Mind the map! Accounting for existing map information when estimating online HDMaps from sensor

arXiv:2311.10517v2 Announce Type: replace
Abstract: While HDMaps are a crucial component of autonomous driving, they are expensive to acquire and maintain. Estimating these maps from sensors therefore promises to significantly lighten costs. These estimations however overlook existing HDMaps, with current methods at most geolocalizing low quality maps or considering a general database of known maps. In this paper, we propose to account for existing maps of the precise situation studied when estimating HDMaps. We identify 3 reasonable types of useful …
