Abstract: A method for constructing a lane level map using a three-dimensional point cloud map is provided. According to the method, during scan matching for estimating the location of a vehicle in the process of automatically constructing a 3D high-definition map, the amount of computation is reduced by reducing the size of a target 3D map. Thereby the method is performed fast and accurate position estimation. In addition, even if the position estimation by scan matching fails, more robust position estimation is possible by estimating the location of the vehicle using LiDAR odometry performed in parallel. The method builds and merges a precise lane map with a pre-built 3D point cloud map using such robust localization to build a more precise 3D precise map and a lane node-link map. By using these three-dimensional precise maps and maps that generate node-links in lanes, a more effective route planning algorithm that can be provided.

Abstract: A semiconductor memory device includes a memory cell array, an error correction code (ECC) engine, a refresh control circuit, a scrubbing control circuit and a control logic circuit. The refresh control circuit generates refresh row addresses for refreshing a memory region on memory cell rows in response to a first command received from a memory controller.

The ECC engine reads first data corresponding to a first codeword, from at least one sub-page in the first memory cell row, corrects at least one error bit in the first codeword and writes back the corrected first codeword in a corresponding memory location.
