• Abstract: In a world where autonomous driving cars are becoming increasingly more common, creating an adequate infrastructure for this new technology is essential. This includes building and labeling high-definition (HD) maps accurately and efficiently. Today, the process of creating HD maps requires a lot of human input, which takes time and is prone to errors. In this paper, we propose a novel method capable of generating labelled HD maps from raw sensor data. We implemented and tested our methods on several urban scenarios using data collected from our test vehicle. The results show that the pro-posed deep learning based method can produce highly accurate HD maps. This approach speeds up the process of building and labeling HD maps, which can make meaningful contribution to the deployment of autonomous vehicle.

  We propose to train a perception model to "see" standard definition maps (SDMaps) We encode SDMap elements into neural spatial map representations and instance tokens, and then incorporate such complementary features as prior information. Based on the lane segment representation framework, the model simultaneously predicts lanes, centrelines and their topology.

  HD maps are maps with precise definitions of road lanes with rich semantics of the traffic rules. There are only a small amount of real-world road topologies and geometries, which significantly limits our ability to test out the self-driving stack. We propose HDMapGen, a hierarchical graph generation model capable of producing high-quality and diverse HD maps.
