• Title: Multi-task UNet architecture for end-to-end autonomous driving
• Authors: Der-Hau Lee and Jinn-Liang Liu
• Abstract summary: We propose an end-to-end driving model that integrates a multi-task UNet (MTUNet) architecture and control algorithms in a pipeline of data flow from a front camera through this model to driving decisions. It provides quantitative measures to evaluate the holistic, dynamic, and real-time performance of end-to-end driving systems and thus the safety and interpretability of MTUNet.

• Abstract: We propose an end-to-end driving model that integrates a multi-task UNet (MTUNet) architecture and control algorithms in a pipeline of data flow from a front camera through this model to driving decisions. It provides quantitative measures to evaluate the holistic, dynamic, and real-time performance of end-to-end driving systems and thus the safety and interpretability of MTUNet. The architecture consists of one segmentation, one regression, and two classification tasks for lane segmentation, path prediction, and vehicle controls. We present three variants of the architecture having different complexities, compare them on different tasks in four static measures for both single and multiple tasks, and then identify the best one by two additional dynamic measures in real-time simulation. Our results show that the performance of the proposed supervised learning model is comparable to that of a reinforcement learning model on curvy roads for the same task, which is not end-to-end but multi-module.

  This paper proposes a novel approach to automatically learn a multi-path network for multi-domain visual classification on mobile devices. The proposed multi-path network is learned from neural architecture search by applying one reinforcement learning controller for each domain to select the best path in the super-network created from a MobileNetV3-like search space. The determined multi-path model selectively shares parameters across domains in shared nodes while keeping domain-specific parameters within non-shared nodes in individual domain paths.
