Abstract
In the context of autonomous driving, the recognition of lane topologies is required for the vehicle to make well-informed and prudent decisions such as lane changes, navigation through intricate intersections, and smooth merging. Current autonomous driving systems rely solely on sensor (e.g. camera) inputs to recognize lane topology. As a result, poor sensor data will have a direct negative impact on lane topology recognition. The present disclosure augments lane topology reasoning with a standard definition navigation map for use in autonomous driving applications.
