驾驶员注意力预测：BEVFormer与Transformer在DMS中的应用

发表于 更新于 分类于 ，
深入解析BEVFormer和Transformer架构在驾驶员注意力预测中的应用，涵盖多摄像头BEV感知、时序注意力机制、驾驶场景理解等前沿技术。

一、注意力预测问题定义

1.1 传统方法局限

传统的驾驶员注意力检测主要依赖：

  • 视线追踪
  • 头部姿态估计
  • 固定点分析

局限：

  • 只关注”看哪里”，不关注”应该看哪里”
  • 缺乏场景上下文
  • 无法预测注意力分配

1.2 BEV感知优势

Bird’s Eye View (BEV) 感知提供全局视角：

维度 传统方法 BEV方法
视角 单目/多目独立 统一BEV空间
场景理解 局部 全局
时序融合 困难 自然支持
注意力分配 无 可预测

二、BEVFormer架构

2.1 核心思想

BEVFormer将多摄像头图像转换为统一的鸟瞰图表示：

1
多摄像头输入 → 特征提取 → BEV Query → 空间交叉注意力 → 时序自注意力 → BEV特征

2.2 技术实现
