Systems for determining object importance in on-road driving scenarios and methods thereof

Abstract:

Determining object importance in vehicle control systems can include obtaining, for a vehicle in operation, an image of a dynamic scene, identifying an object type associated with one or more objects in the image, determining, based on the object type and a goal associated with the vehicle, an importance metric associated with the one or more objects, and controlling the vehicle based at least in part on the importance metric associated with the one or more objects.
