Abstract: A map matching method for autonomous driving includes extracting a first statistical map from 3D points contained in 3D map data; extracting a second statistical map from 3D points of surroundings which are obtained by a detection sensor simultaneously or after the previous extracting of the statistical map; dividing the second statistical map into a vertical-object part and a horizontal-object part; and performing map matching using the horizontal-object part and/or the vertical-object part and the first statistical map.

Abstract: Disclosed is a data processing system and method for the fusion of multiple heterogeneous sensors. The data processing system and method may synchronize the first merged sensing signal with the second sensing signal by performing origin time shifting (OTS) and tracklet movement compensation (TMC). Namely, it is possible to perform time synchronization to the heterogeneous sensors by post-processing data without synchronizing the data acquisition time points through a trigger. Also, the data processing system removes the noise points caused by direct and indirect interference included in the first sensing signal, thereby providing more accurate sensing signal data.
