Including traffic light recognition in general object detection with YOLOv2

With an in vehicle camera many different things can be done that are essential for ADAS or autonomous driving mode in a vehicle. First, it can be used for detection of general objects, for example cars, cyclists or pedestrians. Secondly, the camera can be used for traffic light recognition, which is localization of traffic light position and...

High-Speed Object Detection: Design, Study and Implementation of a Detection Framework using Channel Features and Boosting

In this thesis we design, implement and study a high-speed object detection framework. Our baseline detector uses integral channel features as object representation and AdaBoost as supervised learning algorithm. We suggest the implementation of two approximation techniques for speeding up the baseline detector and show their effectiveness by...
