Scene understanding for automated driving requires accurate detection and classification of objects and other traffic participants. 1. Object type classification for automotive radar has greatly improved with recent deep learning (DL) solutions, however these developments have mostly focused on the classification accuracy. The processing pipeline from the radar time signal to the part of the radar spectrum that is used as input to the NN is depicted in Fig. Available: , AEB Car-to-Car Test Protocol, 2020. Moreover, it boosts the two-wheeler and pedestrian test accuracy with an absolute increase of 77%65%=12% and 87.4%80.4%=7%, respectively. 2020 IEEE/CVF Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition Workshops (CVPRW). This paper introduces the first true imaging-radar dataset for a diverse urban driving environments, with resolution matching that of lidar, and shows an unsupervised pretraining algorithm for deep neural networks to detect moving vehicles in radar data with limited ground-truth labels. Bosch Center for Artificial Intelligence,Germany. This paper presents an novel object type classification method for automotive A millimeter-wave radar classification method based on deep learning is proposed, which uses the ability of convolutional neural networks (CNN) method to automatically extract feature data, so as to replace most of the complex processes of traditional radar signal processing chain. (b). Max-pooling (MaxPool): kernel size. participants accurately. (or is it just me), Smithsonian Privacy We find that deep radar classifiers maintain high-confidences for ambiguous, difficult samples, e.g. Unfortunately, DL classifiers are characterized as black-box systems which output severely over-confident predictions, leading downstream decision-making systems to false conclusions with possibly catastrophic consequences. distance should be used for measurement-to-track association, in, T.Elsken, J.H. Metzen, and F.Hutter, Neural architecture search: A In addition to high accuracy, it is crucial for decision making in autonomous vehicles to evaluate the reliability of the predictions; however, decisions of DL networks are non-transparent. The proposed method can be used for example to improve automatic emergency braking or collision avoidance systems. Scene understanding for automated driving requires accurate detection and classification of objects and other traffic participants. range-azimuth information on the radar reflection level is used to extract a It fills This paper proposes a multi-input classifier based on convolutional neural network (CNN) to reduce the amount of computation and improve the classification performance using the frequency modulated continuous wave (FMCW) radar. Automotive radar has shown great potential as a sensor for driver assistance systems due to its robustness to weather and light conditions, but reliable classification of object types in real time has proved to be very challenging. 2) We propose a hybrid model (DeepHybrid) that jointly processes the objects spectrum (spectral ROI) and reflection attributes (RCS of associated reflections). This work demonstrates a possible solution: 1) A data preprocessing stage extracts sparse regions of interest (ROIs) from the radar spectra based on the detected and associated radar reflections. Each Conv and FC is followed by a rectified linear unit (ReLU) function, with the exception of the last FC layer, where a softmax function comes after. The goal is to extract the spectrums region of interest (ROI) that corresponds to the object to be classified. The ROI is centered around the maximum peak of the associated reflections and clipped to 3232 bins, which usually includes all associated patches. 2018 IEEE/CVF Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition. E.NCAP, AEB VRU Test Protocol, 2020. Deep learning (DL) has recently attracted increasing interest to improve object type classification for automotive radar. W.Malik, and U.Lbbert, Pedestrian classification with a 79 ghz Then, different attributes of the reflections are computed, e.g.range, Doppler velocity, azimuth angle, and RCS. This paper proposes a multi-input classifier based on convolutional neural network (CNN) to reduce the amount of computation and improve the classification performance using the frequency modulated continuous wave (FMCW) radar. 5) NAS is used to automatically find a high-performing and resource-efficient NN. The capability of a deep convolutional neural network (CNN) combined with three types of data augmentation operations in SAR target recognition is investigated, showing that it is a practical approach for target recognition in challenging conditions of target translation, random speckle noise, and missing pose. NAS itself is a research field on its own; an overview can be found in [21]. Therefore, the NN marked with the red dot is not optimal w.r.t.the number of MACs. The measurements cover 573, 223, 689 and 178 tracks labeled as car, pedestrian, overridable and two-wheeler, respectively. Compared to methods where the angular spectrum is computed for all range-Doppler bins, our method requires lower computational effort, since the angles are estimated only for the detected reflections. / Azimuth This paper introduces the first true imaging-radar dataset for a diverse urban driving environments, with resolution matching that of lidar, and shows an unsupervised pretraining algorithm for deep neural networks to detect moving vehicles in radar data with limited ground-truth labels. samples, e.g. We propose to apply deep Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) directly to regions-of-interest (ROI) in the radar spectrum and thereby achieve an accurate classification of different objects in a scene. One frame corresponds to one coherent processing interval. network exploits the specific characteristics of radar reflection data: It This work introduces Cityscapes, a benchmark suite and large-scale dataset to train and test approaches for pixel-level and instance-level semantic labeling, and exceeds previous attempts in terms of dataset size, annotation richness, scene variability, and complexity. Our proposed approach works with several objects in the FoV of the radar sensor, and can still utilize the radar spectrum, since the spectral ROI for each object is determined. Due to the small number of raw data automotive radar datasets and the low resolution of such radar sensors, automotive radar object detection has been little explored with deep learning models in comparison to camera and lidar- based approaches. Compared to methods where the complete angular spectrum is computed for all bins in the r,v-spectrum, we need to estimate the angle only for the detected reflections, which is computationally cheaper. The capability of a deep convolutional neural network (CNN) combined with three types of data augmentation operations in SAR target recognition is investigated, showing that it is a practical approach for target recognition in challenging conditions of target translation, random speckle noise, and missing pose. A hybrid model (DeepHybrid) is presented that receives both radar spectra and reflection attributes as inputs, e.g. We choose a size of 30 to ensure a fixed-size input, which is typically larger than the number of associated reflections, and set the remaining values to zero. in the radar sensor's FoV is considered, and no angular information is used. The metallic objects are a coke can, corner reflectors, and different metal sections that are short enough to fit between the wheels. This paper presents an novel object type classification method for automotive applications which uses deep learning with radar reflections. 5 (b) shows the Pareto front of mean accuracy vs. number of MACs, where the architecture marked with the red dot is the same as in Fig. The proposed approach automatically captures the intricate properties of the radar returns in order to minimize false alarms and fuse information from both the time-frequency and range domains. The measurement scenarios should cover typical road traffic situations, as described by Euro NCAP, for more details see [18, 19]. In comparison, the reflection branch model, i.e.the reflection branch followed by the two FC layers, see Fig. The RCS is computed by taking the signal strength of the detected reflection and correcting it by the range-dependent dampening and the two-way antenna gain in the azimuth direction. Deep learning (DL) has recently attracted increasing interest to improve object type classification for automotive radar.In addition to high accuracy, it is crucial for decision making in autonomous vehicles to evaluate the reliability of the predictions; however, decisions of DL networks are non-transparent. Before employing DL solutions in safety-critical applications, such as automated driving, an indispensable prerequisite is the accurate quantification of the classifiers' reliability. reinforcement learning, Keep off the Grass: Permissible Driving Routes from Radar with Weak We report the mean over the 10 resulting confusion matrices.

Abstract:Scene understanding for automated driving requires accurate detection and classification of objects and other traffic participants. Comparing the architectures of the automatically- and manually-found NN (see Fig. parti Annotating automotive radar data is a difficult task. Note that the manually-designed architecture depicted in Fig. Recurrent Neural Network Ensembles, Deep Learning Classification of 3.5 GHz Band Spectrograms with We identify deep learning challenges that are specific to radar classification and introduce a set of novel mechanisms that lead to significant improvements in object classification performance compared to simpler classifiers. Compared to these related works, our method is characterized by the following aspects: The paper illustrates that neural architecture search (NAS) algorithms can be used to automatically search for such a NN for radar data.

An ablation study analyzes the impact of the proposed global context Convolutional long short-term memory networks for doppler-radar based yields an almost one order of magnitude smaller NN than the manually-designed The authors of [6, 7] take the radar spectrum into account to compute additional features for the classification, and [8] uses feature extractors known from vision to apply them on the radar spectrum. A deep neural network approach that parses wireless signals in the WiFi frequencies to estimate 2D poses through walls despite never trained on such scenarios, and shows that it is almost as accurate as the vision-based system used to train it. Comparing search strategies is beyond the scope of this paper (cf.

Illustration of the complete range-azimuth spectrum of the scene and extracted example regions-of-interest (ROI) on the right of the figure. We identify deep learning challenges that are specific to radar classification and introduce a set of novel mechanisms that lead to significant improvements in object classification performance compared to simpler classifiers. If there is a large object, e.g.a pedestrian, appearing in front of the ego-vehicle, it should detect and classify the object correctly and brake automatically until it comes to a standstill. In order to associate reflections to objects, the angles (directions of arrival (DOA)) of the reflections have to be determined. radar cross-section, and improves the classification performance compared to models using only spectra.

Moreover, we can use the k,l- or r,v-spectra for classification, but still use the azimuth information in addition for association. The range-azimuth spectra are used by a CNN to classify different kinds of stationary targets in [14]. This manual process optimized only for the mean validation accuracy, and there was no constraint on the number of parameters this NN can have. features.

This paper copes with the clustering of all these reflections into appropriate groups in order to exploit the advantages of multidimensional object size estimation and object classification. We identify deep learning challenges that are specific to radar classification and introduce a set of novel mechanisms that lead to significant improvements in object classification performance compared to simpler classifiers. All patches are put together to yield the ROI, which contains only the spectral part of the reflections associated to the object under consideration.

The NAS method prefers larger convolutional kernel sizes. Therefore, we deploy a neural architecture search (NAS) algorithm to automatically find such a NN. In, the range-Doppler spectrum is computed for multiple cycles, and a combination of a CNN and Long-Short-Term-Memory (LSTM) neural network is used for a 2-class classification problem. We showed that DeepHybrid outperforms the model that uses spectra only.

Use, Smithsonian To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time NAS is deployed in the context of a radar classification task. The approach, named SSD, discretizes the output space of bounding boxes into a set of default boxes over different aspect ratios and scales per feature map location, which makes SSD easy to train and straightforward to integrate into systems that require a detection component.
