Abstract
A method includes obtaining, using at least one processing device, image data associated with a scene. The method also includes identifying, using the at least one processing device, multiple line segments based on the image data. The method further includes identifying, using the at least one processing device, one or more boundaries around one or more objects detected in the image data. In addition, the method includes estimating, using the at least one processing device, a position of a vanishing point associated with the image data based on multiple collections of the line segments while excluding, from the multiple collections, one or more of the line segments that overlap with or that are included within the one or more boundaries.
