Abstract

The invention relates to a road vanishing point detection method, in particular to a road vanishing point detection method based on video images, and belongs to the field of road detection. The problems that an existing detection method is high in error rate, a traditional voting algorithm is complex, most of time is consumed by the voting algorithm, and the calculation quantity is large when the multi-scale and multi-direction characteristics of Gabor wavelets are used for extracting textural features are solved. The road vanishing point detection method is characterized by including the steps that a frame of image data are input and converted into a gray level image, and fast Fourier transform is carried out; the textural response range is calculated based on a Gabor filter; the main direction of image textures is calculated; the number of votes of particles is calculated; the range of particle distribution is adjusted; a dynamic observation model for vanishing points is set up; particle filtering is performed, and the vanishing points are output. The road vanishing point detection method can be applied to computer vision systems including an autonomous navigation system of an intelligent walking robot or a pilotless automobile and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for detecting a road vanishing point, in particular to a method for detecting a road vanishing point based on a video image, and belongs to the field of road detection. Background technique [0002] Roads can be divided into structured roads and unstructured roads. Structured roads have relatively clear road markings and outline edges, and the road color is quite different from the surrounding environment. In comparison, unstructured roads are often not paved with cement or asphalt, and lack obvious road marking lines and boundaries. At the same time, the color of the road is often not significantly different from the surrounding background, such as muddy roads, snow or deserts, etc., making unstructured The reliable detection of roads has become a difficult point. In recent years, researchers at home and abroad have proposed a variety of vanishing point detection algorithms. However, due to the interference of strong ...
