Systems and methods for determining object intentions through visual attributes are provided. A method can include determining, by a computing system, one or more regions of interest. The regions of interest can be associated with surrounding environment of a first vehicle. The method can include determining, by a computing system, spatial features and temporal features associated with the regions of interest. The spatial features can be indicative of a vehicle orientation associated with a vehicle of interest. The temporal features can be indicative of a semantic state associated with signal lights of the vehicle of interest. The method can include determining, by the computing system, a vehicle intention. The vehicle intention can be based on the spatial and temporal features. The method can include initiating, by the computing system, an action. The action can be based on the vehicle intention.

System and method for determining object intention through visual attributes

Systems and methods for detecting and tracking objects are provided. In one example, a computer-implemented method includes receiving sensor data from one or more sensors. The method includes inputting the sensor data to one or more machine-learned models including one or more first neural networks configured to detect one or more objects based at least in part on the sensor data and one or more second neural networks configured to track the one or more objects over a sequence of sensor data. The method includes generating, as an output of the one or more first neural networks, a 3D bounding box and detection score for a plurality of object detections. The method includes generating, as an output of the one or more second neural networks, a matching score associated with pairs of object detections. The method includes determining a trajectory for each object detection.

End-to-end tracking of objects

Systems and methods for streaming sensor packets in real-time are provided. An example method includes obtaining a sensor data packet representing a first portion of a three-hundred and sixty degree view of a surrounding environment of a robotic platform. The method includes generating, using machine-learned model(s), a local feature map based at least in part on the sensor data packet. The local feature map is indicative of local feature(s) associated with the first portion of the three-hundred and sixty degree view. The method includes updating, based at least in part on the local feature map, a spatial map to include the local feature(s). The spatial map includes previously extracted local features associated with a previous sensor data packet representing a different portion of the three-hundred and sixty degree view than the first portion. The method includes determining an object within the surrounding environment based on the updated spatial map.
