1. A method comprising:
- receiving, using a processor, probe data from vehicle sensors from a plurality of vehicles at a road segment, the probe data comprising observed static objects along the road segment;
identifying, using a logistic regression algorithm, road signs within the observed static objects of the probe data; and
determining, using a linear regression algorithm, a geographic location for each identified road sign along the road segment.

Abstract
Systems, methods, and apparatuses are disclosed for identifying road signs along a roadway segment from vehicle probe data. Probe data is received from vehicle sensors at a road segment, wherein the probe data includes observed static objects along the road segment. Road signs are identified within the observed static objects of the probe data using a logistic regression algorithm. The geographic location of the identified road signs are determined using a linear regression algorithm.

11. A method comprising:
-
receiving, using a processor, probe data from vehicle sensors from a plurality of vehicles at a road segment, the probe data comprising observed static objects along the road segment; identifying, using a logistic regression algorithm, speed signs within the observed static objects of the probe data; ascertaining, for each speed sign, whether the speed sign is a fixed speed sign or a variable speed sign; determining, using a linear regression algorithm, a geographic location for each identified speed sign along the road segment; and reporting the determined geographic location of the speed signs over a connected network to a traffic developer, a map developer, or a navigation device.
