  2. 2. Deep Learning Applications for Autonomous Driving

    Author : Luca Caltagirone; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; sensor fusion; computer vision; deep learning; autonomous driving; robotic perception and planning;

    Abstract : This thesis investigates the usefulness of deep learning methods for solving two important tasks in the field of driving automation: (i) Road detection, and (ii) driving path generation. Road detection was approached using two strategies: The first one considered a bird's-eye view of the driving scene obtained from LIDAR data, whereas the second carried out camera-LIDAR fusion in the camera perspective.
