RGGNet: Tolerance Aware LiDAR-Camera Online Calibration With Geometric Deep Learning and Generative Model
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Accurate LiDAR-camera online calibration is critical for modern autonomous vehicles and robot platforms. Dominant methods heavily rely on hand-crafted features, which are not scalable in practice. With the increasing popularity of deep learning (DL), a few recent efforts have demonstrated the advantages of DL for feature extraction on this task. However, their reported performances are not sufficiently satisfying yet. We believe one improvement can be the problem formulation with proper consideration of the underneath geometry. Besides, existing online calibration methods focus on optimizing the calibration error while overlooking the tolerance within the error bounds. To address the research gap, a DL-based LiDAR-camera calibration method, named as the RGGNet, is proposed by considering the Riemannian geometry and utilizing a deep generative model to learn an implicit tolerance model. When evaluated on KITTI benchmark datasets, the proposed method demonstrates superior performances to the state-of-the-art DL-based methods. The code will be publicly available at https://github.com/KleinYuan/RGGNet.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
