Abstract

I approach the traffic signs classification problem with a convolutional neural network implemented in TensorFlow reaching 99.33% accuracy. The highlights of this solution would be data pre-processing, data augmentation pipeline, pre-training and skipping connections in the network. I am using Python as programming language and TensorFlow as a fairly low-level machine learning framework.
