Abstract

A deep multimodal cross-layer intersecting fusion method, a terminal device and a storage medium are provided. The method includes: acquiring an RGB image and point cloud data containing lane lines, and pre-processing the RGB image and point cloud data; and inputting the pre-processed RGB image and point cloud data into a pre-constructed and trained semantic segmentation model, and outputting an image segmentation result. The semantic segmentation model is configured to implement cross-layer intersecting fusion of the RGB image and point cloud data. In the new method, a feature of a current layer of a current modality is fused with features of all subsequent layers of another modality, such that not only can similar or proximate features be fused, but also dissimilar or non-proximate features can be fused, thereby achieving full and comprehensive fusion of features. All fusion connections are controlled by a learnable parameter.
