Abstract :Transportation refers to a process based on the movement of people or vehicles from one place to another. Sea routes and roads have existed for centuries. They generally play a very important role in people\'s daily life, trade and industrial activities. Highway, a mode of transportation, is the first preferred mode of transportation worldwide. However, various signs and rules have been set by the authorities to prevent chaos on the highways. Traffic signs are the most important of these rules. In this study, transfer learning models (VGG16, VGG19, Xception and EfficientNet) are used to classify traffic signs using a state-of-art traffic signs dataset (German Traffic Sign Detection Benchmark-GTSDB). Accuracy was used as the classification evaluation criterion. The CNN model designed for the study gave the best result with an accuracy rate of 98% and a model competing with the literature was proposed.
