车辆共享压缩激光点云特征,实现遮挡场景下的安全协同导航。

An End-to-End Collaborative Learning Approach for Connected Autonomous Vehicles in Occluded Scenarios

  • 通过卷积网络提取激光特征并共享给邻近车辆,实现信息协同。
  • 在遮挡交叉口环境中,碰撞率降低62%,导航效率提升37%。
  • 无需专家数据,直接从经验中学习,适合低带宽车联网场景。

在自动驾驶的遮挡场景中,独立驾驶策略易导致碰撞,协作导航变得至关重要。本文提出一种基于车对车(V2V)网络的端到端协同控制方法,通过共享压缩的激光雷达(LiDAR)特征,并采用近端策略优化(Proximal Policy Optimization)训练安全高效的多智能体导航策略。与依赖专家数据的行为克隆方法不同,本方法直接在遮挡环境中从经验中学习,同时有效应对带宽限制。首先利用卷积神经网络处理激光点云数据,提取有意义特征,并与周边联网自动驾驶车辆(CAV)共享,以预警潜在危险。为评估方法性能,我们基于CARLA仿真器构建了遮挡交叉口强化学习环境,支持实时多智能体数据共享。实验结果表明,该方法在碰撞率和导航效率上均显著优于独立强化学习方法和早期融合协作方法。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Collaborative navigation becomes essential in situations of occluded scenarios in autonomous driving where independent driving policies are likely to lead to collisions. One promising approach to address this issue is through the use of Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) networks that allow for the sharing of perception information with nearby agents, preventing catastrophic accidents. In this article, we propose a collaborative control method based on a V2V network for sharing compressed LiDAR features and employing Proximal Policy Optimisation to train safe and efficient navigation policies. Unlike previous approaches that rely on expert data (behaviour cloning), our proposed approach learns the multi-agent policies directly from experience in the occluded environment, while effectively meeting bandwidth limitations. The proposed method first prepossesses LiDAR point cloud data to obtain meaningful features through a convolutional neural network and then shares them with nearby CAVs to alert for potentially dangerous situations. To evaluate the proposed method, we developed an occluded intersection gym environment based on the CARLA autonomous driving simulator, allowing real-time data sharing among agents. Our experimental results demonstrate the consistent superiority of our collaborative control method over an independent reinforcement learning method and a cooperative early fusion method.
