Patent attributes
A method and apparatus for processing information are provided. A specific embodiment of the method includes: identifying at least one obstacle from a point cloud collected by a lidar during a traveling process of a vehicle; for an obstacle in the at least one obstacle, determining an appearance rate of the obstacle within a life cycle corresponding to the obstacle; determining a confidence degree of a grid region of at least one grid region based on appearance rates of obstacles in the at least one obstacle; determining a target grid region from the at least one grid region based on the confidence degree, and determining whether an obstacle detected in the target grid region is an obstacle detected for a first time; and if yes, filtering out a point cloud corresponding to the obstacle detected in the target grid region for the first time.
