Abstract

HD map reconstruction is crucial for autonomous driving. LiDAR-based methods are limited due to the deployed expensive sensors and time-consuming computation. Camera-based methods usually need to separately perform road segmentation and view transformation, which often causes distortion and the absence of content.  To push the limits of the technology, we present a novel framework that enables reconstructing a local map formed by road layout and vehicle occupancy in the bird's-eye view given a front-view monocular image only.  In particular, we propose a cross-view transformation module, which takes the constraint of cycle consistency between views into account and makes full use of their correlation to strengthen the view transformation and scene understanding. Considering the relationship between vehicles and roads, we also design a context-aware discriminator to further refine the results. Experiments on public benchmarks show that our method achieves the state-of-the-art performance in the tasks of road layout estimation and vehicle occupancy estimation. Especially for the latter task, our model outperforms all competitors by a large margin. Furthermore, our model runs at 35 FPS on a single GPU, which is efficient and applicable for real-time panorama HD map reconstruction.

Contributions

  • We propose a novel framework that reconstructs a local map formed by top-view road scene layout and vehicle occupancy using a single monocular front-view image only. In particular, we propose a cross-view transformation module which leverages the cycle consistency between views and their correlation to strengthen the view transformation.
  • We also propose a context-aware discriminator that considers the spatial relationship between vehicles and roads in the task of estimating vehicle occupancies.
  • On public benchmarks, it is demonstrated that our model achieves the state-of-the-art performance for the tasks of road layout and vehicle occupancy estimation.

Installation

We recommend setting up a Python 3.7 and Pytorch 1.0 Virtual Environment and installing all the dependencies listed in the requirements file.

git clone https://github.com/JonDoe-297/cross-view.git

cd cross-view
pip install -r requirements.txt

Datasets

In the paper, we've presented results for KITTI 3D Object, KITTI Odometry, KITTI RAW, and Argoverse 3D Tracking v1.0 datasets. For comparison with Schulter et. al., We've used the same training and test splits sequences from the KITTI RAW dataset. For more details about the training/testing splits one can look at the splits directory. And you can download Ground-truth from Monolayout.

# Download KITTI RAW
./data/download_datasets.sh raw

# Download KITTI 3D Object
./data/download_datasets.sh object

# Download KITTI Odometry
./data/download_datasets.sh odometry

# Download Argoverse Tracking v1.0
./data/download_datasets.sh argoverse

The above scripts will download, unzip and store the respective datasets in the datasets directory.
