Abstract

A system, computer-readable medium, and method for improving semantic mapping and traffic participant detection for an autonomous vehicle are provided. The methods and systems may include obtain a two-dimensional image, obtain a three-dimensional point cloud comprising a plurality of points, perform semantic segmentation on the image to map objects with a discrete pixel color, and overlaying the semantic segmentation on the image to generate a updated image, generate superpixel clusters from the semantic segmentation to group like pixels together, project the point cloud onto the updated image comprising the superpixel clusters, and remove points determined to be noise/errors from the point cloud based on determining noisy points within each superpixel cluster.
