Abstract

A system for an attention-based perception includes a camera device configured to provide an image of an operating environment of a vehicle. The system further includes a computerized device monitoring the image, analyzing sensor data to identify a feature in the image as corresponding to an object in the operating environment and assign a score for the feature based upon an identification, a location, or a behavior of the object. The computerized device is further operable to define candidate regions of interest upon the image, correlate the score for the feature to the candidate regions of interest to accrue a total region score, select some of the candidate regions for analysis based upon the total region scores, and analyze the portion of the candidate regions to generate a path of travel output. The system further includes a device controlling the vehicle based upon the output.
