Outline of Final Research Achievements

The following four techniques have been studied: 1) a visibility estimation method considering the relationship among multiple target objects in traffic scenes, 2) a visibility estimation method in rainy driving scenes where raindrops are on the front glass of a vehicle, 3) a visibility estimation method based on the 3D-structure of the traffic scene, 4) a visibility estimation method for adaptively switching the estimators based on the characteristics of vehicle drivers.
