- 通过特征压缩模块融合前视图与深度特征,提升信息利用率
- 在Apollo和OpenLane数据集上表现领先,适合真实驾驶场景
3D车道线检测在自动驾驶中至关重要。现有方法多从前视图(FV)图像构建鸟瞰图(BEV)特征以更有效感知车道三维信息,但受限于缺乏深度信息,常依赖平坦地面假设。利用单目深度估计可减少约束,但现有方法难以有效融合两者。本文提出一种基于深度感知的BEV特征转换方法,设计深度网络获取关键深度信息,简化视图转换;提出特征压缩模块降低前视图与深度特征的高度维度,实现关键特征的有效融合;进而构建高质量的BEV特征。该方法在合成数据集Apollo和真实数据集OpenLane上均达到先进水平。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
3D Lane detection plays an important role in autonomous driving. Recent advances primarily build Birds-Eye-View (BEV) feature from front-view (FV) images to perceive 3D information of Lane more effectively. However, constructing accurate BEV information from FV image is limited due to the lacking of depth information, causing previous works often rely heavily on the assumption of a flat ground plane. Leveraging monocular depth estimation to assist in constructing BEV features is less constrained, but existing methods struggle to effectively integrate the two tasks. To address the above issue, in this paper, an accurate 3D lane detection method based on depth-aware BEV feature transtormation is proposed. In detail, an effective feature extraction module is designed, in which a Depth Net is integrated to obtain the vital depth information for 3D perception, thereby simplifying the complexity of view transformation. Subquently a feature reduce module is proposed to reduce height dimension of FV features and depth features, thereby enables effective fusion of crucial FV features and depth features. Then a fusion module is designed to build BEV feature from prime FV feature and depth information. The proposed method performs comparably with state-of-the-art methods on both synthetic Apollo, realistic OpenLane datasets.
