Abstract

Traffic sign detection and recognition is a core phase of Driver Assistance and Monitoring System. This paper focuses on the development of an intelligent driver assistance system there by achieving road safty. In this paper a novel system is proposed to detect and classify traffic signs such as warning and compulsory signs even for occluded and angular tilt images using Support Vector Machines. Exhaustive experiments are performed in order to demonstrate the efficiency of proposed method.
