Abstract
Systems and methods for image-based perception. The methods comprise: obtaining, by a computing device, images captured by a plurality of cameras with overlapping fields of view; generating, by the computing device, spatial feature maps indicating locations of features in the images; defining, by the computing device, predicted cuboids at each location of an object in the images based on the spatial feature maps; and assigning, by the computing device, at least two cuboids of said predicted cuboids to a given object when predictions from images captured by separate cameras of the plurality of cameras should be associated with a same detected object.
