Abstract :
Our previous work on road detection for autonomous road vehicles suggests the usage of high-level symbolic knowledge about the road structure. In this paper, we present our new approach to symbolic road recognition. We explain feature extraction, model representation, and the tree search-based matching processes and discuss performance evaluation results.
