Abstract

A system and method for estimating free space including applying a machine learning model to camera images of a navigation area, where the navigation area is broken into cells, synchronizing point cloud data from the navigation area with the processed camera images, and associating probabilities that the cell is occupied and object classifications of objects that could occupy the cells with cells in the navigation area based on sensor data, sensor noise, and the machine learning model.
