Improved Radar Localization on Lidar Maps Using Shared Embedding

18 Jun 2021  ·  Huan Yin, Yue Wang, Rong Xiong ·

We present a heterogeneous localization framework for solving radar global localization and pose tracking on pre-built lidar maps. To bridge the gap of sensing modalities, deep neural networks are constructed to create shared embedding space for radar scans and lidar maps. Herein learned feature embeddings are supportive for similarity measurement, thus improving map retrieval and data matching respectively. In RobotCar and MulRan datasets, we demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed framework with the comparison to Scan Context and RaLL. In addition, the proposed pose tracking pipeline is with less neural networks compared to the original RaLL.
