Detailed Description

So that the manner in which the features and elements of the disclosed embodiments can be understood in detail, a more particular description of the disclosed embodiments, briefly summarized above, may be had by reference to the embodiments, some of which are illustrated in the appended drawings. In the following description of the technology, for purposes of explanation, numerous details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the disclosed embodiments. However, one or more embodiments may be practiced without these details. In other instances, well-known structures and devices may be shown in simplified form in order to simplify the drawing.

The working principle of the laser radar is to emit laser beams to a target object, process received signals and emitted signals and acquire rich information of three-dimensional coordinates, height, speed, shape, posture and the like of the target. The core of the laser radar is provided with two parts, namely a laser transmitting system and a laser receiving system. The laser emitting system has a small divergence angle and emits laser beams with large energy, and the laser receiving system is responsible for detecting and receiving echo signals such as reflection and scattering and the like irradiated on a target.

Compared with an image sensor, the laser radar has a longer detection distance, can acquire three-dimensional coordinate information of an object, and has the characteristics of high measurement precision, strong stability, good robustness and the like; moreover, the laser radar can work all day long without being limited by illumination in day and night, and the anti-interference capability is strong. Therefore, the embodiment of the disclosure provides a laser radar target identification method based on distance intensity correlation.

The laser radar target identification method based on the distance intensity correlation provided by the embodiment of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to fig. 1 to 3.

Referring to fig. 1, the method specifically includes the following steps.

S101, point cloud data of a laser radar scanning area are obtained, and the distance from each point to the origin of a coordinate system is calculated according to three-dimensional coordinate information in the point cloud data.

In one embodiment, before performing step S101, the method further includes acquiring point cloud data within the target scene by using a laser radar at a preset frequency. For example, a laser radar system with a beam divergence angle θ and a laser wavelength l is installed, and the laser radar system may be installed in a stationary position or on a moving vehicle, ship, or other carrier. In a preset time length T, point cloud data in a target scene are collected at a preset frequency F, and the target scene, especially a target to be identified, needs to be completely covered. In addition, a person skilled in the art may set the preset time length, the preset frequency and the beam divergence angle by himself, and the embodiment of the present disclosure is not particularly limited.

And then point cloud data of a laser radar scanning area is obtained, wherein the point cloud is a massive point set which expresses target space distribution and target surface spectral characteristics under the same space reference system. The most common point cloud data only comprises three-dimensional XYZ coordinate information, the point cloud data acquired according to the laser measurement principle comprises echo Intensity (Intensity, I) besides the three-dimensional coordinates, and the point cloud data acquired according to the photogrammetry principle comprises color information besides the three-dimensional coordinates. According to the algorithm, the primary target point detection is completed by using the three-dimensional XYZ coordinates of the point cloud and the echo intensity I, so that the point cloud data are obtained by using a laser radar in the embodiment of the disclosure.

After the laser radar coordinate system is determined, XYZI information of the point cloud is obtained, and the distance between each point and the origin (0,0,0) of the coordinate system can be calculated according to the XYZ information of the point cloud. In one possible implementation, the distance between each point and the origin of the coordinate system is calculated by using an euclidean metric calculation method, and the formula is as follows:

wherein R represents the distance from a point to the origin of the coordinate system, (X)₁,Y₁,Z₁) The three-dimensional coordinate of a certain point in the point cloud; (X)₂,Y₂,Z₂) Are lidar coordinates.

After calculating the distance information from each point to the origin, five pieces of information of the point cloud can be obtained, namely three-dimensional coordinates, echo intensity and distances (X, Y, Z, I and R) from the origin.

S102, establishing a mathematical model according to the relation between the distance from each point in the point cloud data to the origin of the coordinate system and the echo intensity threshold value of each point, and extracting a suspected target point according to the mathematical model.

The basic working principle of the laser radar is similar to that of a common radar, a transmitting system generates a transmitting signal, a return signal is generated after a target is detected, and the return signal is collected and processed by a receiving system to obtain required information. When the emitted laser beam radiation is irradiated to the target, the laser radar detects the echo radiation generated by reflection, refraction, scattering, transmission, and the like.

The target reflectivity is different, and the echo intensity value is different. In addition to this, the echo intensity value is also affected by the laser wavelength, target object reflectivity, laser measurement distance, laser incidence angle, atmospheric attenuation. The method and the device establish a mathematical relation model of the point cloud distance and the echo intensity threshold, classify the point cloud in the scanning area by using the model, and extract a suspected target point.

In one embodiment, extracting the suspected target points according to the echo intensities of the points in the point cloud data and the distances from the points to the origin of the coordinate system comprises: s201, establishing a mathematical model according to the relation between the distance from each point in the point cloud data to the origin of the coordinate system and the echo intensity threshold of each point; s202, calculating the echo intensity threshold of each point according to the mathematical model; s203, when the echo intensity value of a certain point in the point cloud data is larger than the corresponding echo intensity threshold value of the point, marking the point as a suspected target point.

Specifically, according to the laser radar equation, the mathematical relationship between the distance from each point to the origin of the coordinate system and the threshold value of the echo intensity can be obtained. The equation of the laser radar action distance is as follows:

wherein, P_RIs the received laser power (W), P_TIs the emitted laser power (W), G_TIs the transmit antenna gain, σ is the target scattering cross-section, D is the receive aperture (m), R is the distance (m) from a point to the origin of the coordinate system, η_AtmIs a single pass atmospheric transferCoefficient of transmission, η_SysIs the transmission coefficient of the optical system of the lidar.

Obtaining a mathematical relation model I of the point cloud echo intensity threshold and the distance from the point to the original point of the equipment according to the quantization modes and the laser wavelengths of different equipment_t(R)＝αP_R. Wherein, P_RFor receiving laser power (W), a distance R from the target to the origin of the device^βIn relation, β is set according to the target cross-sectional size. Alpha is a linear relation coefficient, and the coefficient is related to the reflectivity of the target to be measured.

After a scene and a target to be identified are determined, a parameter value of alpha can be obtained by obtaining prior point cloud data to perform experimental calculation. Therefore, according to the distance R from each point in the point cloud data to the origin of the coordinate system and the mathematical model, the corresponding echo intensity threshold value I of each point can be calculated_t(R)。

Let the five information of the ith point be (X)_i,Y_i,Z_i,I_i,R_i) Calculating the threshold value I of the echo intensity of the ith point according to the method_it(R) if I_i≤I_it(R), the ith point is not a suspected target point; if I_i>I_itThen the ith point is the suspected target point. And all the suspected target points obtained by calculation enter the next step of processing, and are recorded as a set Q, so that the high-echo-intensity point cloud segmentation is completed.

According to the step, the point cloud echo intensity and distance mathematical model is adopted to filter out low echo intensity points, only a small number of suspected target points with high echo intensity are reserved for next calculation, the calculation rate can be greatly improved, the real-time performance is improved, and the method has certain significance in engineering application.

S103, clustering the suspected target points according to a density-based region growing algorithm to obtain a plurality of suspected target point clusters.

The number of clusters to be clustered is usually specified by a common clustering algorithm, but in the application scenario, the environment is complex, and the number of targets is unknown, so the clustering algorithm for determining the number of clusters is not applicable. In a possible implementation mode, according to the DBSCAN clustering algorithm, the OPTICS clustering algorithm, the DENCLUE clustering algorithm and the concept of region growing, starting from one seed point, processing the points in a certain space radius, bringing the points meeting the requirements into the same cluster, and discarding the points not meeting the requirements.

As shown in fig. 3, a method for clustering suspected target points includes:

s301, a suspected target point is selected as a point to be processed.

Firstly, one suspected target point is selected from the suspected target points obtained in the steps as a point to be treated.

S302, all suspected target points within a preset radius of the point to be processed are combined into a suspected target point set.

And searching all suspected target points in the spatial neighborhood by taking the point to be processed as a sphere center and taking the E as a radius to form a suspected target point set. The radius E is related to the size of the target to be identified and can be set by itself.

S303, calculating the number of suspected target points in the set, and if the number is larger than or equal to a preset number, taking the set as a suspected target point cluster; and if the number is smaller than the preset number, taking the point to be processed as a noise point.

The preset number represents a self-adaptive dynamic parameter related to the distance R and represents the minimum number of points of each point to be processed in the neighborhood E, the parameter is related to the size of a target and the divergence angle theta of a laser beam, and a specific calculation formula can be obtained by fitting according to the number of the points of the target at a plurality of specific distances.

S304 repeats the above steps until the suspected target points that are not classified as the suspected target point cluster or classified as the noise point are processed, and a plurality of suspected target point clusters are obtained.

According to the step, the suspected target points are clustered and each cluster of point cloud is processed, so that part of point clouds with high return intensity noise can be eliminated, and the false alarm rate is effectively reduced.

S104, inputting the suspected target point cluster into the trained classification algorithm model to obtain a target identification result.

Before step S104 is executed, training a classification algorithm model, specifically, obtaining a gaussian distribution curve, and calculating a derivative of each point on the curve.

For example, obtaining a Gaussian distribution bell curveDividing the x-axis into N regions at intervals of DeltaL to obtain points (x)₀+n*ΔL,f(x₀+ n × Δ L)), and calculates the point derivative Δ δ (x)₀+ n Δ L). Wherein N is 0,1,2, … …, N.

Constructing a characteristic vector V (n) [ delta (x) ] according to the derivative of each point of the curve and the Gaussian distribution parameter₀),Δδ(x₀+ΔL,…,Δδx0+N*ΔL,μ,σ]。

Simulating Gaussian distribution curves of various parameters, constructing a plurality of characteristic vectors to obtain a characteristic vector set, and training a classification algorithm model according to the characteristic vector set. In one possible implementation, a classification algorithm model such as a naive bayes algorithm, a decision tree algorithm and the like based on supervised learning can be adopted.

By constructing the characteristic vector of the Gaussian distribution curve and adopting a supervised learning classification algorithm model, the classification efficiency and the accuracy can be greatly improved.

And after the trained classification algorithm model is obtained, inputting the suspected target point cluster into the trained classification algorithm model to obtain a target identification result. As shown in fig. 4, a target recognition method includes:

s401, performing plane truncation and cutting on each suspected target point cluster, projecting to obtain a two-dimensional distributed point cloud, and establishing a two-dimensional coordinate system.

In a possible implementation manner, each suspected target point cluster is cut by plane truncation along the laser emission direction, taking the suspected target point cluster Ui as an example, a midpoint cloud of the Ui is projected onto a cross section to form two-dimensional distribution, a two-dimensional coordinate system xoy is established in the distribution, a ray which is close to the equipment and parallel to the laser emission window is taken as an x axis, and a straight line which is perpendicular to the x axis in the cross section is taken as a y axis.

S402, a discrete point sequence in the vertical coordinate direction is obtained, and a fitting curve is constructed according to the discrete point sequence.

In one possible implementation, the x-axis direction is represented by x ═ l₀As a starting point, x ═ l_NAs an end point, the region is divided into N regions [ l ] at intervals of Δ l₀+(i-1)*Δl,l₀+ i Δ l), where i>The value of 1, i is related to the x-direction range. In each interval of the x axis, the value of the y axis direction is the maximum value of the point cloud in the interval in the y axis direction. Forming a discrete point sequence { (x1, y1), (x2, y2), …, (xn, yn) }, and curve-fitting points in the sequence in the direction from small to large values of x to obtain a fitted curve.

S403, calculating the derivative of the discrete point sequence on the fitting curve and constructing a feature vector.

S404, inputting the feature vectors into the trained classification algorithm model to obtain a target recognition result.

In a possible implementation manner, the constructed feature vectors are input into a trained classification algorithm model, the classification algorithm model performs detection and judgment, and if a fitting curve corresponding to the input feature vectors is approximately consistent with a gaussian distribution curve, the point cloud corresponding to the cluster is a target, so that target identification is completed. The classification algorithm model in the embodiment of the present disclosure is trained by using gaussian distribution curves of various parameters, and therefore, as long as a fitting curve corresponding to an input feature vector is approximately consistent with any one of the gaussian curves, a point cloud corresponding to the cluster is a target.

According to the laser radar target identification method based on the distance intensity correlation, the three-dimensional coordinates of the target can be obtained by utilizing the laser radar to identify the target compared with the image sensor, so that the direction of the target is accurately positioned, the accuracy of the identification result is improved, the laser radar can also detect the hidden target, and the fine characteristics are obtained; the laser radar is not limited by day and night, has stronger anti-interference capability and better stability and robustness, and has the advantage of wide application range.
