Abstract
The use of multiple sensors in modern day vehicular applications is necessary to provide a complete outlook of surroundings for advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and automated driving. The fusion of these sensors provides increased certainty in the recognition, localization and prediction of surroundings. A deep learning-based sensor fusion system is proposed to fuse two independent, multi-modal sensor sources. This system is shown to successfully learn the complex capabilities of an existing state-of-the-art sensor fusion system and generalize well to new sensor fusion datasets. It has high precision and recall with minimal confusion after training on several million examples of labeled multi-modal sensor data. It is robust, has a sustainable training time, and has real-time response capabilities on a deep learning PC with a single NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980Ti graphical processing unit (GPU).
