High-definition (HD) map change detection is the task of determining when sensor data and map data are no longer in agreement with one another due to real-world changes. We collect the first dataset for the task, which we entitle the Trust, but Verify (TbV) dataset, by mining thousands of hours of data from over 9 months of autonomous vehicle fleet operations. We present learning-based formulations for solving the problem in the bird's eye view and ego-view. Because real map changes are infrequent and vector maps are easy to synthetically manipulate, we lean on simulated data to train our model. Perhaps surprisingly, we show that such models can generalize to real world distributions. The dataset, consisting of maps and logs collected in six North American cities, is one of the largest AV datasets to date with more than 7.8 million images. We make the data available to the public at https://www.argoverse.org/av2.html#mapchange-link, along with code and models at https://github.com/johnwlambert/tbv under the the CC BY-NC-SA 4.0 license.

We introduce Argoverse 2 (AV2) - a collection of three datasets for perception and forecasting research in the self-driving domain. The annotated Sensor Dataset contains 1,000 sequences of multimodal data, encompassing high-resolution imagery from seven ring cameras, and two stereo cameras in addition to lidar point clouds, and 6-DOF map-aligned pose. Sequences contain 3D cuboid annotations for 26 object categories, all of which are sufficiently-sampled to support training and evaluation of 3D perception models. The Lidar Dataset contains 20,000 sequences of unlabeled lidar point clouds and map-aligned pose. This dataset is the largest ever collection of lidar sensor data and supports self-supervised learning and the emerging task of point cloud forecasting. Finally, the Motion Forecasting Dataset contains 250,000 scenarios mined for interesting and challenging interactions between the autonomous vehicle and other actors in each local scene. Models are tasked with the prediction of future motion for "scored actors" in each scenario and are provided with track histories that capture object location, heading, velocity, and category. In all three datasets, each scenario contains its own HD Map with 3D lane and crosswalk geometry - sourced from data captured in six distinct cities. We believe these datasets will support new and existing machine learning research problems in ways that existing datasets do not. All datasets are released under the CC BY-NC-SA 4.0 license.

Figure 1: We introduce datasets for 3D tracking and motion forecasting with rich maps for autonomous driving. Our 3D tracking dataset contains sequences of LiDAR measurements, 360 • RGB video, front-facing stereo (middle-right), and 6-dof localization. All sequences are aligned with maps containing lane center lines (magenta), driveable region (orange), and ground height. Sequences are annotated with 3D cuboid tracks (green). A wider map view is shown in the bottom-right.

Robust detection and tracking of objects is crucial for the deployment of autonomous vehicle technology. Image based benchmark datasets have driven development in computer vision tasks such as object detection, tracking and segmentation of agents in the environment. Most autonomous vehicles, however, carry a combination of cameras and range sensors such as lidar and radar. As machine learning based methods for detection and tracking become more prevalent, there is a need to train and evaluate such methods on datasets containing range sensor data along with images. In this work we present nuTonomy scenes (nuScenes), the first dataset to carry the full autonomous vehicle sensor suite: 6 cameras, 5 radars and 1 lidar, all with full 360 degree field of view. nuScenes comprises 1000 scenes, each 20s long and fully annotated with 3D bounding boxes for 23 classes and 8 attributes. It has 7x as many annotations and 100x as many images as the pioneering KITTI dataset. We define novel 3D detection and tracking metrics. We also provide careful dataset analysis as well as baselines for lidar and image based detection and tracking. Data, development kit and more information are available online 1 .

在鸟眼中学习强大的表现（BEV），以进行感知任务，这是趋势和吸引行业和学术界的广泛关注。大多数自动驾驶算法的常规方法在正面或透视视图中执行检测，细分，跟踪等。随着传感器配置变得越来越复杂，从不同的传感器中集成了多源信息，并在统一视图中代表功能至关重要。 BEV感知继承了几个优势，因为代表BEV中的周围场景是直观和融合友好的。对于BEV中的代表对象，对于随后的模块，如计划和/或控制是最可取的。 BEV感知的核心问题在于（a）如何通过从透视视图到BEV来通过视图转换来重建丢失的3D信息； （b）如何在BEV网格中获取地面真理注释； （c）如何制定管道以合并来自不同来源和视图的特征； （d）如何适应和概括算法作为传感器配置在不同情况下各不相同。在这项调查中，我们回顾了有关BEV感知的最新工作，并对不同解决方案进行了深入的分析。此外，还描述了该行业的BEV方法的几种系统设计。此外，我们推出了一套完整的实用指南，以提高BEV感知任务的性能，包括相机，激光雷达和融合输入。最后，我们指出了该领域的未来研究指示。我们希望该报告能阐明社区，并鼓励对BEV感知的更多研究。我们保留一个活跃的存储库来收集最新的工作，并在https://github.com/openperceptionx/bevperception-survey-recipe上提供一包技巧的工具箱。

对于与行人一起运行的移动机器人，对地面基础设施（例如道路和街道交叉路口）进行了牢固的分类。尽管许多语义分割数据集可用于自动驾驶汽车，但在此类数据集中训练的模型在部署在行人空间中的机器人上时表现出较大的域间隙。从行人角度录制的手动注释图像既昂贵又耗时。为了克服这一挑战，我们提出了TrackletMapper，这是一个注释地面类型的框架，例如人行道，道路和街道交叉点，而无需进行人类注销的数据。为此，我们将机器人自我trajectory和其他交通参与者的路径投射到自我视图相机图像中，为多种类型的接地表面创建稀疏的语义注释，从中可以从中训练地面分段模型。我们进一步表明，该模型可以通过汇总地面图并将其投影到相机图像中，从而自行启动，从而获得额外的性能优势，从而与稀疏的踪迹注释相比，创建了一组密集的训练注释。我们在定性和定量上证明了我们在一个新型的大型数据集上，用于在行人区域运营的移动机器人。代码和数据集将在http://trackletmapper.cs.uni-freiburg.de上提供。

现代计算机视觉已超越了互联网照片集的领域，并进入了物理世界，通过非结构化的环境引导配备摄像头的机器人和自动驾驶汽车。为了使这些体现的代理与现实世界对象相互作用，相机越来越多地用作深度传感器，重建了各种下游推理任务的环境。机器学习辅助的深度感知或深度估计会预测图像中每个像素的距离。尽管已经在深入估算中取得了令人印象深刻的进步，但仍然存在重大挑战：（1）地面真相深度标签很难大规模收集，（2）通常认为相机信息是已知的，但通常是不可靠的，并且（3）限制性摄像机假设很常见，即使在实践中使用了各种各样的相机类型和镜头。在本论文中，我们专注于放松这些假设，并描述将相机变成真正通用深度传感器的最终目标的贡献。

车辆到所有（V2X）通信技术使车辆与附近环境中许多其他实体之间的协作可以从根本上改善自动驾驶的感知系统。但是，缺乏公共数据集极大地限制了协作感知的研究进度。为了填补这一空白，我们提出了V2X-SIM，这是一个针对V2X辅助自动驾驶的全面模拟多代理感知数据集。 V2X-SIM提供：（1）\ hl {Multi-Agent}传感器记录来自路边单元（RSU）和多种能够协作感知的车辆，（2）多模式传感器流，可促进多模式感知和多模式感知和（3）支持各种感知任务的各种基础真理。同时，我们在三个任务（包括检测，跟踪和细分）上为最先进的协作感知算法提供了一个开源测试台，并为最先进的协作感知算法提供了基准。 V2X-SIM试图在现实数据集广泛使用之前刺激自动驾驶的协作感知研究。我们的数据集和代码可在\ url {https://ai4ce.github.io/v2x-sim/}上获得。

Maps play a key role in rapidly developing area of autonomous driving. We survey the literature for different map representations and find that while the world is three-dimensional, it is common to rely on 2D map representations in order to meet real-time constraints. We believe that high levels of situation awareness require a 3D representation as well as the inclusion of semantic information. We demonstrate that our recently presented hierarchical 3D grid mapping framework UFOMap meets the real-time constraints. Furthermore, we show how it can be used to efficiently support more complex functions such as calculating the occluded parts of space and accumulating the output from a semantic segmentation network.

无监督的域适应性通过将模型从标记的源域转移到未标记的目标域来证明减轻域移动的巨大潜力。尽管无监督的域适应已应用于各种复杂的视力任务，但只有很少的作品专注于自动驾驶的车道检测。这可以归因于缺乏公开可用的数据集。为了促进这些方向的研究，我们提出了Carlane，Carlane是用于2D车道检测的3条SIM到真实域的适应基准。 Carlane包括单目标数据集Molane和Tulane以及多目标数据集Mulane。这些数据集由三个不同的域构建，这些域涵盖了不同的场景，并包含163K唯一图像，其中118K被注释。此外，我们评估和报告系统的基线，包括我们自己的方法，这些方法基于典型的跨域自学学习。我们发现，与完全监督的基线相比，评估域适应方法的假阳性和假阴性率很高。这肯定了对卡莱恩等基准的必要性，以进一步加强无监督的领域适应道的研究。 Carlane，所有评估的模型和相应的实现都可以在https://carlanebench.github.io上公开获得。

Autonomous driving requires efficient reasoning about the location and appearance of the different agents in the scene, which aids in downstream tasks such as object detection, object tracking, and path planning. The past few years have witnessed a surge in approaches that combine the different taskbased modules of the classic self-driving stack into an End-toEnd(E2E) trainable learning system. These approaches replace perception, prediction, and sensor fusion modules with a single contiguous module with shared latent space embedding, from which one extracts a human-interpretable representation of the scene. One of the most popular representations is the Birds-eye View (BEV), which expresses the location of different traffic participants in the ego vehicle frame from a top-down view. However, a BEV does not capture the chromatic appearance information of the participants. To overcome this limitation, we propose a novel representation that captures various traffic participants appearance and occupancy information from an array of monocular cameras covering 360 deg field of view (FOV). We use a learned image embedding of all camera images to generate a BEV of the scene at any instant that captures both appearance and occupancy of the scene, which can aid in downstream tasks such as object tracking and executing language-based commands. We test the efficacy of our approach on synthetic dataset generated from CARLA. The code, data set, and results can be found at https://rebrand.ly/APP OCC-results.

The research community has increasing interest in autonomous driving research, despite the resource intensity of obtaining representative real world data. Existing selfdriving datasets are limited in the scale and variation of the environments they capture, even though generalization within and between operating regions is crucial to the overall viability of the technology. In an effort to help align the research community's contributions with real-world selfdriving problems, we introduce a new large-scale, high quality, diverse dataset. Our new dataset consists of 1150 scenes that each span 20 seconds, consisting of well synchronized and calibrated high quality LiDAR and camera data captured across a range of urban and suburban geographies. It is 15x more diverse than the largest cam-era+LiDAR dataset available based on our proposed geographical coverage metric. We exhaustively annotated this data with 2D (camera image) and 3D (LiDAR) bounding boxes, with consistent identifiers across frames. Finally, we provide strong baselines for 2D as well as 3D detection and tracking tasks. We further study the effects of dataset size and generalization across geographies on 3D detection methods.

以视觉为中心的BEV感知由于其固有的优点，最近受到行业和学术界的关注，包括展示世界自然代表和融合友好。随着深度学习的快速发展，已经提出了许多方法来解决以视觉为中心的BEV感知。但是，最近没有针对这个小说和不断发展的研究领域的调查。为了刺激其未来的研究，本文对以视觉为中心的BEV感知及其扩展进行了全面调查。它收集并组织了最近的知识，并对常用算法进行了系统的综述和摘要。它还为几项BEV感知任务提供了深入的分析和比较结果，从而促进了未来作品的比较并激发了未来的研究方向。此外，还讨论了经验实现细节并证明有利于相关算法的开发。

We propose a model that, given multi-view camera data (left), infers semantics directly in the bird's-eye-view (BEV) coordinate frame (right). We show vehicle segmentation (blue), drivable area (orange), and lane segmentation (green). These BEV predictions are then projected back onto input images (dots on the left).

摄像机是自动化驱动系统中的主要传感器。它们提供高信息密度，并对检测为人类视野提供的道路基础设施线索最优。环绕式摄像机系统通常包括具有190 {\ DEG} +视野的四个鱼眼相机，覆盖在车辆周围的整个360 {\ DEG}集中在近场传感上。它们是低速，高精度和近距离传感应用的主要传感器，如自动停车，交通堵塞援助和低速应急制动。在这项工作中，我们提供了对这种视觉系统的详细调查，在可以分解为四个模块化组件的架构中，设置调查即可识别，重建，重建和重组。我们共同称之为4R架构。我们讨论每个组件如何完成特定方面，并提供一个位置论证，即它们可以协同组织以形成用于低速自动化的完整感知系统。我们通过呈现来自以前的作品的结果，并通过向此类系统提出架构提案来支持此参数。定性结果在视频中呈现在HTTPS://youtu.be/ae8bcof7777uy中。

最近已经提出了3D车道检测的方法，以解决许多自动驾驶场景（上坡/下坡，颠簸等）中不准确的车道布局问题。先前的工作在复杂的情况下苦苦挣扎，因为它们对前视图和鸟类视图（BEV）之间的空间转换以及缺乏现实数据集的简单设计。在这些问题上，我们介绍了Persformer：具有新型基于变压器的空间特征变换模块的端到端单眼3D车道检测器。我们的模型通过参考摄像头参数来参与相关的前视本地区域来生成BEV功能。 Persformer采用统一的2D/3D锚设计和辅助任务，以同时检测2D/3D车道，从而提高功能一致性并分享多任务学习的好处。此外，我们发布了第一个大型现实世界3D车道数据集之一：OpenLane，具有高质量的注释和场景多样性。 OpenLane包含200,000帧，超过880,000个实例级别的车道，14个车道类别，以及场景标签和封闭式对象注释，以鼓励开发车道检测和更多与工业相关的自动驾驶方法。我们表明，在新的OpenLane数据集和Apollo 3D Lane合成数据集中，Persformer在3D车道检测任务中的表现明显优于竞争基线，并且在OpenLane上的2D任务中也与最新的算法相当。该项目页面可在https://github.com/openperceptionx/persformer_3dlane上找到，OpenLane数据集可在https://github.com/openperceptionx/openlane上提供。

地理定位的概念是指确定地球上的某些“实体”的位置的过程，通常使用全球定位系统（GPS）坐标。感兴趣的实体可以是图像，图像序列，视频，卫星图像，甚至图像中可见的物体。由于GPS标记媒体的大规模数据集由于智能手机和互联网而迅速变得可用，而深入学习已经上升以提高机器学习模型的性能能力，因此由于其显着影响而出现了视觉和对象地理定位的领域广泛的应用，如增强现实，机器人，自驾驶车辆，道路维护和3D重建。本文提供了对涉及图像的地理定位的全面调查，其涉及从捕获图像（图像地理定位）或图像内的地理定位对象（对象地理定位）的地理定位的综合调查。我们将提供深入的研究，包括流行算法的摘要，对所提出的数据集的描述以及性能结果的分析来说明每个字段的当前状态。

Computer vision applications in intelligent transportation systems (ITS) and autonomous driving (AD) have gravitated towards deep neural network architectures in recent years. While performance seems to be improving on benchmark datasets, many real-world challenges are yet to be adequately considered in research. This paper conducted an extensive literature review on the applications of computer vision in ITS and AD, and discusses challenges related to data, models, and complex urban environments. The data challenges are associated with the collection and labeling of training data and its relevance to real world conditions, bias inherent in datasets, the high volume of data needed to be processed, and privacy concerns. Deep learning (DL) models are commonly too complex for real-time processing on embedded hardware, lack explainability and generalizability, and are hard to test in real-world settings. Complex urban traffic environments have irregular lighting and occlusions, and surveillance cameras can be mounted at a variety of angles, gather dirt, shake in the wind, while the traffic conditions are highly heterogeneous, with violation of rules and complex interactions in crowded scenarios. Some representative applications that suffer from these problems are traffic flow estimation, congestion detection, autonomous driving perception, vehicle interaction, and edge computing for practical deployment. The possible ways of dealing with the challenges are also explored while prioritizing practical deployment.
