Abstract:
A method for merging object detection information detected by object detectors, each of which corresponds to each of cameras located nearby, by using V2X-based auto labeling and evaluation, wherein the object detectors detect objects in each of images generated from each of the cameras by image analysis based on deep learning is provided. The method includes steps of: if first to n-th object detection information are respectively acquired from a first to an n-th object detectors in a descending order of degrees of detection reliabilities, a merging device generating (k-1)-th object merging information by merging (k-2)-th objects and k-th objects through matching operations, and re-projecting the (k-1)-th object merging information onto an image, by increasing k from 3 to n. The method can be used for a collaborative driving or an HD map update through V2X-enabled applications, sensor fusion via multiple vehicles, and the like.
