Patent attributes
Systems, methods, tangible non-transitory computer-readable media, and devices for detecting objects are provided. For example, the disclosed technology can obtain a representation of sensor data associated with an environment surrounding a vehicle. Further, the sensor data can include sensor data points. A point classification and point property estimation can be determined for each of the sensor data points and a portion of the sensor data points can be clustered into an object instance based on the point classification and point property estimation for each of the sensor data points. A collection of point classifications and point property estimations can be determined for the portion of the sensor data points clustered into the object instance. Furthermore, object instance property estimations for the object instance can be determined based on the collection of point classifications and point property estimations for the portion of the sensor data points clustered into the object instance.
