Research on image recognition and processing application technology of unmanned vehicle based on deep learning

Abstract. Image recognition technology is critically important in various fields, including the rapidly advancing sector of autonomous vehicles. As one of the core components enabling driverless cars to perceive their environment and make informed decisions, image recognition has seen significant advancements due to deep learning. This paper focuses on the application of deep learning in image recognition for self-driving cars and explores its implications for the future of autonomous driving technology. To begin with, this paper examines the empirical evaluation of deep learning models in highway driving scenarios. By employing Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN), these models achieve high detection rates and superior accuracy in recognizing vehicles and lanes. The robustness of these models is tested under varying weather conditions and times, demonstrating their effectiveness compared to classical computer vision techniques. Next, the paper discusses radar-camera fusion technology, highlighting different fusion strategies such as data-level, feature-level, object-level, and hybrid-level. The findings suggest that while feature-level fusion excels in detecting small objects in complex scenes, hybrid-level fusion is optimal for diverse driving situations. This section provides valuable insights into the integration of multimodal data for improved object recognition and semantic segmentation. After discussing fusion technologies, the paper finally reviews the security challenges posed by adversarial attacks on deep learning-based unmanned systems.
