Abstract

The present invention relates to a method for estimating a position of an ego vehicle for autonomous driving including the steps of: receiving first sensor inputs from first sensors to extract visual road information; allowing the extracted visual road information to match first map data to produce a first matching score group; receiving second sensor inputs from second sensors; allowing the received second sensor inputs to match the second map data to produce a second matching score group; checking whether the first matching score group is consistent to the second matching score group; and estimating any one of the position candidates in the position candidate group of the ego vehicle as the position of the ego vehicle according to the consistency checking result.
