Abstract

The semantic informations extracted from traffic scenes are proposed to enhance the capacity of on-the-shelf navigation systems and made more suitable for autonomous vehicles. The additional classifications of essential traffic informations and estimation of the driving visibility are the basis for making decision to navigation tasks. Furthermore, the semantic structure can be also supporting to the behaviour-based networks and traffic scene interpretations.
