“…All tree-based models were trained in a Python environment with sklearn module. To match the benchmark, we trained RF with KUL Belgium traffic signs dataset 43 considering the same 8 class and training/testing set as in literature 27 , thus we used 2300 training and 200 testing images taken from the classes ‘No Overtaking’, ‘Children’, ‘Crossroads with a minor road’, ‘Priority road’, ‘Give Way’, Stop’, ‘No vehicles’, and ‘Maximum speed limit’. However, while the reference RF was trained with 64 trees and a maximum depth of 6, we optimized the hyperparameters namely maximum depth and number of trees reaching an accuracy of 96.5% when deployed to analog CAM, overcoming the given accuracy of 94%.…”
