Basic Traffic Sign Detection Dataset

Dataset for training traffic sign classification and detection models.

This dataset was created to identify specific Brazilian regulatory traffic signs. Due to the universal nature of road signage, it may also be applicable to other contexts. Specifically, the dataset includes:

R-26 (straight foward);

R-25a (turn left);

R-25b (turn right);

R-3 (no straight ahead);

R-4a (no left turn);

R-4b (no right turn).

It was composed of collected and labeled images, added to others present and already labeled in four other datasets of the Roboflow Universe platform. The images of the classes of interest were separated, and data augmentation was performed using this first small quantity of images. In the beggining, augmentations were applied through the aforementioned platform, and then more through external and customized code.
