End-to-End Self-Driving Approach Independent of Irrelevant Roadside Objects With Auto-Encoder

On a highway, the frequency of occurrence of irrelevant features, such as trees, varies a lot in different scenes. A limitation of the deep conventional neural networks used in end-to-end self-driving systems is that if the incoming images contain too much information, it makes it difficult for the network to extract only the subset of features required for decision making. Consequently, while exi...
