Domain Adaptation and Multi-view Attention for Learnable Landmark Tracking with Sparse Data

  • 采用轻量网络与域自适应,用少量标注数据实现跨环境特征检测
  • 提出注意力对齐机制,提升视角变化下特征描述的鲁棒性
  • 适合资源受限的航天器实时自主导航场景

天体表面地形特征的检测与追踪对自主航天飞行至关重要,涵盖地形相对导航(TRN)、进入-下降-着陆(EDL)、危险分析及科学数据采集。传统基于光度立体法的流程依赖大量先验影像和离线处理,受辐射硬化系统计算能力限制,导致任务成本高、处理速率低且泛化能力差。近年来,基于学习的计算机视觉方法虽提升了航天器自主性,但常因计算负载过高难以在典型航天器硬件上实现实时运行,且多样外星环境下的标注数据稀缺。本文提出一种基于检测与描述的原位地标追踪新方法。采用专为现役航天飞行处理器设计的轻量级高效神经网络架构。针对地标检测,提出改进的域自适应方法,利用低成本获取的训练数据识别天体地形特征;针对地标描述,引入新颖的注意力对齐公式,学习在显著视角变化下仍能保持对应关系的鲁棒特征表示。二者结合构成统一追踪系统,在性能上优于现有最先进方法。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

The detection and tracking of celestial surface terrain features are crucial for autonomous spaceflight applications, including Terrain Relative Navigation (TRN), Entry, Descent, and Landing (EDL), hazard analysis, and scientific data collection. Traditional photoclinometry-based pipelines often rely on extensive a priori imaging and offline processing, constrained by the computational limitations of radiation-hardened systems. While historically effective, these approaches typically increase mission costs and duration, operate at low processing rates, and have limited generalization. Recently, learning-based computer vision has gained popularity to enhance spacecraft autonomy and overcome these limitations. While promising, emerging techniques frequently impose computational demands exceeding the capabilities of typical spacecraft hardware for real-time operation and are further challenged by the scarcity of labeled training data for diverse extraterrestrial environments. In this work, we present novel formulations for in-situ landmark tracking via detection and description. We utilize lightweight, computationally efficient neural network architectures designed for real-time execution on current-generation spacecraft flight processors. For landmark detection, we propose improved domain adaptation methods that enable the identification of celestial terrain features with distinct, cheaply acquired training data. Concurrently, for landmark description, we introduce a novel attention alignment formulation that learns robust feature representations that maintain correspondence despite significant landmark viewpoint variations. Together, these contributions form a unified system for landmark tracking that demonstrates superior performance compared to existing state-of-the-art techniques.
