Abstract
A method for the detection of an object in an environment of a vehicle as a function of sensor signals of a sensor for acquiring the environment of the vehicle. The method includes: processing the sensor signals using a region proposal network to obtain at least one object hypothesis per anchor, the object hypothesis including an object probability and a bounding box; selecting the best object hypothesis on the basis of a quality model, the quality model being a function of the anchor and the bounding box of the object hypothesis; identifying redundant object hypotheses relative to the selected object hypothesis, the redundant object hypotheses being identified as a function of the anchors of the redundant object hypotheses, using a target function assigned to the region proposal network; and fusing the selected object hypothesis with the identified redundant object hypotheses for the object detection.
