Abstract
A device and a method for detecting an object includes a camera configured for obtaining an image frame for an external environment of a vehicle, storage configured for storing a class classification model of the image frame, and a processor. The processor extracts a class for distinguishing the object in the image frame, determines class confidences for each of pixels of the image frame, generates a distribution of confidences for grayscales of pixels belonging to a class of interest based on the class confidences, generates a critical range for determining a grayscale of the class of interest based on the distribution of the confidences for the grayscales, and generates a mask based on the critical range.
