Abstract:

Autonomous driving poses unique challenges for vehicle environment perception in complex driving environments. Due to the uncertain nature of the vehicle environment and imperfection of any perception framework, multiple stages of estimation might be necessary to achieve the desired performance. However, it is highly possible that the estimation of one stage might result in output estimates with significant auto/cross-correlation, which would pass to another stage. In such situations, a decorrelation procedure is required. We present an object tracking approach taking into consideration the auto-correlation (of the velocity components) introduced by an upfront dynamic occupancy gridmap system. More specifically, we use a linear state-space system to approximately “reconstruct” the nonlinear estimation/mapping procedure for the purpose of auto-correlation quantification. We focus on demonstrating an estimation improvement of the proposed decorrelation tracker over a direct Kalman filter (i.e., KF that ignores the auto-correlation). For this we recorded several scenarios of different target motion behaviors. It is shown that the decorrelation tracker indeed introduces noticable estimation improvement in particularly velocity space if the target moves in a relatively smooth manner.
