Abstract
This paper presents a spatial-related traffic sign inspection process for sign type, position, and placement using mobile laser scanning (MLS) data acquired by a RIEGL VMX-450 system and presents its potential for traffic sign inventory applications. First, the paper describes an algorithm for traffic sign detection in complicated road scenes based on the retroreflectivity properties of traffic signs in MLS point clouds. Then, a point cloud-to-image registration process is proposed to project the traffic sign point clouds onto a 2-D image plane. Third, based on the extracted traffic sign points, we propose a traffic sign position and placement inspection process by creating geospatial relations between the traffic signs and road environment. For further inventory applications, we acquire several spatial-related inventory measurements. Finally, a traffic sign recognition process is conducted to assign sign type. With the acquired sign type, position, and placement data, a spatial-associated sign network is built. Experimental results indicate satisfactory performance of the proposed detection, recognition, position, and placement inspection algorithms. The experimental results also prove the potential of MLS data for automatic traffic sign inventory applications.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
