Robust Perception Architecture Design for Automotive Cyber-Physical Systems

Abstract

In emerging automotive cyber-physical systems (CPS), accurate environmental perception is critical to achieving safety and performance goals. Enabling robust perception for vehicles requires solving multiple complex problems related to sensor selection/ placement, object detection, and sensor fusion. Current methods address these problems in isolation, which leads to inefficient solutions. We present PASTA, a novel framework for global co-optimization of deep learning and sensing for dependable vehicle perception. Experimental results with the Audi-TT and BMW-Minicooper vehicles show how PASTA can find robust, vehicle-specific perception architecture solutions.
