FlexMap: Robust HD Map Construction under Flexible Camera Configurations

Read the original on arXiv Computer Vision →

FlexMap is a vectorized high‑definition map construction framework that works with flexible camera configurations without needing calibrated rigs or explicit 2D‑to‑BEV transformations. It replaces geometric projection with a geometry foundation model that encodes cross‑view 3D structure, and uses a spatial‑temporal enhancement module and a camera‑aware decoder to separate spatial reasoning from temporal aggregation. Experiments on nuScenes and Argoverse 2 show that FlexMap outperforms pose‑dependent baselines and remains accurate even when camera views are missing or pose estimates are inaccurate.

GS-Net: Heterogeneous Vehicle Data Reuse via Generalizable Plug-and-Play 3DGS Module

GS‑Net is a lightweight plug‑and‑play module that expands sparse Structure‑from‑Motion point clouds into dense Gaussian primitives, enabling cross‑sensor view synthesis for autonomous driving. It learns a generalizable initialization for 3D Gaussian Splatting, improving rendering quality for both interpolated and extrapolated camera viewpoints. The authors introduce CARLA‑NVS, a benchmark with 12 uniformly spaced cameras, and show that GS‑Net outperforms standard 3DGS by 2.08 dB PSNR on interpolated views and 1.86 dB on extrapolated views while being 50× faster to initialize.
