CHAPTER -4

RBIS (REGION BASED ITERATIVE SEED)SEGMENTATION FOR

DETECTING THE LANES

Segmentation means partitioning the image into various parts. The image is divided
into segments because there are some regions in the image that are not needed or not
contain any information. So, by doing segmentation we can use the essential segments
for processing the image. An image is a collection of various pixels. The pixels which
are having the same intensity are grouped using segmentation [130].

The second method introduced is a segmentation technique for multilane detection.

This method is called as RBIS segmentation. Initially, multilane input image
undergoes the segmentation process using the sparking approach. After the
segmentation, the detection of multilane is carried out using the proposed iterative seed
method. During segmentation, the image is divided into grids. Next, the minimum
distance is found by using Bhattacharyya distance; after that, the grouping is done.
Lastly, the neighborhood distance is used for segmenting lanes and the roads for
detecting multilane. So, the proposed method in this chapter performs lane detection
by dividing the lane region into segments are optimally determines lane regions using
the iterative process.

Here, we have introduced a novel segmentation technique called RBIS for lane
detection from the given image sample using an iterative method based on the distance
measures like Bhattacharya, and the neighborhood distance.

4.1.THE ARCHITECTURE OF THE PROPOSEDRBIS METHOD

The Architecture of the projected method is depicted in figure 4.1. The input image
is provided and segmentation is applied to this image using the sparking method. Then,
the output of the segmentation is used to get multilane detected images by applying
the proposedRBIS segmentation method.

4.1.1. IMAGE SEGMENTATION USING THE SPARKING PROCESS

Segmentation is implemented using the Sparking process. The spaking process

computes the optimal threshold and performs automatic segmentation on lane image.
Suppose, I input image having the size u  v , goes through the sparkling
procedure[49] for preapa appropriately for segmentation task. The input image is
converted into v images using an exponential kernel. The data is converted into an
exponential function for identifying the exponential kernel, and the expression is given
below:

𝑟2
𝑣1 = 𝑒𝑥𝑝 − [ ]
2𝑇𝑎2

(4.1)

Where,

𝑟is denoted as a random integer, and the size of the random number is 1 × 𝑠. The
threshold value provided by the user is denoted as 𝑇𝑎 .

The normalized vector 𝑣 to obtain the kernel function is given as:

1
[ 𝑠 ∑𝑠𝑣=1 max(𝑣) − 𝑣] − 𝑣
𝑘=
∑𝑠𝑣=1 max(𝑣) − 𝑣

(4.2)

Now, for the given input 𝐽 the sparking image is obtained. Rotate the input image e
𝐽 atdiverse angles to create 𝑠 images of the identical size. Therefore, the sparking
image gained is expressed below,

𝐿𝑒 + 𝐿𝑚𝑖𝑛 (𝑝, 𝑞)
𝐿𝑛𝑒𝑤 (𝑝, 𝑞) = 255
𝐿𝑚𝑎𝑥 (𝑝, 𝑞)

(4.3)

Where,

80
 𝐿𝑚𝑖𝑛 (𝑝, 𝑞) = min [𝑙1 (𝑝, 𝑞), 𝑙2 (𝑝, 𝑞), … . 𝑙𝑏 (𝑝, 𝑞)]

𝐿𝑚𝑎𝑥 (𝑝, 𝑞) = max [𝑙1 (𝑝, 𝑞), 𝑙2 (𝑝, 𝑞), … . 𝑙𝑏 (𝑝, 𝑞)

The threshold value is denoted by𝐿𝑒 , 𝑝 represents the row pixel value and 𝑞
represents the column pixel value.

Sparking imge is used to deine the value of optimal threshold. Here, the Neighbor Pixel
(NP) shows that current pixel value is referred by all roalues are indicated by all
coloumns.A count value is usd to specify the NP matrix 𝑁𝑃[𝑝, 𝑞]from the sparking
matrix. Next, pixel are having 0-255 values and these all pixel values estimated with “
X ” to gain the best threshold value. Here,𝐻 it is considered as the threshold. From the
matrix NP, the matrix W and Z are constructed as follows:

𝑊 ← [𝐻 × 𝐻] (4.4)

𝑍 ← [(255 − 𝐻)(255 − 𝐻)] (4.5)

Threshold 𝐻 information gain is found by calculating the entropy of 𝑊 and 𝑍 as shown

below,

1
𝑆𝑊 = − 2 [𝑝(𝑊)𝑙𝑜𝑔𝑃(𝑊)] (4.6)

1
𝑆𝑍 = − 2 [𝑝(𝑍)𝑙𝑜𝑔𝑃(𝑍)] (4.7)

Where, 𝑊and 𝑍are the probabilities, and they are denoted as 𝑝(𝑊)and 𝑝(𝑍). The
selected threshold’s cost value is provided by doing the addition of the entropy, and it
is shown in equation (4.8). To perform binarization select the maximum threshold
value as the optimal threshold, so that we will get the final segmented image.

𝑋 = 𝑆𝑊 + 𝑆𝑍

demonstrated in figure 4.2(b).

4.1.2. THE PROPOSEDRBISSEGMENTATION METHOD FOR MULTILANE

DETECTION

Now, we have got the segmented image after the sparkling process. This segmented
image is now exposed to the proposedRBIS segmentation approach for path
recognition. At first, the image is divided into grids or matrices. Then any three grids
are selected randomly, and these selected three grids are the targets. After selecting the
targets, it is now easy to compute the Bhattacharya distance between each grid and
targets. At that point, the Bhattacharya distance is used to specify the centroid with the
grids of minimum distance. The distance measure is used for separating the image
into two parts that are one part is road and the other is lane. Now, divide the segmented
image X into partitioned into 3 3 grid size, as following,
𝐺 = {𝐺1 , 𝐺2 , … … , 𝐺𝑗 , … … . . 𝐺𝑣 }
(4. 9)
Three grids as a target are selected from the partitioned grids, and is given as,

T = T1 , T2 , T3  (4.10)

The phases associated with the proposed segmentation strategy are talked about
beneath:

Step1: Initialization

In this step, we are randomly selecting grids k as a target among the v grids. An
iterative procedure is used,and the random targets are optimized at the final step. The
table shown in the figure 4.3 depicts that out of 9 grids, we have selected three grids as
a target.

83
 Figure 4.3: Constructed matrix

Step 2: Calculate the distance using Bhattacharya distance

In this step, Bhattacharya distance is used for calculating distance [50]between

thetargets and grid points.We can also say that the grid that matches best affords with
the minimum value of Bhattacharya distance. Therefore, the high corresponding to the
minimal distance measure is selected as targets. After that, the targets are matched with
all the available grids for selecting the best M centroid. The equation for calculating
Bhattacharya distance is given as follows:
1 1 𝑉𝐸2 𝑉𝑟2 1 (𝑀𝐸 − 𝑀𝑇 )2 1 𝑟𝐸 − 𝑟𝑇
𝐵𝐷 (𝐺, 𝑇) = 𝑙𝑛 ( ( 2 + 2 + 2)) + ( ( 2 )) + ( ( ))
4 4 𝑉𝑟 𝑉𝐸 4 𝑉𝐸 + 𝑉𝑟2 4 𝑉𝐸2 + 𝑉𝑟2

(4. 11)

Where,

84
The Bhattacharya distance is denoted by 𝐵𝐷 (𝐺, 𝑇), variance of the E th distribution is
given by 𝑉2𝐸, and T th distribution variance is given by 𝑉2𝑟 . 𝑀𝐸 is the mean of E th
the distribution, and 𝑟𝐸 and 𝑟𝑇 are the centroid kurtosis .

Therefore, based on the distance calculation, the grid that belongs to a particular target
is shown in the figure4.4 with the sample values. The figure 4.4 shows that the distance
between grid 1 and target 1 is the minimum as compared to the distance calculated
between grid 1 and target 2 as well as grid 1 and target 3, therefore, grid 1 belongs to
the target 1. Similarly, when the distance is calculated with grid 4, the distance between
target 2 and grid 4 is less as compared to the distance between grid 4 and target 1 as
well as grid 4 and target 3. In the figure 4.4, grids are highlighted as belonging to their
particular targets.

Figure 4.4: Selection of optimal targets

85
Step 3: update the Target

In this step, the mean of all the data points assigned to the specific target is taken, and
the targets are recomputed. If in case the sample is not present in the closest grid, then
switch the sample to the corresponding grid and update the target.
Step 4: Grouping the grids

Repeat steps 2 and 3 iteratively till optimal target are determined. The minimum
distance measure is used to select the best grid. Therefore, at the end of the iteration,
the selected grids are grouped based on Bhattacharya distance.
Step 5: Use the neighbor distance measure to merge the grids into two segments

As our objective is to separate lanes from the roads, so, the 3 targets achieved are
merged into two segments. The separation is done by measuring the nearest neighbor
distance of the grids. The grids which are having the same intensities are taken into
account to fit into the same segment. Therefore, the grids which are having minimal
distance with their neighbor are merged so that the grids that are grouped as 3 are
merged into 2 segments: road segment and lane segment.

4.4. Comparative analysis

This section elaborates on the comparative analysis of the projectedRBIS segmentation

method. The comparative analysis is carried out for different iteration. The results of
the comparative analysis are assessed based on the metrics specificity, sensitivity and
detection accuracy.

a) Comparative analysis based on the detection accuracy

The proportional analysis is performed based on the detection accuracy metric for
varying number of iterations is as shown in figure4.13. Here, the number of iterations

100
is 70, and the detection accuracy values for the existing method are, DVPE is 0.9141,
MMBMT is 0.8368, DEEP CNN is 0.9519, and EW-CSA based DEEP CNN 0.9579.

Figure 4.13: Comparative analysis based on detection accuracy

The detection accuracy of these existing methods is comparatively low as compared

to the implemented RBIS segmentation method. The proposed method has a detection
accuracy value of 0.9618. When the number of iterations is 160, then the detection
accuracy value for DVPE is 0.9115, MMBMT is 0.9107, DEEP CNN is 0.9838, and
EW-CSA based DEEP CNN 0.9785. Detection accuracy value for the proposedRBIS
segmentation method is 0.9889. It is observable from the figure 4.13that the proposed

101
method gained a maximum detection accuracy value as compared to existing methods.
After analyzing the above data, we can infer that the projectedRBIS
segmentationtechniquehas accomplished better enactment than the existing
comparative techniques.

b) Comparative analysis based on the specificity

Figure 4.14: Comparative analysis based on the specificity

The specificity metric is used for comparative method analysis, and it is depicted in
figure 4.14. The number of iterations is selected here is 40, and the specificity value
for DVPE is 0.74, MMBMT is 0.6088, DEEP CNN is 0.5, and EW-CSA based DEEP

102
CNN is 0.6677. The specificity value for the proposedRBIS segmentation method is
0.7817 for 40 iterations. Here, we can observe that the projectedRBIS
segmentationtechnique has given the highest specificity value as compare to other
existing methods. Now, the number of iterations is increased to 13, then the specificity
value for DVPE is 0.74, MMBMT is 0.7085, DEEP CNN is 0.8919, and EW-CSA
based DEEP CNN is 0.7590. The proposed RBISsegmentation method has the
specificity value 0.8402. The above data clearly shows that the projectedechnique has
gained maximum specificity as associated to existing methods.

c) Comparative analysis based on the sensitivity

Figure 4.15:Comparative analysis based on the sensitivity

The sensitivity metric comparative analysis for varying iterations for the projected
method and the existing method is described in figure 4.15. The number of the iteration

103
 is 100 and the existing technique DVPE has 0.8712 value , MMBMT has 0.9073 value
, DEEP CNN has 0.9707 value, and EW CSA based DEEP CNN has 0.9718. These
values are less when related with the projectedtechnique. The proposedRBIS
segmentationtechnique has a sensitivity value of 0.9903 for the 100 iterations. Now,
the iterations are increased, it is 130, so the sensitivity value for DVPE is 0.8712,
MMBMT is 0.9373, DEEP CNN is 0.9733, and for EW-CSA based deep CNN is
0.9767. The proposedRBIS segmentation method’s sensitivity value or 130 iterations
is 0.9908. It is visible that the proposedRBIS segmentation method has performed well
and improved sensitivity value 0.9916 when no of iterations is 160.

Summary

In this chapter, we have offered a multilane detection strategy by proposing RBIS

segmentation technique. The input image is provided, and then by using the sparking
approach segmentation is carried out. Followed by the segmentation, the proposed
iterative seed is applied for multilane detection. The image is divided into grids and
Bhattacharya distance measure is used or selecting the targets. Here, iterative process
is used for determining the optimal targets. Lastly, grids are merged using the
neighborhood distance measure for detecting lanes. Then, the proposed
sytemperformance is measured using metrics like specificity, sensitivity, and detection
accuracy. The proposed systems simulation results are evaluated with the existing
