文摘In the dynamic scene of autonomous vehicles,the depth estimation of monocular cameras often faces the problem of inaccurate edge depth estimation.To solve this problem,we propose an unsupervised monocular depth estimation model based on edge enhancement,which is specifically aimed at the depth perception challenge in dynamic scenes.The model consists of two core networks:a deep prediction network and a motion estimation network,both of which adopt an encoder-decoder architecture.The depth prediction network is based on the U-Net structure of ResNet18,which is responsible for generating the depth map of the scene.The motion estimation network is based on the U-Net structure of Flow-Net,focusing on the motion estimation of dynamic targets.In the decoding stage of the motion estimation network,we innovatively introduce an edge-enhanced decoder,which integrates a convolutional block attention module(CBAM)in the decoding process to enhance the recognition ability of the edge features of moving objects.In addition,we also designed a strip convolution module to improve the model’s capture efficiency of discrete moving targets.To further improve the performance of the model,we propose a novel edge regularization method based on the Laplace operator,which effectively accelerates the convergence process of themodel.Experimental results on the KITTI and Cityscapes datasets show that compared with the current advanced dynamic unsupervised monocular model,the proposed model has a significant improvement in depth estimation accuracy and convergence speed.Specifically,the rootmean square error(RMSE)is reduced by 4.8%compared with the DepthMotion algorithm,while the training convergence speed is increased by 36%,which shows the superior performance of the model in the depth estimation task in dynamic scenes.

文摘Semantic segmentation in street scenes is a crucial technology for autonomous driving to analyze the surrounding environment.In street scenes,issues such as high image resolution caused by a large viewpoints and differences in object scales lead to a decline in real-time performance and difficulties in multi-scale feature extraction.To address this,we propose a bilateral-branch real-time semantic segmentationmethod based on semantic information distillation(BSDNet)for street scene images.The BSDNet consists of a Feature Conversion Convolutional Block(FCB),a Semantic Information Distillation Module(SIDM),and a Deep Aggregation Atrous Convolution Pyramid Pooling(DASP).FCB reduces the semantic gap between the backbone and the semantic branch.SIDM extracts high-quality semantic information fromthe Transformer branch to reduce computational costs.DASP aggregates information lost in atrous convolutions,effectively capturingmulti-scale objects.Extensive experiments conducted on Cityscapes,CamVid,and ADE20K,achieving an accuracy of 81.7% Mean Intersection over Union(mIoU)at 70.6 Frames Per Second(FPS)on Cityscapes,demonstrate that our method achieves a better balance between accuracy and inference speed.

文摘Today,autonomous mobile robots are widely used in all walks of life.Autonomous navigation,as a basic capability of robots,has become a research hotspot.Classical navigation techniques,which rely on pre-built maps,struggle to cope with complex and dynamic environments.With the development of artificial intelligence,learning-based navigation technology have emerged.Instead of relying on pre-built maps,the agent perceives the environment and make decisions through visual observation,enabling end-to-end navigation.A key challenge is to enhance the generalization ability of the agent in unfamiliar environments.To tackle this challenge,it is necessary to endow the agent with spatial intelligence.Spatial intelligence refers to the ability of the agent to transform visual observations into insights,in-sights into understanding,and understanding into actions.To endow the agent with spatial intelligence,relevant research uses scene graph to represent the environment.We refer to this method as scene graph-based object goal navigation.In this paper,we concentrate on scene graph,offering formal description,computational framework of object goal navigation.We provide a comprehensive summary of the meth-ods for constructing and applying scene graph.Additionally,we present experimental evidence that highlights the critical role of scene graph in improving navigation success.This paper also delineates promising research directions,all aimed at sharpening the focus on scene graph.Overall,this paper shows how scene graph endows the agent with spatial intelligence,aiming to promote the importance of scene graph in the field of intelligent navigation.

文摘Self-supervised monocular depth estimation has emerged as a major research focus in recent years,primarily due to the elimination of ground-truth depth dependence.However,the prevailing architectures in this domain suffer from inherent limitations:existing pose network branches infer camera ego-motion exclusively under static-scene and Lambertian-surface assumptions.These assumptions are often violated in real-world scenarios due to dynamic objects,non-Lambertian reflectance,and unstructured background elements,leading to pervasive artifacts such as depth discontinuities(“holes”),structural collapse,and ambiguous reconstruction.To address these challenges,we propose a novel framework that integrates scene dynamic pose estimation into the conventional self-supervised depth network,enhancing its ability to model complex scene dynamics.Our contributions are threefold:(1)a pixel-wise dynamic pose estimation module that jointly resolves the pose transformations of moving objects and localized scene perturbations;(2)a physically-informed loss function that couples dynamic pose and depth predictions,designed to mitigate depth errors arising from high-speed distant objects and geometrically inconsistent motion profiles;(3)an efficient SE(3)transformation parameterization that streamlines network complexity and temporal pre-processing.Extensive experiments on the KITTI and NYU-V2 benchmarks show that our framework achieves state-of-the-art performance in both quantitative metrics and qualitative visual fidelity,significantly improving the robustness and generalization of monocular depth estimation under dynamic conditions.

文摘Video action recognition(VAR)aims to analyze dynamic behaviors in videos and achieve semantic understanding.VAR faces challenges such as temporal dynamics,action-scene coupling,and the complexity of human interactions.Existing methods can be categorized into motion-level,event-level,and story-level ones based on spatiotemporal granularity.However,single-modal approaches struggle to capture complex behavioral semantics and human factors.Therefore,in recent years,vision-language models(VLMs)have been introduced into this field,providing new research perspectives for VAR.In this paper,we systematically review spatiotemporal hierarchical methods in VAR and explore how the introduction of large models has advanced the field.Additionally,we propose the concept of“Factor”to identify and integrate key information from both visual and textual modalities,enhancing multimodal alignment.We also summarize various multimodal alignment methods and provide in-depth analysis and insights into future research directions.
