Deep Learning in Lane Marking Detection: A Survey

Lane marking detection is a fundamental but crucial step in intelligent driving systems. It can not only provide relevant road condition information to prevent lane departure but also assist vehicle positioning and forehead car detection. However, lane marking detection faces many challenges, including extreme lighting, missing lane markings, and obstacle obstructions. Recently, deep learning-based algorithms draw much attention in intelligent driving society because of their excellent performance. In this paper, we review deep learning methods for lane marking detection, focusing on their network structures and optimization objectives, the two key determinants of their success. Besides, we summarize existing lane-related datasets, evaluation criteria, and common data processing techniques. We also compare the detection performance and running time of various methods, and conclude with some current challenges and future trends for deep learning-based lane marking detection algorithm.
