Detailed Description
In order to make the technical solution more clearly understood by those skilled in the art, an application scenario of the technical solution of the present application is first described below.
Referring to fig. 1, a schematic diagram of a vehicle for ground mark detection is shown.
The ground mark in the following description of the present application refers to lines, marks, characters, and the like drawn on a road surface on which a vehicle travels, for indicating the travel of the vehicle, and is distinguished from a signboard arranged perpendicular to the ground, on which the ground mark is horizontally drawn.
Common ground marks are, for example, straight marks, turning marks, parking prohibition marks and the like.
When the vehicle is automatically driven, the detection of the ground identification of the driving road of the vehicle is accurately realized, and the method has important significance for subsequent path planning, real-time decision and driving control.
The method for identifying the ground mark is generally a method based on ROI and artificial feature, such as ground mark horizontal projection type identification method. The method utilizes the HOG to extract features from the candidate ground identifications, and then utilizes the total error rate TER classifier to classify the candidate ground identifications.
However, the above method is only suitable for processing the situation when the ground mark is located at the near end of the current vehicle, for example, for the vehicle 11 in the figure, when the ground mark in front of the vehicle is located at the near end of the vehicle, the feature of the ground mark is obvious, and therefore the recognition can be normally performed.
However, for the ground mark at the far end of the vehicle, the detection capability of this method is significantly reduced, for example, for the vehicle 10 in the figure, when the ground mark at the left front is recognized, because the ground mark is at the far end of the vehicle 10, the candidate ground mark detected by horizontal projection generally has severe deformation and distortion, which makes it difficult to accurately determine the type of the ground mark, and the candidate ground mark can only be recognized when the vehicle 10 continues to drive to approach the ground mark. This may cause that only the near-end ground identifier can be always recognized during the automatic driving of the vehicle, leaving a short action time for subsequent path planning, real-time decision-making and driving control, which may result in the untimely subsequent path planning, real-time decision-making and driving control.
Therefore, the ground identification detection capability of the method is poor, the ground identification detection can be realized only nearby, and the practicability is low.
In order to solve the above problem, embodiments of the present application provide a method and an apparatus for confirming a category of a ground identifier, and a vehicle. The method carries out inverse perspective transformation on the image including the ground mark to be determined, can better reserve the characteristics of the ground mark to be determined on the obtained top view through the inverse perspective transformation, and reduces the influence of the height and the visual angle of a shooting device on a vehicle on the characteristics of the ground mark so as to effectively identify the ground mark identification model. And when the ground identification recognition model is trained, the top view is obtained by utilizing the inverse perspective transformation for training, so that the accuracy of the recognition category of the ground identification recognition model is improved. By utilizing the scheme, the detection capability of the ground mark is improved, particularly the detection capability of the far-end ground mark is improved, and further better technical support is provided for path planning, real-time decision and driving control in the follow-up automatic driving process, so that the method has higher practicability.
In order to make the technical solutions more clearly understood by those skilled in the art, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application.
The terms "first", "second", and the like in the description of the present application are used for descriptive purposes only and are not to be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implying any number of technical features indicated
The embodiment of the present application provides a method for identifying a category of a ground identifier, which is specifically described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
Referring to fig. 2, the figure is a flowchart of a method for identifying a category of a ground identifier according to an embodiment of the present application.
In an implementation manner, the scheme provided by the embodiment of the application can be applied to a scene that the vehicle automatically confirms the type of the ground identifier in the automatic driving process; in another possible implementation manner, the method can also be applied to a non-automatic driving scene of the vehicle, namely, a driver actively drives the vehicle, and the ground identifier is recognized by the method and then displayed or prompted, so that the driver knows the ground identifier, and the decision making of the driver is further assisted.
The method is described below by taking as an example the application of the method in an automatic driving process, and the method comprises the following steps:
s201: an image including a ground identity to be determined is acquired.
The vehicle comprises a shooting device, wherein the shooting device is used for shooting the road condition in front of the driving direction of the vehicle, and then the image of the ground mark to be determined can be obtained in real time.
In one possible implementation, the shooting device is configured to shoot a video, intercept a video frame from the video, and further obtain an image including the ground identifier to be determined.
The ground marks in the embodiment of the application refer to marks and the like which are drawn on a running road surface of a vehicle and used for indicating the running of the vehicle, such as straight running marks, turning marks, parking forbidding marks and the like, and determine the types of the ground marks, that is, which type of marks the ground marks are specifically, and each type of ground marks represents indication information of the running of the vehicle.
For example, a left turn type ground sign for indicating that the road ahead of the vehicle can be turned left; and the straight-going class mark is used for indicating the vehicle to go straight on the road.
It is understood that there may be some difference in marks indicating the same information drawn on the actual road surface, for example, a difference in size, a difference between proportions of parts of the marks, a difference in color of the marks, or a difference in wear condition, so in the embodiment of the present application, the marks indicating the same information are determined to be a type of mark, and when the type of the ground mark is determined, the information indicated by the ground mark is determined.
S202: and carrying out inverse perspective transformation on the image to acquire a corresponding top view of the image.
S203: and confirming the category of the ground mark to be determined by utilizing the top view and the ground mark recognition model.
The ground logo recognition model is trained by using a top view set, wherein each top view in the top view set is obtained by Inverse Perspective transformation (IPM) from an image comprising ground logos with known types.
The inventor finds out through tests and comparisons that the best characteristics of the ground mark cannot be obtained if the shot image is simply and directly used. Similarly, the training of the ground identification recognition model by directly using the acquired images is limited by the practical problems of camera height, vehicle view angle and the like, so that the ground identification recognition model cannot learn the significant features of the ground identification, and further cannot provide sufficient technical support for automatic driving.
The method creatively uses the top view to train the model, and solves the problem that the ground identification cannot be effectively identified due to the camera imaging principle. The following description is made with reference to examples.
Referring to fig. 3, an image including a ground mark to be determined is provided according to an embodiment of the present application.
At this time, because the ground mark to be determined is located at the far-end position in front of the vehicle, the feature display of the ground mark to be determined is not obvious in the image acquired by the vehicle, and the ground mark to be determined is easily confused with the lane line, so that when the detection and identification are directly carried out by using the still image, the error identification is easy to occur or the correct type is difficult to identify.
Referring to fig. 4, it is a top view of fig. 3 after inverse perspective transformation.
The embodiment of the application provides a high scheme, and the image is subjected to inverse perspective transformation to obtain a corresponding top view. After the image under the scene is subjected to inverse perspective transformation, the ground identification characteristics can be well kept on a top view, the deformation is reduced, and then the ground identification model can be effectively identified.
In summary, with the method provided by the present application, the image including the ground identifier to be determined is subjected to inverse perspective transformation, and through the inverse perspective transformation, the features of the ground identifier to be determined can be better retained on the obtained top view, so that the influence of the height and the angle of view of the shooting device on the vehicle on the features of the ground identifier is reduced, and the ground identifier recognition model can perform effective recognition. And when the ground identification recognition model is trained, the top view is obtained by utilizing inverse perspective transformation for training, so that the accuracy of the recognition category of the ground identification recognition model is improved, and the robustness is strong when the ground identification recognition model is applied to a complex real scene. By using the method, the detection capability of the ground mark is improved, particularly the detection capability of the remote ground mark is improved, and further better technical support is provided for path planning, real-time decision and driving control in the subsequent automatic driving process, so that the method has higher practicability.
The following description is made with reference to specific implementations.
Referring to fig. 5, this figure is a flowchart of another method for identifying a category of a ground identifier according to an embodiment of the present application.
The method comprises the following steps:
s501: an image including a ground identity to be determined is acquired with a camera.
S502: and performing inverse perspective transformation on the image by using the camera calibration file to acquire a top view corresponding to the image.
S503: and extracting a characteristic diagram corresponding to the ground identifier to be determined from the top view by using the ground identifier recognition model.

The ground identification recognition model is specifically YOLOV3 (young Only Look Once V3, a model for fast and accurate real-time object detection), and the backbone network (backbone) of the ground identification recognition model is Xception.
The backbone network is a network used for feature extraction in the model, and is generally used for extracting image information at the front end to generate a feature map for the use of the following network.
Xception is a feature extraction network implemented with deep separable convolution. The deep separable convolution is an algorithm obtained by improving standard convolution in a convolutional neural network, and by splitting the correlation between space dimensionality and channel dimensionality, the number of parameters of convolution calculation is reduced, and the use efficiency of convolution kernel parameters is improved
S504: and confirming that the category of the ground identifier to be determined is a first category by using the ground identifier recognition model and the characteristic diagram, and determining whether the prediction confidence coefficient of the first category is greater than or equal to a preset threshold value.
If yes, executing S505; otherwise, S506 is performed.
S505: and taking the first category as the category of the ground identification to be determined.
And when the prediction confidence of the first category is greater than or equal to a preset threshold, the determined first category is credible, and the result is taken as the category of the ground identifier to be determined. The prediction confidence may be set according to actual conditions, and the embodiment of the present application is not particularly limited.
S506: and determining that the class confirmation result of the ground identifier to be determined is unknown.
And when the prediction confidence of the first category is smaller than a preset threshold, the surface cannot determine the category of the ground identifier to be determined according to the image.
In some implementations of the above-described embodiments,
it should be understood that the above steps in the embodiments of the present application are only for convenience of description, and do not form a limitation on the technical solution of the present application, and in practical applications, the above solution may be adjusted according to practical situations, for example, when the above solution further includes the following steps:
and after the category of the ground identifier to be determined is confirmed, displaying the category of the ground identifier to be determined on display equipment.
The steps can be applied to an automatic driving scene or a non-automatic driving scene, for example, when non-automatic driving is carried out, a driver can accurately acquire the type of the ground mark in advance on the display equipment of the vehicle, and then the driving strategy is made in time.
The ground identifier recognition model provided in the embodiment of the present application is trained using a top view obtained after inverse perspective transformation, and a training process of the model is specifically described below.
First, the top view acquisition method used for training the model will be described.
And acquiring a ground identification image of the real scene by using a driving camera.

And classifying and sorting the images of each ground mark collected under different lane conditions, different weather conditions and different time stamp conditions into the same folder.
And generating an image corresponding to the top view by using the acquired image and combining a calibration file of the corresponding camera in an inverse perspective transformation mode. The specific implementation of the inverse perspective transformation is a mature technology, and is not described herein again.
