We present the WoodScape fisheye semantic segmentation challenge for autonomous driving which was held as part of the CVPR 2021 Workshop on Omnidirectional Computer Vision (OmniCV). This challenge is one of the first opportunities for the research community to evaluate the semantic segmentation techniques targeted for fisheye camera perception. Due to strong radial distortion standard models dont generalize well to fisheye images and hence the deformations in the visual appearance of objects and entities needs to be encoded implicitly or as explicit knowledge. This challenge served as a medium to investigate the challenges and new methodologies to handle the complexities with perception on fisheye images. The challenge was hosted on CodaLab and used the recently released WoodScape dataset comprising of 10k samples. In this paper, we provide a summary of the competition which attracted the participation of 71 global teams and a total of 395 submissions. The top teams recorded significantly improved mean IoU and accuracy scores over the baseline PSPNet with ResNet-50 backbone. We summarize the methods of winning algorithms and analyze the failure cases. We conclude by providing future directions for the research.

In this report, we introduce our real-time 2D object detection system for the realistic autonomous driving scenario. Our detector is built on a newly designed YOLO model, called YOLOX. On the Argoverse-HD dataset, our system achieves 41.0 streaming AP, which surpassed second place by 7.8/6.1 on detection-only track/fully track, respectively. Moreover, equipped with TensorRT, our model achieves the 30FPS inference speed with a high-resolution input size (e.g., 1440-2304). Code and models will be available at https://github.com/Megvii-BaseDetection/YOLOX

Within the context of autonomous driving, safety-related metrics for deep neural networks have been widely studied for image classification and object detection. In this paper, we further consider safety-aware correctness and robustness metrics specialized for semantic segmentation. The novelty of our proposal is to move beyond pixel-level metrics: Given two images with each having N pixels being class-flipped, the designed metrics should, depending on the clustering of pixels being class-flipped or the location of occurrence, reflect a different level of safety criticality. The result evaluated on an autonomous driving dataset demonstrates the validity and practicality of our proposed methodology.
Semantic segmentation is important for many real-world systems, e.g., autonomous vehicles, which predict the class of each pixel. Recently, deep networks achieved significant progress w.r.t. the mean Intersection-over Union (mIoU) with the cross-entropy loss. However, the cross-entropy loss can essentially ignore the difference of severity for an autonomous car with different wrong prediction mistakes. For example, predicting the car to the road is much more servery than recognize it as the bus. Targeting for this difficulty, we develop a Wasserstein training framework to explore the inter-class correlation by defining its ground metric as misclassification severity. The ground metric of Wasserstein distance can be pre-defined following the experience on a specific task. From the optimization perspective, we further propose to set the ground metric as an increasing function of the pre-defined ground metric. Furthermore, an adaptively learning scheme of the ground matrix is proposed to utilize the high-fidelity CARLA simulator. Specifically, we follow a reinforcement alternative learning scheme. The experiments on both CamVid and Cityscapes datasets evidenced the effectiveness of our Wasserstein loss. The SegNet, ENet, FCN and Deeplab networks can be adapted following a plug-in manner. We achieve significant improvements on the predefined important classes, and much longer continuous playtime in our simulator.
It is critical to predict the motion of surrounding vehicles for self-driving planning, especially in a socially compliant and flexible way. However, future prediction is challenging due to the interaction and uncertainty in driving behaviors. We propose planning-informed trajectory prediction (PiP) to tackle the prediction problem in the multi-agent setting. Our approach is differentiated from the traditional manner of prediction, which is only based on historical information and decoupled with planning. By informing the prediction process with the planning of ego vehicle, our method achieves the state-of-the-art performance of multi-agent forecasting on highway datasets. Moreover, our approach enables a novel pipeline which couples the prediction and planning, by conditioning PiP on multiple candidate trajectories of the ego vehicle, which is highly beneficial for autonomous driving in interactive scenarios.
