Abstract
Disclosed herein are systems, methods, and computer program products for operating a sensor system. The methods comprise: receiving, by a computing device, a track for an object; classifying, by the computing device, the track as an infant track or a mature track based on a type of sensor detection used to generate the track, a total number of cycles in which the lidar detections were generated, a total number of sensor detections included in the track, an object type associated with the track, an object speed, and/or a distance between the object and the sensor system; using, by the computing device, radar data to modify a speed of the track in response to the track being classified as an infant track.
