Abstract
Methods of processing vehicle sensor information for object detection may include capturing generating a feature map based on captured sensor information, associating with each pixel of the feature map a prior box having a set of two or more width priors and a set of two or more height priors, determining a confidence value of each height prior and each width prior, outputting an indication of a detected object based on a highest confidence height prior and a highest confidence width prior, and performing a vehicle operation based on the output indication of a detected object. Embodiments may include determining for each pixel of the feature map one or more prior boxes having a center value, a size value, and a set of orientation priors, determining a confidence value for each orientation prior, and outputting an indication of the orientation of a detected object based on the highest confidence orientation.
