Camera And Lidar Fusion For Point Cloud Semantic Segmentation, Ali Abdelkader Jan 2022

Camera And Lidar Fusion For Point Cloud Semantic Segmentation, Ali Abdelkader

Theses and Dissertations

Perception is a fundamental component of any autonomous driving system. Semantic segmentation is the perception task of assigning semantic class labels to sensor inputs. While autonomous driving systems are currently equipped with a suite of sensors, much focus in the literature has been on semantic segmentation of camera images only. Research in the fusion of different sensor modalities for semantic segmentation has not been investigated as much. Deep learning models based on transformer architectures have proven successful in many tasks in computer vision and natural language processing. This work explores the use of deep learning transformers to fuse information from …


Efficient End-To-End Autonomous Driving, Hesham Eraqi Dec 2020

Efficient End-To-End Autonomous Driving, Hesham Eraqi

Theses and Dissertations

Steering a car through traffic is a complex task that is difficult to cast into algorithms. Therefore, researchers turn to train artificial neural networks from front-facing camera data stream along with the associated steering angles. Nevertheless, most existing solutions consider only the visual camera frames as input, thus ignoring the temporal relationship between frames. In this work, we propose a Convolution Long Short-Term Memory Recurrent Neural Network (C-LSTM), which is end-to-end trainable, to learn both visual and dynamic temporal dependencies of driving. Additionally, We introduce posing the steering angle regression problem as classification while imposing a spatial relationship between the …
