Abstract
A method for classifying objects into object classes on the basis of information of an ultrasonic sensor of a vehicle, including receiving multiple detections of a vehicles's ultrasonic sensor. Items of position information and directional information are assigned to each detection. The position information indicates a reflection location where an ultrasonic sensor's signal was reflected and the directional information indicates a direction along which the ultrasonic signal propagates between the reflection location and ultrasonic sensor. The method includes forming detection clusters based on the received detections, with one cluster including multiple detections; calculating statistical distribution information of the position information and the directional information of the detections assigned to the respective cluster; and classifying an object into an object class based on the statistical distribution information of the position information and the directional information of the clusters.
