Abstract

Semantic segmentation was seen as a challenging computer vision problem few years ago. Due to recent advancements in deep learning, relatively accurate solutions are now possible for its use in automated driving. In this paper, the semantic segmentation problem is explored from the perspective of automated driving. Most of the current semantic segmentation algorithms are designed for generic images and do not incorporate prior structure and end goal for automated driving. First, the paper begins with a generic taxonomic survey of semantic segmentation algorithms and then discusses how it fits in the context of automated driving. Second, the particular challenges of deploying it into a safety system which needs high level of accuracy and robustness are listed. Third, different alternatives instead of using an independent semantic segmentation module are explored. Finally, an empirical evaluation of various semantic segmentation architectures was performed on CamVid dataset in terms of accuracy and speed. This paper is a preliminary shorter version of a more detailed survey which is work in progress.

  • The WoodScape dataset supports correct hypothesis evaluation, and therefore multiple splits are provided (5 in total).

    “The dataset supports correct hypothesis evaluation [55], therefore multiple splits are provided (5 in total).”

    From WoodScape: A Multi-Task, Multi-Camera Fisheye Dataset for Autonomous Driving (2019) · cites this paper as [55]

    The section on large annotated datasets discusses CamVid, Cityscapes and other datasets, but not WoodScape. The benchmarking section describes an evaluation on CamVid; neither it nor the other passages found addresses WoodScape’s support for hypothesis evaluation or its five splits (searched: WoodScape, hypothesis evaluation, dataset splits).

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
