Abstract

Techniques for determining labels and occupancy data for voxels and pixels representing object protrusions are disclosed. The occupancy status of voxels surrounding an occupied voxel is determined and used to determine the occupancy density of the occupied voxel. The loss for the occupied voxel is adjusted inversely proportionately to the occupancy density. The adjusted-loss voxel is used to train a machine-learned model to detect objects in an environment and, specifically, to more accurately detect objects having protrusions that may otherwise not be associated with the object. This model may be used to provide data used to control a vehicle.
