Patent attributes
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for generating vehicle heading predictions from point cloud data using a neural network. One of the methods includes receiving a plurality of different projections of point cloud data, wherein the point cloud data represents different sensor measurements of electromagnetic radiation reflected off a vehicle. Each of the plurality of projections of point cloud data is provided as input to a neural network subsystem trained to receive projections of point cloud data for a vehicle and to generate one or more vehicle heading classifications as an output. At the output of the neural network subsystem, one or more vehicle heading predictions is received.
