Abstract

An occupancy verification including one or more processors, configured to receive occupancy grid data representing a plurality of cells of an occupancy grid and for each cell of the plurality of cells, a probability of whether the cell is occupied; receive object location data, representing one or more locations of one or more objects identified using a model; map the object location data to one or more cells of the plurality of cells based on the one or more locations of the one or more objects; determine comparison grid data, representing the plurality of cells of the occupancy grid and for each cell of the plurality of cells, a probability of whether the cell is occupied based on whether the object location data are mapped to the cell; and compare the occupancy grid data to the comparison grid data using at least one comparing rule.
