Abstract
Traffic light recognition is one of the important tasks in the studies of intelligent transport system. In this paper, a robust traffic light recognition model based on vision information is introduced for on-vehicle camera applications. Our contribution mainly includes three aspects. First, in order to reduce computational redundancy, the aspect ratio, area, location, and context of traffic lights are utilized as prior information, which establishes a task model for traffic light recognition. Second, in order to improve the accuracy, we propose a series of improved methods based on an aggregate channel feature method, including modifying the channel feature for each types of traffic light and establishing a structure of fusion detectors. Third, we introduce a method of inter-frame information analysis, utilizing detection information of previous frame to modify original proposal regions, which makes the accuracy further improved. In the comparison of other traffic light detection algorithms, our model achieves competitive results on the complex scene VIVA data set. Furthermore, an analysis of small target luminous object detection tasks is given.
