Abstract

Some aspects of the subject matter disclosed herein include a system implemented on one or more data processing apparatuses. The system can include an interface configured to obtain, from one or more sensor subsystems, sensor data describing an environment of a vehicle, and to generate, using the sensor data, (i) one or more first neural network inputs representing sensor measurements for a particular object in the environment and (ii) a second neural network input representing sensor measurements for at least a portion of the environment that encompasses the particular object and additional portions of the environment that are not represented by the one or more first neural network inputs; and a convolutional neural network configured to process the second neural network input to generate an output, the output including a plurality of feature vectors that each correspond to a different one a plurality of regions of the environment.
