Abstract
To realize rural road detection in complication environment, a method based on improved FCM (Fuzzy C-Means) and Hough transformation has been proposed. Firstly, the road image is transformed from RGB space into HIS space. Second, the initial clustering center is determined using climbing method looking for image saturation histogram peak in HIS color space and the road area is detected using improved FCM. Finally, after morphological image processing, road boundary is detected using Hough transformation. Experimental results show that the method presented in this paper has good ability to detect the road boundary. The method is robust and not influenced by shadow, water vestige, rainy days and other environmental factors.
