Abstract
According to an aspect of an embodiment, operations may comprise receiving a point cloud representing a region. The operations may also comprise identifying a cluster of points in the point cloud having a higher intensity than points outside the cluster of points. The operations may also comprise determining a bounding box around the cluster of points. The operations may also comprise identifying a traffic sign within the bounding box. The operations may also comprise projecting the bounding box to coordinates of an image of the region captured by a camera. The operations may also comprise employing a deep learning model to classify a traffic sign type of the traffic sign in a portion of the image within the projected bounding box. The operations may also comprise storing information regarding the traffic sign and the traffic sign type in a high definition (HD) map of the region.
