Abstract
The general problem of recognizing both horizontal and vertical road curvature parameters while driving along the road has been solved recursively. A differential geometry representation decoupled for the two curvature components has been selected. Based on the planar solution of E.D. Dickmanns and A. Zapp (1986) and its refinements, a simple spatio-temporal model of the driving process makes it possible to take both spatial and temporal constraints into account effectively. The estimation process determines nine road and vehicle state parameters recursively at 25 Hz (40 ms) using four Intel 80286 and one 386 microprocessors. Results with the test vehicle (VaMoRs), which is a 5-ton van, are given for a hilly country road. >

A marking-based, Flexible approach to intersection detection

TL;DR: This paper describes a flexible, marking-based approach to intersection detection using edge contours extracted from an image acquired with an onboard camera and mapped to the flat earth model so as to remove the effect of the perspective mapping.

Fusing imagefeatures andnavigation system dataforaugmenting guiding information displays

TL;DR: In this paper, a system is presented which extracts the lanes using particle filters and a rule-base to overlay the video images with the guiding information from a navigation system atthe corresponding position.

Estimation of Object Motion Parameters from Noisy Images

TL;DR: An approach is presented for the estimation of object motion parameters based on a sequence of noisy images that may be of use in situations where it is difficult to resolve large numbers of object match points, but relatively long sequences of images are available.

Dynamic monocular machine vision

TL;DR: A new approach to real-time machine vision in dynamic scenes is presented based on special hardware and methods for feature extraction and information processing using integral spatio-temporal models that by-passes the nonunique inversion of the perspective projection by applying recursive least squares filtering.
