Abstract
Systems and methods for bird's eye view (BEV) segmentation are provided. In one embodiment, a method includes receiving an input image from an image sensor on an agent. The input image is a perspective space image defined relative to the position and viewing direction of the agent. The method includes extracting features from the input image. The method includes estimating a depth map that includes depth values for pixels of the plurality of pixels of the input image. The method includes generating a 3D point map including points corresponding to the pixels of the input image. The method includes generating a voxel grid by voxelizing the 3D point map into a plurality voxels. The method includes generating a feature map by extracting feature vectors for pixels based on the points included in the voxels of the plurality of voxels and generating a BEV segmentation based on the feature map.
