Abstract

A method and apparatus for implementing a method are disclosed. The method includes providing point cloud data to a machine learning algorithm, the point cloud data detected in the vicinity of an autonomous vehicle. The method further includes differentiating, via the machine learning algorithm, in the point cloud, data directly representing a location of a first object and data indirectly representing a location of a second object. The method includes transforming the data indirectly representing the location of the second object into data directly representing the location of the second object and generating corrected point cloud data based on the data directly representing the location of the first object and the data directly representing the location of the second object. The method includes outputting the corrected point cloud data to the autonomous vehicle.
