    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for producing a road layout model. The method includes capturing digital images having a perspective view, converting each of the digital images into top-down images, and conveying a top-down image of time t to a neural network that performs a feature transform to form a feature map of time t. The method also includes transferring the feature map of the top-down image of time t to a feature transform module to warp the feature map to a time t+1, and conveying a top-down image of time t+1 to form a feature map of time t+1. The method also includes combining the warped feature map of time t with the feature map of time t+1 to form a combined feature map, transferring the combined feature map to a long short-term memory (LSTM) module to generate the road layout model, and displaying the road layout model.

    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for fusing geometrical and Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) relative camera pose is provided. The method includes receiving two images having different camera poses. The method further includes inputting the two images into a geometric solver branch to return, as a first solution, an estimated camera pose and an associated pose uncertainty value determined from a Jacobian of a reproduction error function. The method also includes inputting the two images into a CNN branch to return, as a second solution, a predicted camera pose and an associated pose uncertainty value. The method additionally includes fusing, by a processor device, the first solution and the second solution in a probabilistic manner using Bayes' rule to obtain a fused pose.

    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for road layout prediction is provided. The method includes segmenting, by a first processor-based element, an RGB image to output pixel-level semantic segmentation results for the RGB image in a perspective view for both visible and occluded pixels in the perspective view based on contextual clues. The method further includes learning, by a second processor-based element, a mapping from the pixel-level semantic segmentation results for the RGB image in the perspective view to a top view of the RGB image using a road plane assumption. The method also includes generating, by a third processor-based element, an occlusion-aware parametric road layout prediction for road layout related attributes in the top view.

    Abstract: Methods and systems include training a model for rendering a three-dimensional volume using a loss function that includes a depth loss term and a distribution loss term that regularize an output of the model to produce realistic scenarios. A simulated scenario is generated based on an original scenario, with the simulated scenario including a different position and pose relative to the original scenario in a three-dimensional (3D) scene that is generated by the model from the original scenario. A self-driving model is trained for an autonomous vehicle using the simulated scenario.
