and S101, segmenting the acquired road environment image, and inputting the segmented image into a training model to obtain a hot spot map of a vanishing point.
Specifically, a road environment image is collected through an ADAS environment perception camera, the road environment image is calibrated according to the space proportion of the camera, the space proportion is the proportion of the sky to the ground, namely the road environment image collected through the ADAS environment perception camera is divided into four parts, the four parts can be understood as four quadrants, the predicted position of a road vanishing point is predicted by covering 4 quadrants of a road environment scene, and the intersection point of the 4 quadrants is a region with the maximum vanishing point distribution probability. It should be noted that, if the road is not a narrow space, the road vanishing point is generally located on the calibrated occupancy boundary, and it can be understood that the road vanishing point is generally an intersection of four quadrants, or is near the intersection of four quadrants, and if the vehicle is located on a slope or a corner, the vanishing point deviates from the intersection of four quadrants and is distributed at a slightly longer distance from the intersection of four quadrants.
The ADAS is an Advanced Driving Assistance System (Advanced Driving Assistance System) which utilizes various sensors (millimeter wave radar, laser radar, monocular/binocular camera and satellite navigation) installed on a vehicle to sense the surrounding environment at any time during the Driving process of the vehicle, collect data, identify, detect and track static and dynamic objects, and combine navigation map data to perform systematic operation and analysis, thereby enabling drivers to perceive possible dangers in advance and effectively increasing the comfort and safety of vehicle Driving. It should be noted that the ADAS environmental perception camera is used for collecting video information of a real scene environment, and for accurately determining target parameters of a target object by an original function, the original function of the ADAS environmental perception camera can visualize the target types, the transverse and longitudinal distances, the target length and width, the speed and the like of the targets such as vehicles and pedestrians, and also provide the original input of the road surface vanishing point area range image for the present invention.
The vanishing point is a visual intersection of parallel lines, which is understood to mean that when you look at two rails along a railway line and at two regularly arranged trees along a public line, the two parallel rails or two rows of trees intersect at a point that is far away, which is called the vanishing point in the perspective view.
In an embodiment, whether the vanishing point is located at the left or right of the center can be further judged by combining the left and right of the lane line. Specifically, comparison and calibration are carried out according to the judgment results of the gray processing and color boundary processing vanishing point of the image, the judgment results of lane line information and the like.
The method comprises the steps of dividing an image collected by an ADAS camera into four quadrants, inputting the divided images into an established road vanishing point thermal model, wherein the input of the model is a collected picture, the input picture is a picture of an original image after data brightening operation during training, and the input picture is 1344 multiplied by 768, and the model input is the original image during testing, and the size is 2 multiplied by 1 242.

L vp =L qua +L vph ,L vp = -1/N detect vanishing points, where Lqua is cross entropy loss, used to generate quadrant graph; lvph is a variant of focal loss used to generate a hotspot map of vanishing points; m represents the number of samples; y is m Represents the true value; y represents a predicted value; n is the number of vanishing points in each picture.
In one embodiment, the output of the detection network model is defined as 4 quadrant channels. Each pixel in the output image will belong to 1 of these 4 channels, with the 4 quadrant channels representing one of the 4 quadrants on the image.
And S102, connecting the vanishing points in the heat point diagram, and determining the area of the obstacle according to the statistics of the vanishing points and the position of the obstacle.
Processing the segmented image according to the training model to obtain a hotspot graph of vanishing points, wherein the hotspot graph of the vanishing points is provided with a plurality of vanishing points, the vanishing points in the hotspot graph are connected into a straight line, and the vanishing points and the positions of the obstacles are statistically divided, so that the main calculation area, namely, the area (feasible area) of the small obstacle is judged. The statistical division of the positions of the obstacle and the obstacle is specifically that in the statistics of the pixel distances between the obstacle and the vanishing point, the number of the pixel distances between the obstacle and the vanishing point distributed in the interval of 0-30 is the largest, and more than 90% of the pixel distances between the obstacle and the vanishing point are within 180%. The pixel distance distribution interval between the barrier and the vanishing point can be understood as 0-30 pixel points and 30-180 pixel points.
Establishing a relative coordinate system between the vanishing point and the obstacle, wherein the relative coordinate is defined as the coordinate of the center point of the obstacle minus the coordinate of the vanishing point and then taking the positive, wherein the point (0,0) represents the original position of the vanishing point, and the obstacle can be seen to be distributed around the vanishing point, so that a certain position relation exists between the long-distance obstacle on the road and the vanishing point of the road. Accurate detection of road vanishing points will facilitate detection of distant obstacles. Therefore, in the present application, the pixel area in the road vanishing point 180 is taken as the reference area to perform the reference judgment.
It can be understood that vanishing points in the heat point diagram are connected into a straight line, and the obstacle distribution area can be determined to be 0-180 pixel points according to the vanishing points and the positions of the obstacles.
And step S103, gridding the determined region of the obstacle, primarily judging the obstacle pixel points of the gridded region, and labeling the primarily judged obstacle pixel points.
Specifically, the determined obstacle region is gridded in order to determine an obstacle in the obstacle region, specifically, after the obstacle region is determined, the obstacle is detected in the region, a pixel region in the road vanishing point 180 is taken as a reference region, the region is divided into basic grids of 32 × 32 (calibratable) pixel points, and an image in only one grid is processed in 1 signal cycle.
The processing mode is that a breakpoint or a difference point exists in a far-end vanishing point, and a basic grid of 32x32 pixel points where y _ cij indicates that pixel points of which vanishing point truth values on a hot spot graph coded by a Gaussian kernel are not 1 are located is fixed, and the pixel points which are preliminarily determined as the obstacles are labeled.
And step S104, judging the marked obstacle pixel points to determine a long-distance small obstacle.
Specifically, marking pixel points which are preliminarily determined as obstacles in a fixed grid, and carrying out three times of comparison on marked obstacle pixel points, wherein the three times of comparison specifically comprises carrying out first time image comparison on the marked obstacle pixel points in a 32x32 grid after a signal period, carrying out second time image comparison on the marked obstacle pixel points in a 32x96 grid after a second signal period, and carrying out third time image comparison on the marked obstacle pixel points in a 96x96 grid after a third signal period, wherein the comparison is the marked pixel points.
In one embodiment, after three times of comparison are performed on the marked obstacle pixel points in the fixed grid, the minimum obstacle in the distance is determined when the marked obstacle pixel points are larger than 100 pixel points.
