Various remote sensing technologies have been applied in intelligent vehicles and robots for surrounding-environment recognition. However, these technologies experience difficulties in detecting pedestrians in blind areas and their motions, such as rush-out behaviors. To address this issue, we present a radar-based technique for the detection of pedestrians in blind areas and the classification of different risks of rush-out behaviors among detected pedestrians. We verify their ability to detect pedestrian motion in blind areas by conducting experiments in two environments with blind areas formed by outdoor cars and indoor walls. Then, the classification of motions with different risks of rush-out behaviors among pedestrians detected in the blind areas is demonstrated. We use the clustering method to accurately classify several types of behaviors with different rush-out risks in both environments.

Processing Steps

Urban object segmentation and classification tasks are critical data processing steps in scene understanding, intelligent vehicles and 3D high-precision maps. Semantic segmentation of 3D point clouds is the foundational step in object recognition. To identify the intersecting objects and improve the accuracy of classification, this paper proposes a segment-based classification method for 3D point clouds. This method firstly divides points into multi-scale supervoxels and groups them by proposed inverse node graph (IN-Graph) construction, which does not need to define prior information about the node, it divides supervoxels by judging the connection state of edges between them. This method reaches minimum global energy by graph cutting, obtains the structural segments as completely as possible, and retains boundaries at the same time. Then, the random forest classifier is utilized for supervised classification. To deal with the mislabeling of scattered fragments, higher-order CRF with small-label cluster optimization is proposed to refine the classification results. Experiments were carried out on mobile laser scan (MLS) point dataset and terrestrial laser scan (TLS) points dataset, and the results show that overall accuracies of 97.57% and 96.39% were obtained in the two datasets. The boundaries of objects were retained well, and the method achieved a good result in the classification of cars and motorcycles. More experimental analyses have verified the advantages of the proposed method and proved the practicability and versatility of the method.
