Description

Radar point cloud data downsampling processing method and related equipment
Technical Field
The present disclosure relates to the field of signal processing, and more particularly, to a radar point cloud data downsampling method and related devices.
Background
The number of original point clouds of the laser radar is huge, and in order to improve the processing efficiency, downsampling (also called downsampling) is often performed on the original point clouds to reduce the amount of point cloud data, thereby improving the efficiency of subsequent point cloud processing. Common point cloud downsampling methods include uniform downsampling, random downsampling, voxel downsampling, and the like. While the various methods implement different principles and effects, the processing of point cloud space is equal. For example, voxel downsampling uniformly partitions the point cloud space into tightly arranged grids, and downsamples and outputs the center of gravity of the point cloud in each grid. Voxel downsampling, in contrast to the way the geometric center of the grid is taken as the downsampling output, is performed according to the local spatial distribution of the point cloud, but the processing of the point cloud space during the overall grid generation process is uniform, i.e. the grid size and spatial distribution are uniform.
This uniform spatial processing scheme results in a single downsampling scale that is difficult to determine: if the grid scale is too small, the number of points left after downsampling is large, and the downsampling effect is not obvious; if the grid scale is too large, point cloud features are easy to filter, processing results such as subsequent spatial clustering are affected, and the risk of target missed detection is increased. This problem is particularly pronounced for large spatial ranges and small clustered objects.

The boundary downsampling factor is smaller than the internal downsampling factor, i.e. the data density of the downsampled boundary point cloud data is greater than the data density of the internal perception point cloud. The downsampling boundary is a target area cut out according to the vehicle type, road, project requirement, etc. in the sensing range of the sensor.

Small objects such as cones, roadblocks and the like are generally shorter in heightAbove P 1 The point cloud space can be continuously segmented through the first preset height in the sub point cloud space. Selecting a first preset height threshold h 0 (can take the value h 0 =0.5m) and point clouds with a height larger than or equal to a first preset height form a sub-point cloud P 3 (second regional point cloud data), point clouds smaller than or equal to a first preset threshold value form a sub-point cloud P 4 (first regional point cloud data). P (P) 4 Mainly used for identifying short and short targets, the downsampling grid of the downsampling grid can be set to be smaller in size so as to reserve more points for subsequent clustering and other processes, and P is recorded 3 、P 4 Downsampling grid parameter in space is a 3 、a 4 Wherein n is 1 、n 2 Is a positive integer, n 1 For the second downsampling coefficient, n 2 For the first downsampling factor, the range of values may be defined as n 1 ∈[2,4],n 2 >n 1

By way of example, the point cloud data for identifying the obstacle, which is acquired by the target vehicle at the current position, can be obtained by combining the first area point cloud data and the second area point cloud data, and the obstacle near the target vehicle can be quickly and accurately identified by identifying the point cloud data after the down-sampling processing through a clustering algorithm or a deep learning algorithm, so that the target vehicle is guided to perform intelligent driving.
In summary, according to the radar point cloud data downsampling processing method provided by the embodiment of the application, the original point cloud data is subjected to point cloud boundary segmentation based on the preset downsampling boundary and the boundary width to obtain downsampling boundary area point cloud data, the downsampling boundary area point cloud data is segmented into a boundary low-low sub-area and a boundary non-low sub-area according to the first preset height threshold value, the first downsampling coefficient and the second downsampling coefficient are calculated through the preset default downsampling parameters, downsampling operations are performed in different point cloud spaces by using different scales, the number of point cloud points can be effectively reduced to ensure the efficiency of subsequent processing, and the point cloud characteristics can be maintained to ensure the accuracy of subsequent clustering and other operations.
In some examples, the target object information includes object type information of the target object;
the method further comprises the following steps:
and determining a third downsampling coefficient of a corresponding region of the target object based on the object type information.
By way of example, after the boundary segmentation and the height segmentation, the type information of the object can be obtained by identifying the first area point cloud data and the second area point cloud data, the object can be a small fixed object, a large fixed object, a small moving object, a large moving object and the like, and after the object is initially identified, the downsampling coefficient is adjusted according to the type of the target object, and the third downsampling coefficient of the corresponding area of different objects is redetermined so as to meet the identification requirement of different types of objects, and the identification speed is effectively improved.
In summary, according to the radar point cloud data downsampling processing method provided by the embodiment of the application, after an object is initially identified, downsampling coefficients of the object can be further adjusted according to type information of the object, so that requirements of different types of object identification are met, and identification speed is effectively improved.
In some examples, determining the third downsampling factor of the corresponding region of the target object based on the object type information includes:
setting a third downsampling coefficient corresponding to the target object as the first downsampling coefficient when the height of the target object is smaller than or equal to the first preset height threshold;
and/or the number of the groups of groups,
setting a third downsampling coefficient corresponding to the target object as the perceived internal downsampling coefficient when the height of the target object is greater than the first preset height threshold and the length is greater than the length threshold or the height of the target object is greater than the first preset height threshold or the width is greater than the width threshold;
and/or the number of the groups of groups,
setting a third downsampling coefficient corresponding to the target object as a non-low area point cloud downsampling coefficient in a downsampling boundary under the condition that the height of the target object is larger than the first preset height threshold and the length is smaller than or equal to the length threshold;
and/or the number of the groups of groups,
and setting a third downsampling coefficient corresponding to the target object as a non-low area point cloud downsampling coefficient in a downsampling boundary under the condition that the height of the target object is larger than the first preset height threshold and the width is smaller than the width threshold.
Exemplary, as shown in FIG. 3, at P 2 Tracking and predicting the motion trail of a perceived target object through a history perceived result in the sub-point cloud space, carrying out space division on the possible position of the target object in the current frame, and carrying out sub-space P of the range of the target according to the size of the target 5 、P 6 、P 7 The sub-point cloud space of the area where the rest non-target is located is marked as P 8 The corresponding downsampling grid parameter is a 5 、a 6 、a 7 、a 8 。a 5 、a 6 、a 7 The calculation mode of (2) is related to the size and/or the height of the target object, and the following formula is adopted:
Figure SMS_4
where l is the length of the target object, w is the width of the target object, and h is the height of the target objectHeight, h 0 、l 0 、w 0 The reference value of the height threshold value, the length threshold value and the width threshold value can be h 0 =0.5m,l 0 =3m,w 0 =2m. When h is less than or equal to h 0 When the target object is smaller than or equal to the first preset height threshold, the target object is a short target, and the third downsampling coefficient is set as the first downsampling coefficient; the target object is larger than the second preset height threshold value and l>l 0 Or w>w 0 If the target object is a medium-large target of the vehicle type, the default parameters of the source can be used; otherwise, the target object may be a pedestrian or a rider, and downsampling coefficients of the downsampled boundary non-low area point cloud may be used. P (P) 8 Instead of the key sense region, the downsampling may be performed using default downsampling parameters.
In summary, according to the radar point cloud data downsampling processing method provided by the embodiment of the application, the third downsampling coefficient of the corresponding area is readjusted according to the size of the target object, the point cloud precision of different types of objects is subjected to targeted adjustment, and the recognition speed of the target object is improved while the recognition precision is ensured.
In some examples, the above method further comprises:
when there is an overlapping region in the corresponding regions of the plurality of target objects, a downsampling process is performed on the overlapping region by selecting a smaller downsampling coefficient in the corresponding region of the overlapping target object.
In an exemplary embodiment, when there is an overlap between the areas corresponding to the plurality of target objects, the overlap area is downsampled by using a smaller downsampling coefficient, so as to ensure that the point cloud density of the overlap area is sufficient to identify any one of the overlapping target objects, and avoid degradation of identification accuracy caused by overlapping of the areas.
In summary, according to the radar point cloud data downsampling processing method provided by the embodiment of the application, under the condition that a plurality of target objects have overlapping areas, the overlapping areas are downsampled by adopting the smaller downsampling coefficient, so that the identification accuracy of the target objects can be ensured.
In some examples, the above method further comprises:
under the condition that a smaller target object is overlapped behind a larger target object, acquiring the movement rule of the smaller target object;
and carrying out downsampling processing in the overlapped area based on the movement rule and the smaller downsampling coefficient.
For example, when a smaller target object is overlapped behind a larger target object, a larger object may shade the smaller target object in a future period of time, and after a further lapse of a period of time, the smaller object suddenly appears in a region corresponding to the non-target object, at this time, the downsampling coefficient of the region corresponding to the non-target object is larger, the point cloud data is truly larger, the recognition of the smaller object is affected, and the speed and the precision are reduced.
In summary, according to the radar point cloud data downsampling processing method provided by the embodiment of the application, when a smaller target object is overlapped behind a larger target object, a movement rule of the smaller target object is acquired, and processing can ensure that the downsampling coefficient of a region corresponding to the smaller object is enough to meet the requirement of identifying the object when the smaller object jumps out of shielding of the larger object, so that risk caused by missing identification is avoided.
In some examples, the above method further comprises:
acquiring the moving speed of the moving object when the target object is the moving object;
and determining a fourth downsampling coefficient of the area corresponding to the moving object based on the moving speed.
In an exemplary case that the target object is a moving object, the moving speed of the moving object is obtained, the fourth downsampling coefficient is determined according to the moving speed of the object, the fourth downsampling coefficient is smaller when the moving speed of the object is higher, the potential risk of the vehicle is greater when the moving speed of the target object is higher, the fourth downsampling coefficient is smaller when the vehicle speed is higher, namely, more point cloud information is reserved, so that the motion rule and the characteristics of the object are better and more accurately identified, and the safety of automatic driving of the vehicle is improved.
In summary, according to the radar point cloud data downsampling processing method, the downsampling coefficient is dynamically adjusted according to the moving speed of the target object, and more accurate identification can be effectively made for moving objects with different speeds.
In some examples, the above method further comprises:
acquiring the moving direction of the moving object when the target object is the moving object;
the perceived internal downsampling coefficient is set to a downsampling coefficient of the moving object corresponding region when the moving direction of the object does not overlap with the moving direction of the target vehicle.
For example, when the target object is identified as a moving object, the moving direction of the moving object may be obtained according to the radar point cloud data of different time periods identified by the target vehicle, and if the moving direction of the moving object does not overlap with the moving direction of the target vehicle, that is, the moving object does not collide with the target vehicle, a larger grid parameter is not required to identify the moving object, and at this time, the downsampling coefficient of the corresponding area of the moving object is set to a perceived internal downsampling coefficient (that is, a default downsampling coefficient).
In summary, according to the radar point cloud data downsampling processing method provided by the embodiment of the application, through judging the moving direction of a moving object, when the moving direction of the object cannot interfere with the running of a vehicle, grid parameters of the object are reduced, and the speed of identifying the obstacle is improved.
In some examples, as shown in fig. 4, the point cloud space may be divided into a plurality of subspaces p= { P1, P2, P3.}, the downsampling method f= { F1, F2, F3,.} and the parameter a= { a1, a2, a3,.} of each subspace are set according to the requirement, and finally, the downsampled point clouds are combined to obtain the final point cloud downsampling result. The space division and parameter formulation are adjusted according to different specific factors such as vehicle types, operation environments, recognition targets and the like, and the invention provides a plurality of specific implementation schemes. The general flow chart is shown in fig. 4: dividing an original point cloud into different sub point clouds by three methods of boundary division, height division and perception tracking division successively; setting respective downsampling method parameters for each sub-point cloud to downsample; and finally, merging the sub-point cloud downsampling results to obtain a final point cloud downsampling result.
