Abstract
A system and method for instance-level lane detection for autonomous vehicle control are disclosed. A particular embodiment includes: receiving image data from an image data collection system associated with an autonomous vehicle; performing an operational phase comprising extracting roadway lane marking features from the image data, causing a plurality of trained tasks to execute concurrently to generate instance-level lane detection results based on the image data, the plurality of trained tasks having been individually trained with different features of training image data received from a training image data collection system and corresponding ground truth data, the training image data and the ground truth data comprising data collected from real-world traffic scenarios; causing the plurality of trained tasks to generate task-specific predictions of feature characteristics based on the image data and to generate corresponding instance-level lane detection results; and providing the instance-level lane detection results to an autonomous vehicle subsystem of the autonomous vehicle.
