    Abstract: A method for autonomously aligning a tow hitch ball on a towing vehicle and a trailer drawbar on a trailer through a human-machine interface (HMI) assisted visual servoing process. The method includes providing rearview images from a rearview camera. The method includes touching the tow ball on a display to register a location of the tow ball in the image and touching the drawbar on the display to register a location of a target where the tow ball will be properly aligned with the drawbar. The method provides a template pattern around the target on the image and autonomously moves the vehicle so that the tow ball moves towards the target. The method predicts a new location of the target as the vehicle moves and identifies the target in new images as the vehicle moves by comparing the previous template pattern with an image patch around the predicted location.

    Abstract: Examples of techniques for dynamically selecting a batch size used in vehicle camera image processing are disclosed. In one example implementation, a method includes generating, by a processing device, a batch table and a mode table. The method further includes determining, by the processing device, image processing performance requirements for a current mode of a vehicle using the mode table, the vehicle comprising a plurality of cameras configured to capture a plurality of images. The method further includes selecting, by the processing device, a batch size and a processing frequency based at least in part on the image processing performance requirements for the current mode of the vehicle. The method further includes processing, by an accelerator, at least a subset of the plurality of images based at least in part on the batch size and processing frequency.

    Abstract: Techniques for road scene primitive detection using a vehicle camera system are disclosed. In one example implementation, a computer-implemented method includes receiving, by a processing device having at least two parallel processing cores, at least one image from a camera associated with a vehicle on a road. The processing device generates a plurality of views from the at least one image that include a feature primitive. The feature primitive is indicative of a vehicle or other road scene entities of interest. Using each of the parallel processing cores, a set of primitives are identified from one or more of the plurality of views. The feature primitives are identified using one or more of machine learning and classic computer vision techniques. The processing device outputs, based on the plurality of views, result primitives based on the plurality of identified primitives from multiple views based on the plurality of identified entities.

    Abstract: A vehicle includes a plurality of on-vehicle cameras, and a controller executes a method to evaluate a travel surface by capturing images for fields of view of the respective cameras. Corresponding regions of interest for the images are identified, wherein each of the regions of interest is associated with the portion of the field of view of the respective camera that includes the travel surface. Portions of the images are extracted, wherein each extracted portion is associated with the region of interest in the portion of the field of view of the respective camera that includes the travel surface and wherein one extracted portion of the respective image includes the sky. The extracted portions of the images are compiled into a composite image datafile, and an image analysis of the composite image datafile is executed to determine a travel surface state. The travel surface state is communicated to another controller.

    Abstract: A vehicle, system and method of navigating a vehicle. The vehicle and system include a digital camera for capturing a target image of a target domain of the vehicle, and a processor. The processor is configured to: determine a target segmentation loss for training the neural network to perform semantic segmentation of a target image in a target domain, determine a value of a pseudo-label of the target image by reducing the target segmentation loss while providing aa supervision of the training over the target domain, perform semantic segmentation on the target image using the trained neural network to segment the target image and classify an object in the target image, and navigate the vehicle based on the classified object in the target image.
