Abstract
A computer implemented method for object detection includes: determining a grid, the grid comprising a plurality of grid cells; determining, for a plurality of time steps, for each grid cell, a plurality of respective radar detection data, each radar detection data indicating a plurality of radar properties; determining, for each time step, a respective radar map indicating a pre-determined radar map property in each grid cell; converting the respective radar detection data of the plurality of grid cells for the plurality of time steps to a point representation of pre-determined first dimensions; converting the radar maps for the plurality of time steps to a map representation of pre-determined second dimensions, wherein the pre-determined first dimensions and the pre-determined second dimensions are at least partially identical; concatenating the point representation and the map representation to obtain concatenated data; and carrying out object detection based on the concatenated data.
