US Patent 11703562 Semantic segmentation of radar data

Systems, methods, tangible non-transitory computer-readable media, and devices associated with sensor output segmentation are provided. For example, sensor data can be accessed. The sensor data can include sensor data returns representative of an environment detected by a sensor across the sensor's field of view. Each sensor data return can be associated with a respective bin of a plurality of bins corresponding to the field of view of the sensor. Each bin can correspond to a different portion of the sensor's field of view. Channels can be generated for each of the plurality of bins and can include data indicative of a range and an azimuth associated with a sensor data return associated with each bin. Furthermore, a semantic segment of a portion of the sensor data can be generated by inputting the channels for each bin into a machine-learned segmentation model trained to generate an output including the semantic segment.
