Abstract
The described aspects and implementations enable efficient calibration of a sensing system of an autonomous vehicle (AV). In one implementation, disclosed is a method and a system to perform the method, the system including the sensing system configured to collect sensing data and a data processing system, operatively coupled to the sensing system. The data processing system is configured to identify reference point(s) in an environment of the AV, determine multiple estimated locations of the reference point(s), and adjust parameters of the sensing system based on a loss function representative of differences of the estimated locations.
