Adverse weather conditions are very challenging for autonomous driving because most of the state-of-the-art sensors stop working reliably under these conditions. In order to develop robust sensors and algorithms, tests with current sensors in defined weather conditions are crucial for determining the impact of bad weather for each sensor. This work describes a testing and evaluation methodology that helps to benchmark novel sensor technologies and compare them to state-of-the-art sensors. As an example, gated imaging is compared to standard imaging under foggy conditions. It is shown that gated imaging outperforms state-of-the-art standard passive imaging due to time-synchronized active illumination.

Given an image or a video captured from a monocular camera, amodal layout estimation is the task of predicting semantics and occupancy in birds eye view. The term amodal implies we also reason about entities in the scene that are occluded or truncate
d in image space. While several recent efforts have tackled this problem, there is a lack of standardization in task specification, datasets, and evaluation protocols. We address these gaps with AutoLay, a dataset and benchmark for amodal layout estimation from monocular images. AutoLay encompasses driving imagery from two popular datasets: KITTI and Argoverse. In addition to fine-grained attributes such as lanes, sidewalks, and vehicles, we also provide semantically annotated 3D point clouds. We implement several baselines and bleeding edge approaches, and release our data and code.
Millimeter-wave (mmWave) radars are being increasingly integrated in commercial vehicles to support new Adaptive Driver Assisted Systems (ADAS) features that require accurate location and Doppler velocity estimates of objects, independent of environm
ental conditions. To explore radar-based ADAS applications, we have updated our test-bed with Texas Instruments 4-chip cascaded FMCW radar (TIDEP-01012) that forms a non-uniform 2D MIMO virtual array. In this paper, we develop the necessary received signal models for applying different direction of arrival (DoA) estimation algorithms and experimentally validating their performance on formed virtual array under controlled scenarios. To test the robustness of mmWave radars under adverse weather conditions, we collected raw radar dataset (I-Q samples post demodulated) for various objects by a driven vehicle-mounted platform, specifically for snowy and foggy situations where cameras are largely ineffective. Initial results from radar imaging algorithms to this dataset are presented.
LiDAR odometry plays an important role in self-localization and mapping for autonomous navigation, which is usually treated as a scan registration problem. Although having achieved promising performance on KITTI odometry benchmark, the conventional s
earching tree-based approach still has the difficulty in dealing with the large scale point cloud efficiently. The recent spherical range image-based method enjoys the merits of fast nearest neighbor search by spherical mapping. However, it is not very effective to deal with the ground points nearly parallel to LiDAR beams. To address these issues, we propose a novel efficient LiDAR odometry approach by taking advantage of both non-ground spherical range image and birds-eye-view map for ground points. Moreover, a range adaptive method is introduced to robustly estimate the local surface normal. Additionally, a very fast and memory-efficient model update scheme is proposed to fuse the points and their corresponding normals at different time-stamps. We have conducted extensive experiments on KITTI odometry benchmark, whose promising results demonstrate that our proposed approach is effective.
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.
Segmenting each moving object instance in a scene is essential for many applications. But like many other computer vision tasks, this task performs well in optimal weather, but then adverse weather tends to fail. To be robust in weather conditions, t
he usual way is to train network in data of given weather pattern or to fuse multiple sensors. We focus on a new possibility, that is, to improve its resilience to weather interference through the networks structural design. First, we propose a novel FPN structure called RiWFPN with a progressive top-down interaction and attention refinement module. RiWFPN can directly replace other FPN structures to improve the robustness of the network in non-optimal weather conditions. Then we extend SOLOV2 to capture temporal information in video to learn motion information, and propose a moving object instance segmentation network with RiWFPN called RiWNet. Finally, in order to verify the effect of moving instance segmentation in different weather disturbances, we propose a VKTTI-moving dataset which is a moving instance segmentation dataset based on the VKTTI dataset, taking into account different weather scenes such as rain, fog, sunset, morning as well as overcast. The experiment proves how RiWFPN improves the networks resilience to adverse weather effects compared to other FPN structures. We compare RiWNet to several other state-of-the-art methods in some challenging datasets, and RiWNet shows better performance especially under adverse weather conditions.
