Abstract

An apparatus for building an artificial-intelligence system is provided. The apparatus accesses images of a real-world scene and generates an image of a simulated object corresponding to a real-world object using a first generative adversarial network (GAN). The apparatus inserts the image of the simulated object into the images of the real-world scene to produce images of the real-world scene including the simulated object. The apparatus applies the images of the real-world scene including the simulated object to a second GAN to remove visual artifacts thereby producing a training set of images of the real-world scene including the simulated object. The apparatus trains an artificial-intelligence algorithm using the training set of images to build the artificial-intelligence system to detect the real-world object in further images of the real-world scene and outputs the artificial-intelligence system for deployment on an autonomous vehicle.
