高精度(HD)地图为自动驾驶系统规划提供了详尽准确的环境信息,是关键要素。为避免人工标注的繁重工作,自动化地图创建方法应运而生。近年来趋势从离线映射转向在线映射,以确保地图的实时可用性。尽管性能不断提升,在线映射仍面临时间一致性、传感器遮挡、运行时长和泛化能力等挑战。本文提出一种新型离线映射方法,将驾驶者使用的非正式路径(即轨迹)融入地图构建过程。该方法聚合自车及其他交通参与者的历史轨迹数据,利用基于Transformer的深度学习模型构建全局地图。与传统离线方法不同,本方法支持持续更新且对传感器无依赖,有助于高效数据传输。实验表明,该方法在性能上超越现有顶尖在线映射方案,在未见过的环境和传感器配置下表现出更强泛化能力。我们在两个基准数据集上验证了该方法的鲁棒性与适用性。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
High-definition (HD) maps offer extensive and accurate environmental information about the driving scene, making them a crucial and essential element for planning within autonomous driving systems. To avoid extensive efforts from manual labeling, methods for automating the map creation have emerged. Recent trends have moved from offline mapping to online mapping, ensuring availability and actuality of the utilized maps. While the performance has increased in recent years, online mapping still faces challenges regarding temporal consistency, sensor occlusion, runtime, and generalization. We propose a novel offline mapping approach that integrates trails - informal routes used by drivers - into the map creation process. Our method aggregates trail data from the ego vehicle and other traffic participants to construct a comprehensive global map using transformer-based deep learning models. Unlike traditional offline mapping, our approach enables continuous updates while remaining sensor-agnostic, facilitating efficient data transfer. Our method demonstrates superior performance compared to state-of-the-art online mapping approaches, achieving improved generalization to previously unseen environments and sensor configurations. We validate our approach on two benchmark datasets, highlighting its robustness and applicability in autonomous driving systems.
