“…In most cases, rear-lights detection is performed first for vehicle detection [9,[20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28] or brakelights detection [10,11,[13][14][15][16][17][18][19]29]. Among them, in feature-based methods, rear-lights regions are mainly detected by extracting color features from a specific color space (i.e., RGB [9,14,15,17,20,27], YCrCb [10], L*a*b* [22], HSV [21,23,28], and YUV [19]) based on their characteristics of being red.…”
