I think you're confusing things. Deep Learning is a method of machine learning. LiDAR is a tool that collects depth data. Using Deep Learning on flat image data to try and detect depth is unreliable, hence SDCs use LiDAR to detect depth. They also use image data from the visible spectrum and beyond to read road signs. etc.
- amelius 9y agoOk, but what if the deep learning software of the SDC confuses a "no entry" sign with a 100mph sign? Or is DL classification at 100% accuracy?
- fredley 9y agoI don't think 100mph signs exist, for a start. But the speed limits for sections of road are already known anywhere that a SDC is going to be used. It's an offline database, no sign-reading on the fly required.
