+ ## SceneSeg
13
+ Self-driving cars are usually trained to detect specific object types, such as cars, pedestrians, buses, etc.
14
+ Such approaches are prone to failure cases when a self-driving car encounters an unusual object that it hasn't seen before,
15
+ e.g. a rickshaw, or if a self-driving car encounters a strange presentation of a known object, e.g. a cyclist that has fallen over.
16
+ In these scenarios, self-driving cars are unable to detect these critical objects leading to dangerous driving outcomes.
17
+ To address this, we have developed SceneSeg, a neural network that is able to segment all important foreground objects,
18
+ irrespective of what that object is. SceneSeg is able to implicitly learn the visual features of foreground objects such as cars,
19
+ buses, vans, pedestrians, cyclists, animals, rickshaws, trucks and other similar objects, even though it has not been explicitly
20
+ trained to detect these object types. SceneSeg is also able to detect objects that are outside of its training data, such as tyres
21
+ rolling down a highway, or a loose trailer. SceneSeg can also detect objects in unusual presentations that it hasn't seen during training.
22
+ SceneSeg performs robustly across challenging weather and lighting conditions, including during heavy rain, snow and low light driving.
23
+ SceneSeg performs out of the box on roads across the world without any parameter tuning. SceneSeg provides self-driving cars with a core
24
+ safety layer, helping to address 'long-tail' edge cases which plauge object-level detectors.
