Original abstract

High-definition (HD) maps are essential for autonomous driving systems. In constructing such maps, onboard multi-view camera images, standard-definition maps and satellite images provide crucial information. However, due to the modality and perspective differences among these data sources, existing methods often struggle to effectively align and fuse them, making online HD map construction still challenging. To address these issues, we propose Driver2Map, an online HD map construction model inspired by human drivers. Unlike existing HD map construction models that utilize only two modalities, our Driver2Map can simultaneously exploit three modalities. Specifically, we propose a "two-stage alignment" strategy to reduce spatial misalignment across different modalities. Additionally, we introduce "Pose-Guided BEV Fusion", a BEV (bird's-eye-view) generation module that leverages camera pose information to adaptively weight multi-view features, thereby effectively suppressing cross-view feature overlap during BEV generation. Also, we design a "Pretrained Prior for Map Refinement" module to refine the initial prediction by learning map structure priors, thus improving the HD map prediction under dynamic occlusions. Extensive experiments demonstrate that Driver2Map outperforms existing methods on both IoU and AP metrics.
