Abstract
Systems and methods for monitoring the lane of an object in an environment of an autonomous vehicle are disclosed. The methods include receiving sensor data corresponding to the object, and assigning an instantaneous probability to each of a plurality of lanes based on the sensor data as a measure of likelihood that the object is in that lane at a current time. The methods also include generating a transition matrix for each of the plurality of lanes that encode one or more probabilities that the object transitioned to that lane from another lane in the environment or from that lane to another lane in the environment at the current time. The methods then include determining an assigned probability associated with each of the plurality of lanes based on the instantaneous probability and the transition matrix as a measure of likelihood of the object occupying that lane at the current time.
