this paper, we briefly discuss the applications of Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) model to traffic sign recognition (TSR) systems. Traditionally, the TSRs have used different techniques to detect and classify visual data. The CNN s have been used separately to extract features and train the classifier as well as simultaneously for detection and classification tasks. One model that has been successful is the Fast Branch CNN model, which imitates biological mechanisms to become more efficient. While it is not the most accurate of the ones presented in this paper, the efficiency it exhibits under time-sensitive conditions is worth exploring because of the potential applications of such technology. The Fast Branch CNN model challenged the assumptions of past models, and this technology can only advance further if new models attempt to do the same.
