Obstacle localization based on probabilistic consensus

Abstract:

Various systems and methods for updating a current probability density function. The PDF includes a list of objects within a location. First information is received from a first remote device at a first position within the location. The first information includes a vehicle identification, a first PDF of the objects. Second information is received from a second remote device at a second position within the location. The second information includes a vehicle identification, a second PDF of the objects. A first rank for the first PDF is determined based on locations of the objects in the first PDF compared to locations of the objects in the current PDF. A second rank for the second PDF is determined. The first PDF and the second PDF are combined using the first rank and the second rank into a combined PDF. The current PDF based on the combined PDF.
