Abstract
An autonomous vehicle is described herein. The autonomous vehicle includes several different types of sensor systems, such as image, lidar, and radar. The autonomous vehicle additionally includes a computing system that executes several different object classifier modules, wherein the object classifier modules are configured to identify types of objects that are in proximity to the autonomous vehicle based upon outputs of the sensor systems. The computing system additionally executes a Bayesian object classifier system that is configured to receive outputs of the object classifier modules and assign labels to objects captured in sensor signals based upon the outputs of the object classifier modules.
