A method for multi-label image classification in a convolutional neural network (CNN) is provided that includes forming a composite image from a plurality of clipped images, and processing the composite image by the CNN to generate a probability vector for each clipped image of the plurality of clipped images, wherein a length of a probability vector is equal to a number of classes the CNN is designed to classify.

Multi-label image classification in a deep learning network

In described examples of a method for quantizing data for a convolutional neural network (CNN) is provided. A set of data is received and quantized the using a power-of-2 parametric activation (PACT2) function. The PACT2 function arranges the set of data as a histogram and discards a portion of the data corresponding to a tail of the histogram to form a remaining set of data. A clipping value is determined by expanding the remaining set of data to a nearest power of two value. The set of data is then quantized using the clipping value. With PACT2, a model can be quantized either using post training quantization or using quantization aware training. PACT2 helps a quantized model to achieve close accuracy compared to the corresponding floating-point model.

Techniques including receiving a distorted image from a camera disposed about a vehicle, detecting, in the distorted image, corner points associated with a target object, mapping the corner points to a distortion corrected domain based on one or more camera parameters, mapping the corner points and lines between the corner points back to a distorted domain based on the camera parameters, interpolating one or more intermediate points to generate lines between the corner points in the distortion corrected domain mapping the corner points and the lines between the corner points back to a distorted domain based on the camera parameters, and adjusting a direction of travel of the vehicle based on the located target object.
