Abstract
An approach is provided for parametric representation of lane lines. The approach involves segmenting an input image into grid cells. The approach also involves processing a portion of the input image in each grid cell to detect lane lines. The approach further involves, for each grid cell in which lane lines are detected, determining intercepts of the lane lines with edges of the grid cell, and slopes of the lane lines at the intercepts. The approach further involves generating a parametric representation of the lane lines for each grid cell. The parametric representation encodes the intercepts and slopes into a data structure for each grid cell. The approach further involves providing an output parametric representation for the input image that aggregates the parametric representations of each grid cell.
