autopilol will be the eventual name of a GitHub repo where you can download software onto a raspberry pi to complete the fsd system that Tesla never could

Nvidia's line-smoothing algorithm has more object permanence than autopilot lol.

i still don't understand what super special secret machine vision they're doing that they can't implement a simple object tracker running on top of it. like sure they're running whatever deep learning segmentation/classification network with no memory on every frame, but you can still do some post-processing on top of that and enforce movement rules at least on the shiny display you show the driver so that vehicles don't wobble around the road phasing in and out of existence

you can clearly see the reason why they don't have any object permanence on the display shown in these autopilot videos. stuff that is there is randomly disappearing but also a bunch of stuff that isn't there is randomly appearing. Tesla's object classifier is noisy as poo poo, and if there were any object permanence the scene would quickly fill up with phantom objects and the car wouldn't be able to move.

LiDAR effectively solves the noise problem because if there isn't a LiDAR return for a point there's almost certainly nothing there that would be problematic to pass through. but musk hates LiDAR so...

the only way that no object permanence makes sense is if you’re getting a ton of false positives and your virtual roadway would load up with vehicles that aren’t actually there.

congratulations that's exactly the reason

a single false positive is enough to break any "object permanence" algorithm

take it from me, the guy who did some opencv for a few months one time and couldn't implement some form of object permanence in my face detection app

I mean is it just him being dumb and being like "humans only use eyes to drive so so should my magic save-the-world car"? or is there a deeper-seated reason?

the techniques for this case should be something like averaging frames over time, and applying like a low pass filter (or something more advanced) so that the algorithm does not thrash around reacting wildly to any sporadic input it may get

objects can appear suddenly, but they shouldn’t flicker in and out of existence after being detected

I thought the rumor mill was that mobile eye noticed what Tesla was using their system for, had safety concerns, and when those weren't addressed they pulled their own licensing.

i thought it was musk refused to pay for lidar licensing. all teslas up until the licensing battle have lidar, but it is disabled.

all the talk about using cameras because eyes are all we need is bluster to justify their loss of the actual good system.

layering proper hard logic like object permance forcing the ml model to continue to see a bus if it claimed one existed previously remains mostly open research at this point. lot of people working on it, but hard to argue that we're better off than in the 80s there (i.e. the ml layer much better, but the integration just as crude).

ml models working over time usually also do have some recurrence, remembering its own state from a previous time step, but it kind of naturally has an exponential fall-off where unless you bias the training substantially (again open research) it reverts to some blurry mean. and in the average traffic situation there is no train coming right at you.

e: i generally think fsd needs some additional substantial breakthroughs to be safe, no matter the sensors i don't expect current approaches to deal well with representing "there is a bicyclist occluded by that bus" and similar

teslas have never had lidar, they have had a pencil beam radar that was used for the base traffic aware cruise control features, but that supposedly is no longer present on the newer models

yep. mobile eye saw all the features that Tesla was advertising, told Tesla that ME's systems don't support that use (because it was far beyond the ability of the ME system to do reliably), Tesla refused to stop implementing the features, and ME stopped selling to Tesla.

the problem with any of this is that you still have to assume the object exists when you see it, because even "well, we'll see if it keeps showing up for a few frames" is how you insert a car into a firetruck
