Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a device for verifying estimated depth information. The device obtains an image of a scene, wherein the image comprises at least one object of interest having a set of points, obtains a height information for at least one point from the set of points of the object of interest, and estimates a first depth information for the at least one point, based on the obtained height information and detects a corresponding position of the at least one point in the obtained image. The device further receives, from another device, a second depth information for the at least one point, and determines a validity of the estimated second depth information, based on determining a measure of dissimilarity between the first depth information and the second depth information for the at least one point.

Abstract: A method and a computing device for object detection and tracking from a video input are described. The method and the computing device may be used to, for example, track objects of interest, such as lane markings, in traffic. A plurality of frames corresponding to a video may be analyzed in a spatiotemporal domain by a neural network. The neural network may be trained using data synthesized in the spatiotemporal domain.

Abstract: A system in a vehicle includes an image sensor to obtain images in an image sensor coordinate system and a depth sensor to obtain point clouds in a depth sensor coordinate system. Processing circuitry implements a neural network to determine a validation state of a transformation matrix that transforms the point clouds in the depth sensor coordinate system to transformed point clouds in the image sensor coordinate system. The transformation matrix includes rotation parameters and translation parameters.

Abstract: A perception system, comprising a set of reference sensors; a set of test sensors and a computing device, which is configured for receiving first training signals from the set of reference sensors and receiving second training signals from the set of test sensors, the set of reference sensors and the set of test sensors simultaneously exposed to a common scene; processing the first training signals to obtain reference images containing reference depth information associated with the scene; and using the second training signals and the reference images to train a neural network for transforming subsequent test signals from the set of test sensors into test images containing inferred depth information.

Abstract: A system and method for generating a high-density three-dimensional (3D) map are disclosed. The system comprises acquiring at least one high density image of a scene using at least one passive sensor; acquiring at least one new set of distance measurements of the scene using at least one active sensor; acquiring a previously generated 3D map of the scene comprising a previous set of distance measurements; merging the at least one new set of distance measurements with the previous set of upsampled distance measurements, wherein merging the at least one new set of distance measurements further includes accounting for a motion transformation between a previous high-density image frame and the acquired high density image and the acquired distance measurements; and overlaying the new set of distance measurements on the high-density image via an upsampling interpolation, creating an output 3D map.
