Lane-border detection is one of the best developed modules in vision-based driver assistance systems today. However, still there is a need to improve for challenging road and traffic situations, and also a need to design tools for quantitative performance evaluation. This paper discusses and refines a method to generate ground truth for lane markings from recorded video, applies two lane-detect...

Although two-lane roundabouts theoretically exhibit excellent operating performance, in practice, safety problems arise because of inappropriate driving behavior. Turbo roundabouts, which are characterized by a much higher level of safety, are alternatives to classic two-lane roundabouts, but the capacity-related benefits derived from such roundabouts remain an open issue. Accordingly, this stu...

TG572 RFLP Probe: Five primers were designed around the RFLP probe on chromosome 7: P572F1, P572F2, P572F3, P572R1, and P572R2 (Table 1). All possible primer combinations produced a strong band with Heinz 1706 DNA between 600 bp and 1000 bp (Fig. 2). All of the primer combinations produced single bands with the exception of P572F2/P572R1, which produced two bands one at 400 bp and one at 900 bp...

Kinzel 2 Fig 1. " Standard " two-lane roundabout and key terms Abstract. Multi-lane roundabouts present motorists with a complex set of decisions. Unlike single-lane roundabouts, for which the only rule on entry is " yield to the driver on your left, then circulate to your right " , multi-lane roundabouts also require decisions about lane positioning – and these decisions are necessary at multi...

Understanding and predicting highway lane-change maneuvers is essential for driving modeling its automation. The development of data-based lane-changing decision-making algorithms nowadays in full expansion. We compare empirically this article different machine ensemble learning classification techniques to the MOBIL rule-based model using trajectory data European two-lane highways. analysis re...

image analysis is an image processing technique that aims to extract features or information from images. image analysis in medicine has a special place because is a basis for disease diagnosis for physicians. electrophoresis is a laboratory separating technique. electrophoresis images are created during the electrophoresis process. serum protein and hemoglobin electrophoresis test are the most...

A new operational perspective on fundamental concepts related to customers, service, and value differs from servicedominant logic in its approach to service systems, value creation, value co-creation, service interactions, value facilitation, and value constellations. This perspective leads to two new tools for supporting service system design: 1) A “value blueprint” uses a swimlane representat...

Sir,—I refer to the recent review by Phillips, Daborn and Hatch [1]. Between 1991 and 1993 the Department of Anaesthetics in Newcastle examined the problem of preoperative fasting intervals for children presenting for routine surgery. An initial audit revealed that many children were undergoing prolonged fasts before anaesthesia. After reviewing the literature [2], 8 clear fluid fast of 2 h was...

Lane detection and tracking is a significant component of vision-based driver assistance systems (DAS). Low-level image processing is the first step in such a component. This paper suggests three useful techniques for low-level image processing in lane detection situations: bird’s-eye view mapping, a specialized edge detection method, and the distance transform. The first two techniques have be...

This paper presents a robust and reliable lane extraction algorithm to navigate the wheelchair robot in real time in outdoor environments. Seven components have been cooperatively utilized to extract lane boundaries on roads with different conditions. Specifically, three features are efficiently extracted to represent two lane boundaries using the lane boundaries in the previous frame. Three we...
