Patent 11625041 was granted and assigned to Zoox on April, 2023 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
Techniques are disclosed for a combined machine learned (ML) model that may generate a track confidence metric associated with a track and/or a classification of an object. Techniques may include obtaining a track. The track, which may include object detections from one or more sensor data types and/or pipelines, may be input into a machine-learning (ML) model. The model may output a track confidence metric and a classification. In some examples, if the track confidence metric does not satisfy a threshold, the ML model may cause the suppression of the output of the track to a planning component of an autonomous vehicle.
