Abstract
A system comprising a computer including a processor and a memory, the memory including instructions such that the processor is programmed to: process vehicle sensor data with a deep neural network to generate a prediction indicative of one or more objects based on the data and determine an object uncertainty corresponding to the prediction and when the object uncertainty is greater than an uncertainty threshold, segment the vehicle sensor data into a foreground portion and a background portion. Classify the foreground portion as including an unseen object class when a foreground uncertainty is greater than a foreground uncertainty threshold; classify the background portion as including unseen background when a background uncertainty is greater than a background uncertainty threshold; and transmit the data and a data classification to a server.
