Abstract
In this paper we describe two methods for hazardous material (hazmat) sign recognition. The first method is based on segment detection and grouping using geometric constraints. The second method is based on the use of a saliency map and convex quadrilateral detection. Our experimental results show a detection accuracy of 57.7% on a set of hazmat signs taken in the field under various lightning conditions, distances, and perspectives.
