TY - JOUR PY - 2014// TI - Proposition of generic validation criteria using stereo-vision for on-road obstacle detection JO - International journal of robotics and automation (Calgary) A1 - Labayrade, Raphaƫl A1 - Perrollaz, Mathias A1 - Gruyer, Dominique A1 - Lambert, Alain A1 - Aubert, Didier SP - 65 EP - 87 VL - 29 IS - 1 N2 - Real-time obstacle detection is an essential function for the future of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), but its applications to the driving safety require a very high reliability: the detection rate must be high, while the false detection rate must remain extremely low. Such features seem antinomic for obstacle detection systems, especially when using a single sensor. Multi-sensor fusion is often considered as a mean to reduce this limitation. In this paper, we propose to use stereo-vision as a post-process to improve the reliability of any obstacle detection system, by reducing the number of false positives. Our algorithm, which is both generic and real-time confirms detections by locally using the stereoscopic data. We evaluated and validated our approach with an initial detection based on a vision system and a laser scanner. The evaluation dataset is real on-road data and contains more than 20000 images.
