AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing bird's-eye view feature generation methods are difficult to effectively accommodate inputs from different modalities and fail to construct a unified feature representation, which affects the perception accuracy of downstream autonomous driving tasks.

Method used

By extracting modal features from multiple vehicle sensors, utilizing bird's-eye view query vectors and cross-attention mechanisms, multimodal information is fused to generate high-quality bird's-eye view features, supporting arbitrary modal inputs, including vehicle cameras, LiDAR, and millimeter-wave radar.

Benefits of technology

It achieves effective interaction and fusion of multimodal information, generates high-quality bird's-eye view features, improves the perception accuracy and robustness of downstream autonomous driving tasks, and adapts to different scenarios and sensor changes.

Abstract

The disclosure provides a bird's eye view feature generation method based on multi-modal fusion, comprising: extracting all vehicle-mounted sensor collection information of the current time of the vehicle to obtain at least first modal collection information and second modal collection information; using a first modal feature extraction network to extract first modal features of the first modal collection information, and using a second modal feature extraction network to extract second modal features of the second modal collection information; obtaining the bird's eye view feature after initialization of the current time based on the historical time bird's eye view feature; obtaining the bird's eye view feature with first modal feature information based on the first modal features and the bird's eye view feature after initialization of the current time; obtaining the bird's eye view feature with second modal feature information based on the bird's eye view feature with first modal feature information and the second modal features; and generating the bird's eye view feature with multi-modal fusion information. The disclosure also provides an electronic device, a readable storage medium and a program product.
