Abstract
Obtaining the accurate and real-time state of surrounding objects is essential for automated vehicle planning and decision-making to ensure safe driving. In complex traffic scenarios, object occlusion, clutter interference, and limited sensor detection capabilities lead to false alarms and missed object detection, making it challenging to ensure the stability of tracking and state prediction. To address these challenges, in this study, we developed a robust multi-object detection and tracking method for moving objects based on radar and camera data fusion. First, the radar and camera perform target detection independently, and the detection results are correlated in the image plane to generate a random finite set with an object type. Then, based on the Gaussian mixture probability hypothesis density algorithm framework, the tracking process is improved using elliptic discriminant thresholds, an attenuation function, and simplified pruning methods. The experimental results demonstrate that the improved algorithm can accurately estimate the number and state of targets in object occlusion, measurement loss scenarios, and achieve robust continuous multi-object tracking. The proposed method could guide the design of safer and more efficient intelligent driving systems.

Focal Loss for Dense Object Detection

TL;DR: This paper proposes to address the extreme foreground-background class imbalance encountered during training of dense detectors by reshaping the standard cross entropy loss such that it down-weights the loss assigned to well-classified examples, and develops a novel Focal Loss, which focuses training on a sparse set of hard examples and prevents the vast number of easy negatives from overwhelming the detector during training.
