Creating Impactful Autonomous Driving Datasets: A Strategic Guide from Research Gap to Benchmark
Richard Schwarzkopf, Jonas Merkert, Frank Bieder +22
Well-designed autonomous driving datasets have fundamentally shaped research progress, yet existing literature primarily describes what datasets contain rather than how to strategi…
The Road Ahead in Autonomous Driving: The KITScenes Multimodal Dataset
Richard Schwarzkopf, Fabian Immel, Alexander Blumberg +21
Existing autonomous driving datasets have enabled major progress, but fall short in sensor fidelity, map completeness, or geographic diversity. We present KITScenes Multimodal, a E…
MapGCLR: Geospatial Contrastive Learning of Representations for Online Vectorized HD Map Construction
Jonas Merkert, Alexander Blumberg, Jan-Hendrik Pauls +1
Autonomous vehicles rely on map information to understand the world around them. However, the creation and maintenance of offline high-definition (HD) maps remains costly. A more s…
Radar-based Pose Optimization for HD Map Generation from Noisy Multi-Drive Vehicle Fleet Data
Alexander Blumberg, Jonas Merkert, Christoph Stiller
High-definition (HD) maps are important for autonomous driving, but their manual generation and maintenance is very expensive. This motivates the usage of an automated map generati…
Impact of Localization Errors on Label Quality for Online HD Map Construction
Alexander Blumberg, Jonas Merkert, Richard Fehler +4
High-definition (HD) maps are crucial for autonomous vehicles, but their creation and maintenance is very costly. This motivates the idea of online HD map construction. To provide…
