Pedestrian Planar LiDAR Pose (PPLP) Network for Oriented Pedestrian Detection Based on Planar LiDAR and Monocular Images

Abstract Pedestrian detection is an important task for human-robot interaction and autonomous driving applications. Most previous pedestrian detection methods rely on data collected from three-dimensional (3D) Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) sensors in addition to camera imagery, which can be expensive to deploy. In this letter, we propose a novel Pedestrian Planar LiDAR Pose Network …

Multiresolution Multimodal Sensor Fusion for Remote Sensing Data With Label Uncertainty

Abstract In remote sensing, each sensor can provide complementary or reinforcing information. It is valuable to fuse outputs from multiple sensors to boost overall performance. Previous supervised fusion methods often require accurate labels for each pixel in the training data. However, in many remote sensing applications, pixel-level labels are difficult or infeasible to obtain. In …

Bio-LSTM: A Biomechanically Inspired Recurrent Neural Network for 3D Pedestrian Pose and Gait Prediction

Abstract In applications such as autonomous driving, it is important to understand, infer, and anticipate the intention and future behavior of pedestrians. This ability allows vehicles to avoid collisions and improve ride safety and quality. This paper proposes a biomechanically inspired recurrent neural network (Bio-LSTM) that can predict the location and 3D articulated body pose …

Multiple Instance Choquet Integral For MultiResolution Sensor Fusion

Abstract Imagine you are traveling to Columbia,MO for the first time. On your flight to Columbia, the woman sitting next to you recommended a bakery by a large park with a big yellow umbrella outside. After you land, you need directions to the hotel from the airport. Suppose you are driving a rental car, you …
