Abstract

Intelligent transportation system is an emerging leap in the automobile sector, Classifying and recognizing the road and traffic signs are the supreme aspect for the companies for developing their own prototype in this industry. Convolutioal neural networks in deep learning is an fortunate method to attain accurate results in these image processing tasks.

Although Numerous approach by different researchers have achieved promising results in classifying and predicting traffic signs using traditional hand crafted methods, The proposed work focuses on developing a convolutional neural network classifier where this deep learning technique classifies all the traffic signs images with improved accuracy and precision. the performance of the model is further improved by effective fine tuning in the hyper parameters. The data points in the considered dataset contained the traffic sign images and markings in different environmental conditions and distinct lighting conditions. These signs are first preprocessed to identify its extract clinical information from it and then preprocessed images are transformed to identify the area of interest thus signs are accurately recognized using deep learning. We use an end to end open source platform tensor flow to implement CNN. The hyperparameter tuning of the model is performed using Grid search CV technique and optimized value for the parameters are chosen for improved efficiency of the model. The performance of the model is evaluated using the performance metrics. The presented model gaid the overall accuracy of 98.44% using the deep neural network model.
