This work presents an extension of graph-based SLAM methods to exploit the potential of 3D laser scans for loop detection. Every high-dimensional point cloud is replaced by a compact global descriptor, whereby a trained detector decides…

One of the greatest challenges towards fully autonomous cars is the understanding of complex and dynamic scenes. Such understanding is needed for planning of maneuvers, especially those that are particularly frequent such as lane changes.…

Learning 3D scene geometry and semantics from images is a core challenge in computer vision and a key capability for autonomous driving. Since large-scale 3D annotation is prohibitively expensive, recent work explores self-supervised…

Despite having achieved real-time performance in mesh construction, most of the current LiDAR odometry and meshing methods may struggle to deal with complex scenes due to relying on explicit meshing schemes. They are usually sensitive to…

Robotic perception is currently at a cross-roads between modern methods, which operate in an efficient latent space, and classical methods, which are mathematically founded and provide interpretable, trustworthy results. In this paper, we…

Drift-free localization is essential for autonomous vehicles. In this paper, we address the problem by proposing a filter-based framework, which integrates the visual-inertial odometry and the measurements of the features in the pre-built…

In order to successfully perform tasks specified by natural language instructions, an artificial agent operating in a visual world needs to map words, concepts, and actions from the instruction to visual elements in its environment. This…

Neural distance fields offer a compact and continuous representation of 3D geometry, making them attractive for incremental LiDAR mapping. However, their online optimization is vulnerable to catastrophic forgetting, where new observations…

European satellite missions Sentinel-1 (S1) and Sentinel-2 (S2) provide at highspatial resolution and high revisit time, respectively, radar and optical imagesthat support a wide range of Earth surface monitoring tasks such as LandUse/Land…

Loop closure can effectively correct the accumulated error in robot localization, which plays a critical role in the long-term navigation of the robot. Traditional appearance-based methods rely on local features and are prone to failure in…

Neural implicit representations are drawing a lot of attention from the robotics community recently, as they are expressive, continuous and compact. However, city-scale continual implicit dense mapping based on sparse LiDAR input is still…

While most people associate LiDAR primarily with its ability to measure distances and provide geometric information about the environment (via point clouds), LiDAR also captures additional data, including reflectivity or intensity values.…

This paper addresses the problem of building augmented metric representations of scenes with semantic information from RGB-D images. We propose a complete framework to create an enhanced map representation of the environment with…

Accurate and robust simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) is crucial for autonomous mobile systems, typically achieved by leveraging the geometric features of the environment. Incorporating semantics provides a richer scene…

3D object detection task from lidar or camera sensors is essential for autonomous driving. Pioneer attempts at multi-modality fusion complement the sparse lidar point clouds with rich semantic texture information from images at the cost of…

Modeling crisp logical regularities is crucial in semantic parsing, making it difficult for neural models with no task-specific prior knowledge to achieve good results. In this paper, we introduce data recombination, a novel framework for…

In this work we present a novel end-to-end framework for tracking and classifying a robot's surroundings in complex, dynamic and only partially observable real-world environments. The approach deploys a recurrent neural network to filter an…

This work addresses the task of open world semantic segmentation using RGBD sensing to discover new semantic classes over time. Although there are many types of objects in the real-word, current semantic segmentation methods make a closed…

Modeling and understanding the environment is an essential task for autonomous driving. In addition to the detection of objects, in complex traffic scenarios the motion of other road participants is of special interest. Therefore, we…

Finding correspondences between images or 3D scans is at the heart of many computer vision and image retrieval applications and is often enabled by matching local keypoint descriptors. Various learning approaches have been applied in the…
