Abstract

A system and method for multitask processing for autonomous vehicle computation and control includes: receiving training image data from a training image data collection system; performing a training phase to train a plurality of tasks associated with features of the training image data, the training phase including extracting common features from the training image data, causing the plurality of tasks to generate task-specific predictions based on the training image data, determining a bias between the task-specific prediction for each task and corresponding task-specific ground truth data, and adjusting parameters of each of the plurality of tasks to cause the bias to meet a pre-defined confidence level; receiving image data from an image data collection system associated with an autonomous vehicle; and performing an operational phase including extracting common features from the image data, causing the plurality of trained tasks to concurrently generate task-specific predictions based on the image data.
