Small traffic sign recognition is a challenging problem in computer vision, and its accuracy is important to the safety of intelligent transportation systems (ITS). In this paper, we propose the multiscale region-based convolutional neural network (MR-CNN). At the detection stage, MR-CNN uses a multiscale deconvolution operation to up-sample the features of the deeper convolution layers and concatenates them to those of the shallow layer to construct the fused feature map. The fused feature map has the ability to generate fewer region proposals and achieve higher recall values. At the classification stage, we leverage the multi-scale contextual regions to exploit the information surrounding a given object proposal and construct the fused feature for the fully connected layers. The fused feature map inside the region proposal network (RPN) focuses primarily on improving the image resolution and semantic information for small traffic sign detection, while outside the RPN, the fused feature enhances the feature representation by leveraging the contextual information. Finally, we evaluated MR-CNN on the largest dataset, Tsinghua-Tencent 100K, which is suitable for our problem and more challenging than the GTSDB and GTSRB datasets. The final experimental results indicate that the MR-CNN is superior at detecting small traffic signs, and that it achieves the state-of-the-art performance compared with other methods.
