Abstract
Methods and systems are provided for detecting objects by utilizing uncertainties. In some aspects, a process can include steps for receiving, by an autonomous vehicle system, a frame of a scene with a detected object; estimating, by the autonomous vehicle system, an overall probability of the detected object in the frame; estimating, by the autonomous vehicle system, covariances for each state of at least one bounding box; and balancing, by the autonomous vehicle system, confidence values of the at least one bounding box based on the overall probability of the detected object and the covariances of each state of the at least one bounding box.
