Classification of weather situations on single color images
Open accessAbstract
Present vision based driver assistance systems are designed to perform under good-natured weather conditions. However, limited visibility caused by heavy rain or fog strongly affects vision systems. To improve machine vision in bad weather situations, a reliable detection system is necessary as a ground base. We present an approach that is able to distinguish between multiple weather situations based on the classification of single monocular color images, without any additional assumptions or prior knowledge. The proposed image descriptor clearly outperforms existing descriptors for that task. Experimental results on real traffic images are characterized by high accuracy, efficiency, and versatility with respect to driver assistance systems.

Roser and Moosmann's classifier showed a good rate of classification for the highway-only subset (2% error) but the classification rate got worse as the complexity of the driving environment increased.

Roser and Moosmann's classifier had some misclassification errors for adjacent classes (e.g., "clear" and "light rain" or "Heavy rain" and "light rain").
“In addition, for adjacent classes (e.g., “clear” and “light rain” or “Heavy rain” and “light rain”), some misclassification errors were reported.”

Roser and Moosmann's system does not detect individual raindrops on vehicle windshield, which makes it less appropriate for ADAS and autonomous driving applications.

Some background objects were mistakenly detected as raindrops, which skewed the results of Roser and Moosmann's classifier.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
