Abstract

Techniques for accurately predicting and avoiding collisions with objects detected in an environment of a vehicle are discussed herein. A vehicle safety system can implement a model to output data indicating an intersection probability between the object and a portion of the vehicle in the future. The model may employ a rear collision filter, a distance filter, and a time to stop filter to determine whether a predicted collision may be a false positive, in which case the techniques may include refraining from reporting such predicted collision to other another vehicle computing device to control the vehicle.
