Abstract

According to some embodiments, a system pre-processes, via a first thread, a captured image perceiving an environment surrounding the ADV obtained from an image capturing device of the ADV. The system processes, via a second thread, the pre-processed image with a corresponding depth image captured by a ranging device of the ADV using a machine learning model to detect vehicle lanes. The system post-processes, via a third thread, the detected vehicle lanes to track the vehicle lanes relative to the ADV. The system generates a trajectory based on a lane line of the tracked vehicle lanes to control the ADV autonomously according to the trajectory.
