Vectorized high-definition map (HD-map) construction, which focuses on the perception of centimeter-level environmental information, has attracted significant research interest in the autonomous driving community. In this paper, by delving into parameterization-based methods, we pioneer a concise and elegant scheme that adopts UNIFIED piecewise Bezier curve. In order to vectorize changeful map elements end-to-end, we elaborate a simple yet effective architecture, named Piecewise Bezier HD-map Network (BeMapNet), which is formulated as a direct set prediction paradigm and postprocessing-free. The overall architecture contains four primary components for extracting progressively richer-infos: image-level multi-scale features, semantic-level BEV feature, instance-level curve descriptors, and point-level Bezier control sequence.
Step-by-step Installation
<\br>-
a. Check Environment
Python >= 3.8 CUDA 11.1 # other versions of python/cuda have not been fully tested, but I think they should work as well.
-
b. Create a conda virtual environment and activate it. (Optional)
conda create -n bemapnet python=3.8 -y conda activate bemapnet
-
c. Install PyTorch and torchvision following the official instructions.
pip3 install torch==1.10.1+cu111 torchvision==0.11.2+cu111 -f https://download.pytorch.org/whl/torch_stable.html
-
d. Install MMCV following the official instructions. (need GPU)
pip3 install -U openmim mim install mmcv==1.7.1
-
e. Install Detectron2 following the official instructions.
python3 -m pip install detectron2 -f https://dl.fbaipublicfiles.com/detectron2/wheels/cu111/torch1.10/index.html
-
f. Install BeMapNet.
git clone [email protected]:qiaolimeng/bemapnet.git -b bemapnet-release cd bemapnet pip3 install -r requirement.txt
Material Preparation
<\br>-
a. Data: NuScenes
- Download&Unzip the NuScenes dataset into your server and link it to desirable path.
cd /path/to/bemapnet mkdir data ln -s /any/path/to/your/nuscenes data/nuscenes
- Generate Bezier-annotations from NuScenes's raw-annotations.
cd /path/to/bemapnet python3 tools/bezier_converter/nuscenes/convert.py -d ./data -n bemapnet
- OR download from here and put it into
/path/to/bemapnet/data/nuscenes
cd /path/to/bemapnet mkdir data/nuscenes/customer cd data/nuscenes/customer wget https://github.com/er-muyue/BeMapNet/releases/download/v1.0/bemapnet.zip . unzip bemapnet.zip bemapnet
- Download&Unzip the NuScenes dataset into your server and link it to desirable path.
-
b. Weights: Public-Pretrain-Models
- Download public pretrain-weights as backbone initialization.
cd /path/to/bemapnet cd assets/weights wget https://github.com/er-muyue/BeMapNet/releases/download/v1.0/efficientnet-b0-355c32eb.pth . wget https://github.com/er-muyue/BeMapNet/releases/download/v1.0/resnet50-0676ba61.pth . wget https://github.com/er-muyue/BeMapNet/releases/download/v1.0/upernet_swin_tiny_patch4_window7_512x512.pth .
- Download public pretrain-weights as backbone initialization.
-
c. Check: Project-Structure
- Your project directory should be,
assets | -- weights (resnet, swin-t, efficient-b0, ...) | -- bemapnet configs data | -- nuscenes | -- samples (CAM_FRONT, CAM_FRONT_LEFT, CAM_FRONT_RIGHT, ...) | -- annotations | -- v1.0-trainval | -- ... | -- customer | -- bemapnet | -- *.npz tools
- Your project directory should be,
Training and Evluation
<\br>-
a. Model Training
bash run.sh train bemapnet_nuscenes_swint 30 # default: 8GPUs, bs=1, epochs=30
-
b. Model Evaluation
bash run.sh test bemapnet_nuscenes_swint ${checkpoint-path}
-
c. Reproduce with one command
bash run.sh reproduce bemapnet_nuscenes_swint
