The aim of the paper was to analyze effective solutions for accurate lane detection on the roads. We focused on effective detection of airport runways and taxiways in order to drive a light-measurement trailer correctly. Three techniques for video-based line extracting were used for specific detection of environment conditions: (i) line detection using edge detection, Scharr mask and Hough transform, (ii) finding the optimal path using the hyperbola fitting line detection algorithm based on edge detection and (iii) detection of horizontal markings using image segmentation in the HSV color space. The developed solutions were tuned and tested with the use of embedded devices such as Raspberry Pi 4B or NVIDIA Jetson Nano.

In recent years, due to the increasing density of traffic every year, it is been a hassle for drivers in metropolitan cities to maintain lane and speeds on road. The drivers usually waste time and effort in idling their cars to maintain in traffic conditions. The drivers get easily frustrated when they tried to maintain the path because of the havoc created. Transportation Institute found that the odds of a crash(or near crash) more than doubled when the driver took his or her eyes off the road formore than two seconds. This tends to cause about 23% of accidents when not following their lane paths. In worst case the fuel economy often drops and tends to cause increase in pollution about 28% to 36% per vehicle annually. This corresponds to the wastage of fuel. Owing to this problem, we proposed an ingenious method by which the lane detection can be made affordable and applicable to existing automobiles. The proposed prototype of lane detection is carried over with a temporary autonomous bot which is interfaced with Raspberry pi processor, loaded with the lane detection algorithm. This prototype bot is made to get live video which is then processed by the algorithm. Also, the preliminary setups are carried over in such a way that it is easily implemented and accessible at low cost with better efficiency, providing a better impact on future automobiles.

Since the 1990s, the rising key issue of the automobile industry is self-driving or driverless vehicles. Apparently, one of the most important challenges for smart self-driving cars comprises lane-detecting and lane-tracking capability to ensure safety and also decrease vehicle accidents for driver assistance systems. Since road lane detection is one of the most challenging tasks, driverless vehicles must learn to observe the road from a visual perspective in order to achieve automatic driving. Most of the research Works done so far can only detect the lanes or vehicles separately. However, in this paper, we propose a method to combine lane information and vehicle/obstacle information that can support the driver assistance system, driver warning system or the lane change assistant system so that it enhances the quality of results. For the lane changing system, the system detects or tracks the lane lines and detects the vehicles on all sides of a test vehicle. In lane detection, line detection algorithms such as the Canny Edge detection algorithm are used to detect the lane edges. Kalman filter will be used to track the vehicle detected from the vehicle detection algorithm. For vehicle detection, we use Otsu’s thresholding, horizontal edge filtering and vertical edge. The vertical edge filter and the Otsu’s thresholding are used to detect the vehicles on all sides of the test vehicles, then the horizontal edge is used to verify the vehicles detected.

This paper proposes a novel algorithm of edge detection using LUV color space. Firstly, according to peer group filtering (PGF), a nonlinear algorithm for image smoothing and impulse noise removal in color image is used. Secondly, color image edges in an image are obtained automatically by combining an improved isotropic edge detector and a fast entropy threshold technique. Thirdly, according to color distance between the pixel and its eight neighbor-pixels, color image edges can further be detected. Finally, the experiment demonstrates the outcome of proposed algorithm in color image edge detection.

This paper presents a building detection approach based on HSV color space. The method is based on the gray level histogram features, which can separate the housing construction units from complex background. A building damage detection algorithm based on regional statistical information is also proposed in this paper, and a set of performance parameters of feature vector is studied to identify the extent of the housing collapse. The experiments on Haiti post-earthquake images from Google Earth and Yushu post-earthquake images from Internet are discussed in the paper. The experimental results show that proposed approach is effective and feasible.

A Robert operator edge detection algorithm based on Bidimensional Empirical Mode Decomposition (BEMD) to detect medical liquid opacity is proposed. This method can effectively resolve the problem that traditional Robert operator edge detection can be easily effected by noise, and it also has certain effects on restraining external environment influence. The simulation results show that, compare with traditional medical liquid opacity detection methods, the proposed method could achieve higher detection accuracy, and has a certain theory and application value.

Document images are more popular in today’s world and being made available over the internet for Information retrieval. The document images becomes a difficult task compared with digital texts and edge detection is an important task in the document image retrieval, edge detection indicates to the process of finding sharp discontinuation of characters in the document images. The single edge detection methods causing the weak gradient and edge missing problems adopts the method of combining global with local edge detection to extract edge. The global edge detection obtains the whole edges and uses to improve adaptive smooth filter algorithm based on canny operator. These combinations increase the detection efficiency and reduce the computational time. In addition, the proposed algorithm has been tested through real-time document retrieval system to detect the edges in unstructured environment and generate 2D maps. These maps contain the starting and destination points in addition to current positions of the objects. This proposed work enhancing the searching ability of the document to move towards the optimal solution and to verify the capability in terms of detection efficiency.
