Abstract
A system receives an observation probability distribution function associated with a target object that was detected by sensors of an autonomous vehicle. The system identifies a target attribute of the target object, and detects a target attribute value associated with the target object. The system determines a first probability distribution function representing a probability of the autonomous vehicle detecting an object having an object label, determines a second probability distribution function defining a probability of the autonomous vehicle detecting the target attribute, determines a third probability distribution function defining a probability of the target attribute being present for the target object based on the target attribute value, and determines an attribute probability distribution function defining a probability that the target attribute is actually present for the target object. The system executes vehicle control instructions that cause the autonomous vehicle to adjust driving operations based on the attribute probability distribution function.
