Abstract
A system and corresponding method for autonomous driving of a vehicle are provided. The system comprises at least one neural network (NN) that generates at least one output for controlling the autonomous driving. The system further comprises a main data path that routes bulk sensor data to the at least one NN and a low-latency data path with reduced latency relative to the main data path. The low-latency data path routes limited sensor data to the at least one NN which, in turn, employs the limited sensor data to improve performance of the at least one NN's processing of the bulk sensor data for generating the at least one output. Improving performance of the at least one NN's processing of the bulk sensor data enables the system to, for example, identify a safety hazard sooner, enabling the autonomous driving to divert the vehicle and avoid contact with the safety hazard.
