  • Publication number: 20230085938
    Abstract: Embodiments of systems and methods for diagnosing an object-detecting machine learning model for autonomous driving are disclosed herein. An input image is received from a camera mounted in or on a vehicle that shows a scene. A spatial distribution of movable objects within the scene is derived using a context-aware spatial representation machine learning model. An unseen object is generated in the scene that is not originally in the input image utilizing a spatial adversarial machine learning model. Via the spatial adversarial machine learning model, the unseen object is moved to different locations to fail the object-detecting machine learning model. An interactive user interface enables a user to analyze performance of the object-detecting machine learning model with respect to the scene without the unseen object and the scene with the unseen object.
