Leveraging multimodal information with recursive Bayesian filters improves performance and robustness of state estimation, as recursive filters can combine different modalities according to their uncertainties. Prior work has studied how to optimally fuse different sensor modalities with analytical state estimation algorithms. However, deriving the dynamics and measurement models along with their noise profile can be difficult or lead to intractable models. Differentiable filters provide a way to learn these models end-to-end while retaining the algorithmic structure of recursive filters. This can be especially helpful when working with sensor modalities that are high dimensional and have very different characteristics. In contact-rich manipulation, we want to combine visual sensing (which gives us global information) with tactile sensing (which gives us local information). In this paper, we study new differentiable filtering architectures to fuse heterogeneous sensor information. As case studies, we evaluate three tasks: two in planar pushing (simulated and real) and one in manipulating a kinematically constrained door (simulated). In extensive evaluations, we find that differentiable filters that leverage crossmodal sensor information reach comparable accuracies to unstructured LSTM models, while presenting interpretability benefits that may be important for safety-critical systems. We also release an open-source library for creating and training differentiable Bayesian filters in PyTorch, which can be found on our project website: https://sites.google.com/view/multimodalfilter

The huge advantage of in-pipe robots is that they are able to measure from inside the pipes, and to sense the geometry, appearance and radiometry directly. The downside is the inability to know precise, absolute position of the measurements in very l

The Tactical Driver Behavior modeling problem requires understanding of driver actions in complicated urban scenarios from a rich multi modal signals including video, LiDAR and CAN bus data streams. However, the majority of deep learning research is
focused either on learning the vehicle/environment state (sensor fusion) or the driver policy (from temporal data), but not both. Learning both tasks end-to-end offers the richest distillation of knowledge, but presents challenges in formulation and successful training. In this work, we propose promising first steps in this direction. Inspired by the gating mechanisms in LSTM, we propose gated recurrent fusion units (GRFU) that learn fusion weighting and temporal weighting simultaneously. We demonstrate its superior performance over multimodal and temporal baselines in supervised regression and classification tasks, all in the realm of autonomous navigation. We note a 10% improvement in the mAP score over state-of-the-art for tactical driver behavior classification in HDD dataset and a 20% drop in overall Mean squared error for steering action regression on TORCS dataset.
State estimation with sensors is essential for mobile robots. Due to different performance of sensors in different environments, how to fuse measurements of various sensors is a problem. In this paper, we propose a tightly coupled multi-sensor fusion
framework, Lvio-Fusion, which fuses stereo camera, Lidar, IMU, and GPS based on the graph optimization. Especially for urban traffic scenes, we introduce a segmented global pose graph optimization with GPS and loop-closure, which can eliminate accumulated drifts. Additionally, we creatively use a actor-critic method in reinforcement learning to adaptively adjust sensors weight. After training, actor-critic agent can provide the system better and dynamic sensors weight. We evaluate the performance of our system on public datasets and compare it with other state-of-the-art methods, which shows that the proposed method achieves high estimation accuracy and robustness to various environments. And our implementations are open source and highly scalable.
To navigate through urban roads, an automated vehicle must be able to perceive and recognize objects in a three-dimensional environment. A high-level contextual understanding of the surroundings is necessary to plan and execute accurate driving maneu
vers. This paper presents an approach to fuse different sensory information, Light Detection and Ranging (lidar) scans and camera images. The output of a convolutional neural network (CNN) is used as classifier to obtain the labels of the environment. The transference of semantic information between the labelled image and the lidar point cloud is performed in four steps: initially, we use heuristic methods to associate probabilities to all the semantic classes contained in the labelled images. Then, the lidar points are corrected to compensate for the vehicles motion given the difference between the timestamps of each lidar scan and camera image. In a third step, we calculate the pixel coordinate for the corresponding camera image. In the last step we perform the transfer of semantic information from the heuristic probability images to the lidar frame, while removing the lidar information that is not visible to the camera. We tested our approach in the Usyd Dataset cite{usyd_dataset}, obtaining qualitative and quantitative results that demonstrate the validity of our probabilistic sensory fusion approach.
This paper proposes a method for representation learning of multimodal data using contrastive losses. A traditional approach is to contrast different modalities to learn the information shared between them. However, that approach could fail to learn
the complementary synergies between modalities that might be useful for downstream tasks. Another approach is to concatenate all the modalities into a tuple and then contrast positive and negative tuple correspondences. However, that approach could consider only the stronger modalities while ignoring the weaker ones. To address these issues, we propose a novel contrastive learning objective, TupleInfoNCE. It contrasts tuples based not only on positive and negative correspondences but also by composing new negative tuples using modalities describing different scenes. Training with these additional negatives encourages the learning model to examine the correspondences among modalities in the same tuple, ensuring that weak modalities are not ignored. We provide a theoretical justification based on mutual information for why this approach works, and we propose a sample optimization algorithm to generate positive and negative samples to maximize training efficacy. We find that TupleInfoNCE significantly outperforms the previous state of the arts on three different downstream tasks.
