用鸟瞰图解决单目里程计尺度漂移问题,实现高精度定位。

BEV-DWPVO: BEV-based Differentiable Weighted Procrustes for Low Scale-drift Monocular Visual Odometry on Ground

  • 基于鸟瞰图建模环境,将6自由度估计简化为3自由度。
  • 在NCLT、Oxford、KITTI数据集上显著降低尺度漂移。
  • 端到端可训练,仅需姿态监督,无需额外任务辅助。

单目视觉里程计(MVO)为自动驾驶车辆提供低成本、实时的定位方案,但受限于单目相机缺乏固有尺度信息。传统方法虽可解释性强,但仅能获得相对尺度,长距离任务中存在严重尺度漂移。基于学习的方法通过透视视图利用大量训练数据预测深度以获取绝对尺度,但其泛化能力受限于对每个点深度的精确估计。本文提出新型MVO系统BEV-DWPVO,利用地面平面假设,将环境表示为具有统一尺度的网格化鸟瞰图(BEV)特征图,从而将位姿估计复杂度从6自由度降至3自由度。关键点在BEV空间内提取与匹配,并通过可微加权普鲁克斯特求解器进行位姿估计。整个系统完全可微,支持仅依赖姿态监督的端到端训练,无需辅助任务。在挑战性长序列数据集NCLT、Oxford、KITTI上的实验表明,BEV-DWPVO在多数评估指标上优于现有MVO方法。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Monocular Visual Odometry (MVO) provides a cost-effective, real-time positioning solution for autonomous vehicles. However, MVO systems face the common issue of lacking inherent scale information from monocular cameras. Traditional methods have good interpretability but can only obtain relative scale and suffer from severe scale drift in long-distance tasks. Learning-based methods under perspective view leverage large amounts of training data to acquire prior knowledge and estimate absolute scale by predicting depth values. However, their generalization ability is limited due to the need to accurately estimate the depth of each point. In contrast, we propose a novel MVO system called BEV-DWPVO. Our approach leverages the common assumption of a ground plane, using Bird's-Eye View (BEV) feature maps to represent the environment in a grid-based structure with a unified scale. This enables us to reduce the complexity of pose estimation from 6 Degrees of Freedom (DoF) to 3-DoF. Keypoints are extracted and matched within the BEV space, followed by pose estimation through a differentiable weighted Procrustes solver. The entire system is fully differentiable, supporting end-to-end training with only pose supervision and no auxiliary tasks. We validate BEV-DWPVO on the challenging long-sequence datasets NCLT, Oxford, and KITTI, achieving superior results over existing MVO methods on most evaluation metrics.
