433 iccv-2013-Understanding High-Level Semantics by Modeling Traffic Patterns


Source: pdf

Author: Hongyi Zhang, Andreas Geiger, Raquel Urtasun

Abstract: In this paper, we are interested in understanding the semantics of outdoor scenes in the context of autonomous driving. Towards this goal, we propose a generative model of 3D urban scenes which is able to reason not only about the geometry and objects present in the scene, but also about the high-level semantics in the form of traffic patterns. We found that a small number of patterns is sufficient to model the vast majority of traffic scenes and show how these patterns can be learned. As evidenced by our experiments, this high-level reasoning significantly improves the overall scene estimation as well as the vehicle-to-lane association when compared to state-of-the-art approaches [10].

Robustness against Parameter Variations: We depict the robustness of our method against varying three parameters: the logarithm weight γ of the heading probability, the variance of the Gaussian kernel ∆σ2h in the transition probability of h, and the scaling constant ξ on the uncertainty of detections. The black dot marks the parameter setting used in all of our experiments, as reported in Table 3.
