Embodiment 1

[0045] A multi-target detection method based on multi-modal information fusion, see figure 1 , the method includes the following steps:

[0046] 101: Process LiDAR point cloud data, and extract LiDAR point cloud features, that is, three-dimensional feature maps;

[0047] According to the sparsity of LiDAR data, the embodiment of the present invention adopts a resampling method and adds sampling points, which can increase the density of data to a certain extent, thereby improving the effect of the three-dimensional feature map and the effectiveness of detection.

[0048] 102: Perform two-dimensional image data processing on the RGB image, and output RGB image features through a feature extraction network, that is, a two-dimensional feature map;

[0049] Since two-dimensional images naturally lack three-dimensional information, in the detection stage after feature extraction, it is necessary to correlate with three-dimensional information based on spatial position and pixel info...

[0056] 201: Process LiDAR point cloud data, and output LiDAR point cloud features, that is, three-dimensional feature maps;

[0057] Specifically, the point cloud is evenly grouped into several voxels, and the sparse and uneven point cloud is converted into a dense tensor structure. The list of voxel features is obtained by stacking the voxel feature coding layer. The voxel features are aggregated in the enlarged receptive field, and the LiDAR point cloud features are output, that is, the three-dimensional feature map.

[0058] 202: Perform two-dimensional image data processing on the RGB image, and output RGB image features through a feature extraction network, that is, a two-dimensional feature map;

[0059] Specifically, a uniform grouping operation is performed on the two-dimensional RGB image, and the w...

Embodiment 3

[0093] Below in conjunction with specific example, the scheme in embodiment 1 and 2 is carried out feasibility verification, see the following description for details:

[0094] The KITTI dataset is used to evaluate the performance of the algorithm. The KITTI dataset is currently the largest algorithm evaluation dataset in the world for autonomous driving scenarios, including 7481 point clouds and images for training and 7518 point clouds and images for testing, including: cars, pedestrians and bicycles three categories of people. For each category, the detection results are evaluated according to three difficulty levels: easy, medium, and difficult. The three difficulty levels are determined according to the target size, occlusion state, and truncation level. The algorithm is comprehensively evaluated, and the training data is subdivided into a training set and a validation set, resulting in 3712 data samples for training and 3769 data samples for validation. After splitting...

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the fields of three-dimensional target detection and two-dimensional target detection, and in particular to a multi-target detection method and device based on multi-modal information fusion. Background technique [0002] In recent years, with the development of Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) technology, the acquisition speed and accuracy of point cloud data have been greatly improved. How to realize efficient and accurate point cloud target detection is an important issue in the fields of intelligent driving, remote sensing, augmented reality, virtual reality and so on. Compared with traditional 2D object detection, 3D object detection requires more output parameters to determine the bounding box of the object. Due to the data characteristics of LiDAR point cloud, in the target detection task, it often faces problems such as low resolution of input data, missing texture and color information, and high computational overh...
