TY - JOUR PY - 2019// TI - Traffic sign detection using a multi-scale recurrent attention network JO - IEEE transactions on intelligent transportation systems A1 - Tian, Yan A1 - Gelernter, Judith A1 - Wang, Xun A1 - Li, Jianyuan A1 - Yu, Yizhou SP - 4466 EP - 4475 VL - 20 IS - 12 N2 - Traffic sign detection plays an important role in intelligent transportation systems. But traffic signs are still not well-detected by deep convolution neural network-based methods because the sizes of their feature maps are constrained, and the environmental context information has not been fully exploited by other researchers. What we need is a way to incorporate relevant context detail from the neighboring layers into the detection architecture. We have developed a novel traffic sign detection approach based on recurrent attention for multi-scale analysis and use of local context in the image. Experiments on the German traffic sign detection benchmark and the Tsinghua-Tencent 100K data set demonstrated that our approach obtained an accuracy comparable to the state-of-the-art approaches in traffic sign detection.
