Abstract

Systems and methods include machine learning models operating at different frequencies. An example method includes obtaining images at a threshold frequency from one or more image sensors positioned about a vehicle. Location information associated with objects classified in the images is determined based on the images. The images are analyzed via a first machine learning model at the threshold frequency. For a subset of the images, the first machine learning model uses output information from a second machine learning model, the second machine learning model being performed at less than the threshold frequency.

Claims (39)

1 . (canceled)

2 . A system comprising:

one or more cameras;

one or more processors coupled to the one or more cameras, the one or more processors configured to:

implement a first trained machine learned model configured to:

receive first image data from the one or more cameras; and

based on the first image data and at a first time, detect new object data not previously detected by the system; and

implement a second trained machine learned model configured to:

receive second image data from the one or more cameras and prior object data previously detected by the first trained machine learned model; and

based on the second image data and the prior object data previously detected and at a time prior to the first time, determine a location for the prior object data.

3 . The system of claim 2 , wherein the second model is not trained to output new objects.

4 . The system of claim 2 , wherein the second image data includes the first image data.

5 . The system of claim 2 , wherein a portion of the second image data is not included in the first image data.

6 . The system of claim 2 , wherein the first model and the second model operate at different sampling rates.

7 . The system of claim 2 , wherein the second model is a tracker or a detector.

8 . The system of claim 2 , wherein the second model is further configured to determine a location based on received inertial measurement unit information or global satellite system information.

9 . A method implemented by a system of one or more processors, the method comprising:

receiving first image data from a one or more cameras;

detecting, by a first trained machine learned model, new object data not previously detected by the system, based on the first image data at a first time;

receiving second image data from the one or more cameras;

receiving prior object data previously detected by the first trained machine learned model; and

determining at a time prior to the first time, by a second machine learned model, a location for the prior object data based on the second image data and the prior object data.

10 . The method of claim 9 , wherein the second model is not trained to output new objects.

11 . The method of claim 9 , wherein the second image data includes the first image data.

12 . The method of claim 9 , wherein a portion of the second image data is not included in the first image data.

13 . The method of claim 9 , wherein the first model and the second model operate at different sampling rates.

14 . The method of claim 9 , wherein the second model is a tracker or a detector.

15 . The method of claim 9 , wherein the second model is further configured to determine a location based on received inertial measurement unit information or global satellite system information.

16 . Non-transitory computer storage media storing instructions that when executed by a system of one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:

receiving first image data from a one or more cameras;

detecting, by a first trained machine learned model, new object data not previously detected by the system, based on the first image data at a first time;

receiving second image data from the one or more cameras;

receiving prior object data previously detected by the first trained machine learned model; and

determining at a time prior to the first time, by a second machine learned model, a location for the prior object data based on the second image data and the prior object data.

17 . The computer-storage media of claim 16 , wherein the second model is not trained to output new objects.

18 . The computer-storage media of claim 16 , wherein the second image data includes the first image data.

19 . The computer-storage media of claim 16 , wherein a portion of the second image data is not included in the first image data.

20 . The computer-storage media of claim 16 , wherein the first model and the second model operate at different sampling rates.

21 . The computer-storage media of claim 16 , wherein the second model is a tracker or a detector.
