Introduction #
ItalianSigns is a dataset that includes images of road contexts captured using a smartphone camera with a resolution of 1280x720 (HD). All the images were taken in the Reggio Emilia province of Italy. This dataset consists of 362 labeled images, and each image showcases a road sign, specifically those related to speed limits. It also includes annotations for the speed limit number and a bounding box outlining the Region of Interest (ROI) containing the sign.
To locate and extract the bounding boxes around the signs, the authors utilized the HoughCircles method. In addition, they employed a K-nearest neighbors (KNN) algorithm to analyze feature vectors extracted using SIFT between the ground truth images and the regions of interest in the inference images.
Summary #
ItalianSigns is a dataset for an object detection task. Possible applications of the dataset could be in the automotive industry.
The dataset consists of 361 images with 361 labeled objects belonging to 1 single class (sign).
Images in the ItalianSigns dataset have bounding box annotations. All images are labeled (i.e. with annotations). There are no pre-defined train/val/test splits in the dataset. The dataset was released in 2022.
