Abstract

The unmanned air-ground vehicle system has been successfully applied in civil and military domains. Collaborative vision-based target geolocation with this system can provide an enduring and accurate estimate of moving target state. Traditional decentralized information filter (DIF) treated each platform in the system identically. In fact, the observation capabilities of aerial and ground platform typically differ from each other due to different configurations and changing sensor noises. Without considering these differences, the resources of each platform cannot be fully utilized. To handle the issue, we develop a weighted DIF for geolocating of moving targets via air-ground collaboration. Specifically, it can produce a weighted factor autonomously for each platform based on the similarity of tracks from the air-ground system. Then, it is able to have more accurate global estimates than the traditional filter. Finally, simulation experiments and actual tests are conducted and the results are presented to validate the efficacy of the proposed method. Additional details can be seen in our video submission.

Pretraining has recently greatly promoted the development of natural language processing (NLP)
We show that M6 outperforms the baselines in multimodal downstream tasks, and the large M6 with 10 parameters can reach a better performance
We propose a method called M6 that is able to process information of multiple modalities and perform both single-modal and cross-modal understanding and generation
The model is scaled to large model with 10 billion parameters with sophisticated deployment, and the 10 -parameter M6-large is the largest pretrained model in Chinese
Experimental results show that our proposed M6 outperforms the baseline in a number of downstream tasks concerning both single modality and multiple modalities We will continue the pretraining of extremely large models by increasing data to explore the limit of its performance
