Abstract
Road boundary detection is an important part of the perception of the autonomous driving. It is difficult to detect road boundaries of unstructured roads because there are no curbs. There are no clear boundaries on mine roads to distinguish areas within the road boundary line and areas outside the road boundary line. This paper proposes a real-time road boundary detection and tracking method by a 3D-LIDAR sensor. The road boundary points are extracted from the detected elevated point clouds above the ground point cloud according to the spatial distance characteristics and the angular features. Road tracking is to predict and update the boundary point information in real-time, in order to prevent false and missed detection. The experimental verification of mine road data shows the accuracy and robustness of the proposed algorithm.

Summary
Many special scenarios require the practical application of autonomous driving including industrial automation, construction, and mining [1]. Wang et al [5] proposed a double layer beam model method to effectively detect intersection roads. To solve the above challenging problems in the mine environment, this paper proposes a robust and effective method to detect the boundary line of mine roads. We optimize and stabilize the results of road detection through road boundary point tracking. The main contributions of this paper are as follows: We propose a method that can effectively detect the boundaries of mine roads. We propose a road boundary point tracking method based on Kalman filter, which can improve the stability and accuracy of detection results.
