Method and device for optimized resource allocation in autonomous driving on the basis of reinforcement learning using data from lidar, radar, and camera sensor

摘要

A method for efficient resource allocation in autonomous driving by reinforcement learning is provided for reducing computation via a heterogeneous sensor fusion. This attention-based method includes steps of: a computing device instructing an attention network to perform a neural network operation by referring to attention sensor data, to calculate attention scores; instructing a detection network to acquire video data by referring to the attention scores and to generate decision data for the autonomous driving; instructing a drive network to operate the autonomous vehicle by referring to the decision data, to acquire circumstance data, and to generate a reward by referring to the circumstance data; and instructing the attention network to adjust parameters used for the neural network operation by referring to the reward. Thus, a virtual space where the autonomous vehicle optimizes the resource allocation can be provided by the method.
