Abstract

Systems and methods for identifying objects in an environment of a host vehicle are disclosed. In one implementation, a system includes a processor configured to receive images representative of the environment of the host vehicle; assign first pixel descriptor values to a plurality of pixels associated with a first image and second pixel descriptor values to a plurality of pixels associated with a second image; identify object representations in the first image and the second image based on at the first pixel descriptor values and the second pixel descriptor values, respectively; determine a first object descriptor and a second object descriptor based on the first pixel descriptor values and the second pixel descriptor values, respectively; and based on a comparison of the first object descriptor and the second object descriptor, output an indication that the object representations in the first image and the second image represent a common object.
