Practical Lane Detection for Medium-to-High Density Traffic in Unstructured or Partially Occluded Roads by Shehata, Bola Marei Kamel, M. Sc.

“…Also, the KPIs’ calculation was done manually which might affect reliability of calculations. Potential improvements to the developed model are to track the detected practical-lanes across frames, consideration of vehicle trajectory and orientation, and develop a non-linear model for practical-lanes to enhance the model’s performance in curved roads. …”
