用雷达点云同时分出静止与移动物体,并估计车辆自身运动速度。
Redefining Radar Segmentation: Simultaneous Static-Moving Segmentation and Ego-Motion Estimation using Radar Point Clouds
- 直接处理原始点云,无需多步信号预处理
- 首次实现静态/动态分割与自运动估计联合建模
- 适合自动驾驶中实时感知场景,无需复杂前处理
传统雷达分割研究多聚焦于移动目标的类别识别。然而,由于雷达与光学传感器的本质差异,准确一致地预测类别标签存在挑战。事实上,在汽车雷达感知任务中,判断目标是否为静止或移动是多数任务的前提。为此,本文提出一种基于神经网络的方法,可从雷达点云中同时实现静止与移动物体的分割,并进一步估计运动平台的瞬时二维速度(即自运动)。尽管执行双重任务,该方法仅使用多层感知机(MLPs)和循环神经网络(RNNs)等简单有效的特征提取模块。更重要的是,这是首个在文献中实现该功能的方法,且证明了直接从未经处理的点云中提取双任务所需信息的可行性,无需点云聚合、多普勒补偿、运动补偿或其他中间信号处理步骤。为评估性能,本文引入一组新的评价指标,并在具有挑战性的真实世界数据集RadarScenes上进行测试。结果表明,该方法在双任务上均表现优异,且具备广泛应用于其他雷达感知任务的潜力。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Conventional radar segmentation research has typically focused on learning category labels for different moving objects. Although fundamental differences between radar and optical sensors lead to differences in the reliability of predicting accurate and consistent category labels, a review of common radar perception tasks in automotive reveals that determining whether an object is moving or static is a prerequisite for most tasks. To fill this gap, this study proposes a neural network based solution that can simultaneously segment static and moving objects from radar point clouds. Furthermore, since the measured radial velocity of static objects is correlated with the motion of the radar, this approach can also estimate the instantaneous 2D velocity of the moving platform or vehicle (ego motion). However, despite performing dual tasks, the proposed method employs very simple yet effective building blocks for feature extraction: multi layer perceptrons (MLPs) and recurrent neural networks (RNNs). In addition to being the first of its kind in the literature, the proposed method also demonstrates the feasibility of extracting the information required for the dual task directly from unprocessed point clouds, without the need for cloud aggregation, Doppler compensation, motion compensation, or any other intermediate signal processing steps. To measure its performance, this study introduces a set of novel evaluation metrics and tests the proposed method using a challenging real world radar dataset, RadarScenes. The results show that the proposed method not only performs well on the dual tasks, but also has broad application potential in other radar perception tasks.
