Abstract
A method, a computerized apparatus and a computer program product for parking slot detection. The method comprises obtaining an elevated perception map of a surrounding area around a vehicle. Each pixel in the elevated perception map is associated with a predetermined relative location to the vehicle. The elevated perception map comprises a plurality of functional layers. Values of pixels at different layers indicate an infrastructure segment or object located at corresponding relative locations to the vehicle. The method further comprises performing parking slot object detection in the elevated perception map. The parking slot object detection is performed using an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) to obtain one or more detected parking slot objects. The one or more detected parking slot objects are provided to autonomous driving systems and utilized to autonomously park vehicles in vacant parking slots that are selected therefrom.
