Pytorch UWB Localization

Official page of RONet, which is published @IROS'19

Since the original code is based on Tensorflow, now I have ported the original algorithm to PyTorch.

before

ToDo

  • Port RONet
  • Port Bi-LSTM
  • Run on test data
  • Set training pipeline
  • Visualize training procedure
  • Autosave the best model

Environments

Please refer to requirements.txt

Descriptions

What is the UWB sensor?

UWB is abbv. for Ultra-wideband, and the sensor outputs only 1D range data.

validation

More explanations are provided in this paper.

In summary, UWB data are likely to be vulnerable to noise, multipath problems, and so forth.

Thus, we leverage the nonlinearity of deep learning to tackle that issue.

Data

All data are contained in uwb_dataset and a total of eight sensors are deployed, whose positions are as follows:

idnames

And each csv consists N (the num. of sequences) x 10 whose columns denotes:

range @id0, range @id1, range @id2, range @id3, range @id4, range @id5, range @id6, range @id7, x of GT, y of GT

Note that our experiment was conducted on real-world data by using Pozyx UWB sensors and the motion capture system.

(Please kindly keep in mind that Pozyx systems do not give precise range data :( )

Training

The training scripts come with several options, which can be listed with the --help flag.

python3 main.py --help

The point is that it only takes a few minutes because the data of UWB are lightweight and simple! :)

Training results will be saved under the results folder. To resume a previous training, run

python3 main.py --resume [path_to_previous_model]

Validation

python3 main.py --evaluate [path_to_trained_model]
