  • Publication number: 20240161512
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a system generates an image using either a first or a second image signal processing (ISP) algorithm, where the first or second ISP algorithm is applied to raw image data of a camera of an autonomous driving vehicle (ADV) to generate the image. The system applies a machine learning model to the image to identify a representation of an obstacle, where the machine learning model is generated by a few shots learning algorithm that contrasts labeled data of a positive training sample from images corresponding to the first and second ISP algorithms to labeled data of a negative training sample from images corresponding to the first and second ISP algorithm. The system determines a classification and a location of the obstacle based on the representation of the obstacle. The system plans a motion control of the ADV based on the classification and location of the detected object.
