为雷达感知设计动态过滤框架,提升对高危目标的检测能力。
SAFERad: A Framework to Enable Radar Data for Safety-Relevant Perception Tasks
- 根据车辆轨迹预判雷达点危险度,动态调整过滤策略。
- 在示例场景中将非聚类高危点减少74.8%,召回率显著提升。
- 适用于自动驾驶高安全要求场景,尤其关注弱势道路使用者。
雷达传感器在自动驾驶感知系统中至关重要,但噪声水平较高。以往依赖严格滤波器的方法虽能去除多数误报,却也导致漏检。未来高度自动化功能对误报率要求更高,简单滤波策略不再适用。本文提出一种改进的滤波方法,根据雷达点可能引发碰撞的潜在危害性动态调整过滤强度。算法基于自动驾驶车辆的规划或预估轨迹,为每个点计算危险度评分。高危点可触发多种确认或排除机制。我们引入危险区域概念,该区域内不设滤波阈值。现有常见雷达数据集极少包含高危场景,因此我们通过调整规划轨迹以逼近弱势道路使用者,将其作为真实高危点进行评估。实验表明,该危险度度量具有高召回率。此外,后处理算法在示例设置中使非聚类高危点数量降低74.8%,优于常规滤波器。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Radar sensors play a crucial role for perception systems in automated driving but suffer from a high level of noise. In the past, this could be solved by strict filters, which remove most false positives at the expense of undetected objects. Future highly automated functions are much more demanding with respect to error rate. Hence, if the radar sensor serves as a component of perception systems for such functions, a simple filter strategy cannot be applied. In this paper, we present a modified filtering approach which is characterized by the idea to vary the filtering depending on the potential of harmful collision with the object which is potentially represented by the radar point. We propose an algorithm which determines a criticality score for each point based on the planned or presumable trajectory of the automated vehicle. Points identified as very critical can trigger manifold actions to confirm or deny object presence. Our pipeline introduces criticality regions. The filter threshold in these criticality regions is omitted. Commonly known radar data sets do not or barely feature critical scenes. Thus, we present an approach to evaluate our framework by adapting the planned trajectory towards vulnerable road users, which serve as ground truth critical points. Evaluation of the criticality metric prove high recall rates. Besides, our post-processing algorithm lowers the rate of non-clustered critical points by 74.8 % in an exemplary setup compared to a moderate, generic filter.
