Color space analysis of classification-based segmentation algorithms provides insights into the capabilities of the color vision system. In standard pattern recognition theory, classification algorithms are categorized by their discriminant functions in feature space. This analysis is applied to color classification methods used in road detection systems. There have been many systems that use classification techniques. By examining these road detection system in color space, a relationship can be seen between their color model representation and their capabilities and limitations.
