In this contribution, we propose an system setup for the detection andclassification of objects in autonomous driving applications. The recognition algo-rithm is based upon deep neural networks, operating in the 2D image domain. Theresults are combined with data of a stereo camera system to finally incorporatethe 3D object information into our mapping framework. The detection systemis locally running upon the onboard CPU of the vehicle. Several network archi-tectures are implemented and evaluated with respect to accuracy and run-timedemands for the given camera and hardware setup.
The paper describes a systematic approach for a precise short-time cloud coverage prediction based on an optical system. We present a distinct pre-processing stage that uses a model based clear sky simulation to enhance the cloud segmentation in the images. The images are based on a sky imager system with fish-eye lens optic to cover a maximum area. After a calibration step, the image is rectified to enable linear prediction of cloud movement. In a subsequent step, the clear sky model is estimated on actual high dynamic range images and combined with a threshold based approach to segment clouds from sky. In the final stage, a multi hypothesis linear tracking framework estimates cloud movement, velocity and possible coverage of a given photovoltaic power station. We employ a Kalman filter framework that efficiently operates on the rectified images. The evaluation on real world data suggests high coverage prediction accuracy above 75%.
