Abstract: A method for training a neural network including receiving a plurality of images of a driver's field of view, generating a depth information, a driver's gaze probability and a known object indication for each of the plurality of images, estimating a probability of an unknown object within each of the plurality of images in response to the depth information, the driver's gaze probability and the known object indication, generating a plurality of annotated images in response to annotating each of the plurality of images having the probability of the unknown object exceeding a threshold probability to identify the unknown object, wherein each of the plurality of annotated images is annotated to identify the unknown object, and training the neural network in response to the plurality of annotated images.

Abstract: A system for classifying received signals from a radar system into noise or a detection includes a source of a radar energy map and a memory that stores an integral image data structure for computing an integral image. The system includes a processor in communication with the source and the memory programmed to: generate an initial image including initial cells each having an energy value based on the radar energy map; compute the integral image based on the initial image; determine a coordinate location of an initial cell; determine coordinate locations of indices associated with corners of a neighborhood surrounding the initial cell; determine an energy sum of the neighborhood based on the indices and a value of respective cells from the integral image; determine an estimated noise associated with the initial cell based on the energy sum; and determine whether the initial cell indicates the detection of an object.
