The availability of a robust map-based localization system is essential for the operation of many autonomously navigating vehicles. Since uncertainty is an inevitable part of perception, it is beneficial for the robustness of the robot to consider it in typical downstream tasks of navigation stacks.
Uncertainty estimation is crucial in safety-critical settings such as automated driving as it provides valuable information for several downstream tasks including high-level decision making and path planning. In this work, we propose EvCenterNet, a novel uncertainty-aware 2D object detection framewo…
Reliable scene understanding is indispensable for modern autonomous systems. Current learning-based methods typically try to maximize their performance based on segmentation metrics that only consider the quality of the segmentation. However, for the safe operation of a system in the real world it i
Modern autonomous systems often rely on LiDAR scanners, in particular for autonomous driving scenarios. In this context, reliable scene understanding is indispensable. Conventional learning-based methods generally try to achieve maximum performance for this task, while neglecting a proper estimation…
Robust localization in dense urban scenarios using a low-cost sensor setup and sparse HD maps is highly relevant for the current advances in autonomous driving, but remains a challenging topic in research. We present a novel monocular localization approach based on a sliding-window pose graph that l…
