IntentNet: Learning to Predict Intention from Raw Sensor Data
S. Casas, W. Luo, R. Urtasun
In order to plan a safe maneuver, self-driving vehicles need to understand the intent of other traffic participants. We define intent as a combination of discrete high level behaviors as well as continuous trajectories describing future motion. In this paper we develop a one-stage detector and forecaster that exploits both 3D point clouds produced by a LiDAR sensor as well as dynamic maps of the environment. [...] [PDF]

Efficient Convolutions for Real-Time Semantic Segmentation of 3D Point Clouds
C. Zhang, W. Luo, R. Urtasun
We propose an approach for semi-automatic annotation of object instances. While most current methods treat object segmentation as a pixel-labeling problem, we here cast it as a polygon prediction task, mimicking how most current datasets have been annotated. [...] [PDF]

Fast and Furious: Real Time End-to-End 3D Detection, Tracking and Motion Forecasting with a...
W. Luo, B. Yang, R. Urtasun
In this paper we propose a novel deep neural network that is able to jointly reason about 3D detection, tracking and motion forecasting given data captured by a 3D sensor. By jointly reasoning about these tasks, our holistic approach is more robust to occlusion as well as sparse data at range. [...] [PDF]

Despite the substantial progress in recent years, the image captioning techniques are still far from being perfect. Sentences produced by existing methods, e.g. those based on RNNs, are often overly rigid and lacking in variability. [...] [PDF]
