MULTI-RESOLUTION IMAGE PATCHES FOR PREDICTING AUTONOMOUS NAVIGATION PATHS

Abstract:

In examples, image data representative of an image of a field of view of at least one sensor may be received. Source areas may be defined that correspond to a region of the image. Areas and/or dimensions of at least some of the source areas may decrease along at least one direction relative to a perspective of the at least one sensor. A downsampled version of the region (e.g., a downsampled image or feature map of a neural network) may be generated from the source areas based at least in part on mapping the source areas to cells of the downsampled version of the region. Resolutions of the region that are captured by the cells may correspond to the areas of the source areas, such that certain portions of the region (e.g., portions at a far distance from the sensor) retain higher resolution than others.
