    Abstract: Various embodiments of the present disclosure provide a system and method for lane marking localization that may be utilized by autonomous or semi-autonomous vehicles traveling within the lane. In the embodiment, the system comprises a locating device adapted to determine the vehicle's geographic location; a database; a region map; a response map; a camera; and a computer connected to the locating device, database, and camera, wherein the computer is adapted to: receive the region map, wherein the region map corresponds to a specified geographic location; generate the response map by receiving information form the camera, the information relating to the environment in which the vehicle is located; identifying lane markers observed by the camera; and plotting identified lane markers on the response map; compare the response map to the region map; and generate a predicted vehicle location based on the comparison of the response map and region map.

    Abstract: Techniques for performing a sensor calibration using sequential data is disclosed. An example method includes receiving, from a first camera located on a vehicle, a first image comprising at least a portion of a road comprising lane markers, where the first image is obtained by the camera at a first time; obtaining a calculated value of a position of an inertial measurement (IM) device at the first time; obtaining an optimized first extrinsic matrix of the first camera by adjusting a function of a first actual pixel location of a location of a lane marker in the first image and an expected pixel location of the location of the lane marker; and performing autonomous operation of the vehicle using the optimized first extrinsic matrix of the first camera when the vehicle is operated on another road or at another time.

    Abstract: Techniques for performing multi-sensor calibration on a vehicle are described. A method includes obtaining, from each of at least two sensors located on a vehicle, sensor data item of a road comprising a lane marker, extracting, from each sensor data item, a location information of the lane marker, and calculating extrinsic parameters of the at least two sensors based on determining a difference between the location information of the lane marker from each sensor data item and a previously stored location information of the lane marker.
