Camera And Lidar Fusion For Point Cloud Semantic Segmentation, Ali Abdelkader

Theses and Dissertations

Perception is a fundamental component of any autonomous driving system. Semantic segmentation is the perception task of assigning semantic class labels to sensor inputs. While autonomous driving systems are currently equipped with a suite of sensors, much focus in the literature has been on semantic segmentation of camera images only. Research in the fusion of different sensor modalities for semantic segmentation has not been investigated as much. Deep learning models based on transformer architectures have proven successful in many tasks in computer vision and natural language processing. This work explores the use of deep learning transformers to fuse information from …
