| description | With the continuous advancement of autonomous driving technology, visual analysis techniques have emerged as a prominent research topic. The data generated by autonomous driving is large-scale and time-varying, yet more than existing visual analytics methods are required to deal with such complex data effectively. Time-varying diagrams can be used to model and visualize the dynamic relationships in various complex systems and can visually describe the data trends in autonomous driving systems. To this end, this paper introduces a time-varying graph-based method for visual analysis in autonomous driving. The proposed method employs a graph structure to represent the relative positional relationships between the target and obstacle interferences. By incorporating the time dimension, a time-varying graph model is constructed. The method explores the characteristic changes of nodes in the graph at different time instances, establishing feature expressions that differentiate target and obstacle motion patterns. The analysis demonstrates that the feature vector centrality in the time-varying graph effectively captures the distinctions in motion patterns between targets and obstacles. These features can be utilized for accurate target and obstacle recognition, achieving high recognition accuracy. To evaluate the proposed time-varying graph-based visual analytic autopilot method, a comparative study is conducted against traditional visual analytic methods such as the frame differencing method and advanced visual analytic methods like visual lidar odometry and mapping. Robustness, accuracy, and resource consumption experiments are performed using the publicly available KITTI dataset to analyze and compare the three methods. The experimental results show that the proposed time-varying graph-based method exhibits superior accuracy and robustness. This study offers valuable insights and solution ideas for developing deep integration between intelligent networked vehicles and intelligent transportation. It provides a reference for advancing intelligent transportation systems and their integration with autonomous driving technologies. |
