Abstract
System and method for semantic segmentation of point clouds. The method may include: generating, via a first neural network, a birds-eye-view (BEV) image of the environment from the aggregated point cloud; generating, via a second neural network, a labelled BEV image from the BEV image, wherein each pixel in the labelled BEV image is associated with a class label from a set of class labels; generating a BEV feature map; and generating, via a third neural network, the road surface segmentation map in the form of a refined labelled BEV image based on the labelled BEV image by smoothing the labelled BEV image using the BEV feature map, wherein each pixel in the refined labelled BEV image is associated with a class label from the set of class labels.
