Abstract
System, methods, and other embodiments described herein relate to improving a representation of objects in a surrounding environment. In one embodiment, a method includes, in response to receiving sensor data depicting the surrounding environment including a corridor that defines a left boundary and a right boundary, identifying at least one object from the sensor data. The method includes transforming segmented data from the sensor data that represents the object into a bounding box by defining the bounding box according to six points relative to the corridor. The method includes providing the six points of the bounding box as a reduced representation of the object.
