This paper presents a road signs detection and classification system based on a three-step algorithm composed of color segmentation, shape recognition, and a neural network. The final goal of this algorithm is to detect and classify almost all road signs present along Italian roads. Color segmentation was suggested by the aim to achieve real time execution, since color-based segmentation is faster than the one based on shape. In order to save computational time, only the RGB color space, directly supplied by the chosen camera, or color spaces that can be obtained with linear transformations, are considered. Two different methods are used for shape detection, one is based on pattern matching with simple models and the other one is based on edge detection and geometrical cues. The complete set of signs taken in account has been divided in several categories according to their shape and color. Finally for each road signs set a neural network is built and trained.
