contents In High-definition (HD) maps, lane elements constitute the majority of components and demand stringent localization requirements to ensure safe vehicle navigation. Vision lane detection with LiDAR position assignment is a prevalent method to acquire initial lanes for HD maps. However, due to incorrect vision detection and coarse camera-LiDAR calibration, initial lanes may deviate from their true positions within an uncertain range. To mitigate the need for manual lane correction, we propose a patch-wise lane correction network (PLCNet) to automatically correct the positions of initial lane points in local LiDAR images that are transformed from point clouds. PLCNet first extracts multi-scale image features and crops patch (ROI) features centered at each initial lane point. By applying ROIAlign, the fix-sized ROI features are flattened into 1D features. Then, a 1D lane attention module is devised to compute instance-level lane features with adaptive weights. Finally, lane correction offsets are inferred by a multi-layer perceptron and used to correct the initial lane positions. Considering practical applications, our automatic method supports merging local corrected lanes into global corrected lanes. Through extensive experiments on a self-built dataset, we demonstrate that PLCNet achieves fast and effective initial lane correction.
