Abstract:
Methods and system for detecting an object are provided. In one embodiment, a method includes: receiving, by a processor, image data from a single camera, the image data representing an image of scene; determining, by the processor, stixel data from the image data; detecting, by the processor, an object based on the stixel data; and selectively generating, by the processor, an alert signal based on the detected object.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for detecting objects from a moving platform are provided. The method includes receiving, from a camera coupled to the moving platform, first and second image frames, wherein the second image frame is subsequent in time to the first image frame. Within the first image frame, a first target is defined characterizing the location of an object detected in the first image frame. A first score associated with the first target and a second score associated with the second target are determined, and a first predicted target is determined based on a tracking process applied to the first target. A third score associated with the first predicted target is determined. The method determines a merged target corresponding to the second target when the second score is greater than the third score and a proximity measure between the second target and the first predicted target is above a threshold.
Abstract:
Methods and systems are provided for detecting an object in an image. In one embodiment, a method includes: receiving, by a processor, data from a single sensor, the data representing an image; dividing, by the processor, the image into vertical sub-images; processing, by the processor, the vertical sub-images based on deep learning models; and detecting, by the processor, an object based on the processing.
Abstract:
A method of creating a shadow-reduced image from a captured image. An image of a scene exterior of a vehicle is captured by a vehicle-based image capture device. A first object profile of an object in the captured image is identified by a processor. A second object profile of the object is detected using a non-vision object detection device. Shadows in the captured image are removed by the processor as a function of the first object profile and the second object profile. A shadow reduced image is utilized in a vehicle-based application.
