Road recognition in complex terrains
复杂地形下的道路识别

Road recognition is the principal issue in intelligent vehicle to ensure the safe driving. Therefore, this paper discussed the fast vision-based recognition algorithm of some special structural roads, including ramp and curve. Based on the recognition results, it presented the vehicle control suggestion mainly on direction and velocity. And this paper proposed a IPM inverse perspective mapping based algorithm as well to solve the more complicated case. Particularly, mountain road images were tested in the experiments. The results prove the validity of the method.
