Is it possible to use ARReferenceImage objects created programatically from the images on iOS 11.3.1

The images that I want to track downloaded from the web service and stored locally. I'm creating the ARImageReference objects from them using the following code:

Code Block 
guard
		let image = UIImage(contentsOfFile: imageLocalPath),
		let cgImage = image.cgImage
else {
		return nil
}
return ARReferenceImage(cgImage, orientation: .up, physicalWidth: 0.12)

The session configured depending on the current iOS version since ARImageTrackingConfiguration not available for iOS 11:

Code Block 
private lazy var configuration: ARConfiguration = {
		if #available(iOS 12.0, *),
				ARImageTrackingConfiguration.isSupported {
				return ARImageTrackingConfiguration()
		}
		return ARWorldTrackingConfiguration()
}()
if #available(iOS 12.0, *),
		let imagesTrackingConfig = configuration as? ARImageTrackingConfiguration {
		imagesTrackingConfig.trackingImages = referenceImages
} else if let worldTrackingConfig = configuration as? ARWorldTrackingConfiguration {
		worldTrackingConfig.detectionImages = referenceImages
}
session.run(configuration, options: [.resetTracking, .removeExistingAnchors])

The code above works fine for iOS 12 and 13 even if I use ARWorldTrackingConfiguration. Images correctly detected by the ARKit. But when I try to run it on iOS 11.3.1, the app immediately crashes with the following error:

Assert: /BuildRoot/Library/Caches/com.apple.xbs/Sources/AppleCV3D/AppleCV3D-1.13.11/library/VIO/OdometryEngine/src/FrameDownsampleNode/FrameDownsampler.cpp, 62: std::abs(staticcast(aspect1) - staticcast(srcframe.image.width * outputframeheight)) < maxslack (lldb)

Is it possible that the dynamic markers creation programmatically is not available for the iOS version below 12.0 or am I doing something wrong? Unfortunately, I wasn't able to find any information regarding the specific versions. Thank you.
