Abstract To prevent traffic signs from appearing in different degrees of geometric distortion in complex environments, the invariant moment, which includes translation, rotation, and scaling invariance characteristics, is used in image recognition. First, images are pre-processed. Second, the Zernike and Hu invariant moments of the images are extracted to establish the corresponding feature datasets. Third, the data set is inputted into a support vector machine (SVM) for target classification. Real-time-collected images and the recognition image database in German traffic sign recognition benchmark are used in the experiment. Compared with extracting the Hu invariant moment, extracting the Zernike invariant moments and using SVM recognition both demonstrate a higher real-time recognition rate for traffic signs in a complex environment.
