Abstract
Systems and method are provided for controlling a vehicle. In one embodiment, an object classification method includes receiving sensor data associated with an object observed by a sensor system of an autonomous vehicle and determining, with a processor, a bounding curve associated with the sensor data. A plurality of bounding curve features are determined based on a set of convexities and concavities associated with the bounding curve. The object is classified by applying the plurality of bounding curve features to a machine learning model and receiving a classification output.
