The motion segmentation task is considered in the application context of automotive Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM), where we often need to distinguish between the static parts of the environment with respect to which we localize the vehicle, and non-stationary objects that should not be included in the map for localization. Non-stationary objects do not provide repeatable readouts, because they can be in motion, like vehicles and pedestrians, or because they do not have a rigid, stable surface, like trees and lawns. The proposed approach exploits images synthesized from the received intensity data yielded by the modern LiDARs along with the usual range measurements. We demonstrate that non-stationary objects can be detected using neural network models trained with 2-D grayscale images in the supervised or unsupervised training process. This concept makes it possible to alleviate the lack of large datasets of 3-D laser scans with point-wise annotations for non-stationary objects. The point clouds are filtered using the corresponding intensity images with labeled pixels. Finally, we demonstrate that the detection of non-stationary objects using our approach improves the localization results and map consistency in a laser-based SLAM system.Pyramid architecture is a useful strategy to fuse multi-scale features in deep monocular depth estimation approaches. However, most pyramid networks fuse features only within the adjacent stages in a pyramid structure. To take full advantage of the pyramid structure, inspired by the success of DenseNet, this paper presents DCPNet, a densely connected pyramid network that fuses multi-scale features from multiple stages of the pyramid structure.
