We choose a size of 30 to ensure a fixed-size input, which is typically larger than the number of associated reflections, and set the remaining values to zero. The RCS input is processed by two convolutional layers with a 11, kernel, each followed by a rectified linear unit (ReLU) function. To solve the 4-class classification task, DL methods are applied. The approach accomplishes the detection of the changed and unchanged areas by, IEEE Geoscience and Remote Sensing Letters.

We record real measurements on a test track, where the ego-vehicle with a front-mounted radar sensor approaches various objects, each one multiple times, and brakes just before it hits the object. Unfortunately, DL classifiers are characterized as black-box systems which output severely over-confident predictions, leading downstream decision-making systems to false conclusions with possibly catastrophic consequences. For learning the RCS input, DeepHybrid needs 560 parameters in addition to the already 25k required by the spectrum branch. This is used as Hence, the RCS information alone is not enough to accurately classify the object types. The plot shows that NAS finds architectures with almost one order of magnitude less MACs and similar performance to the manually-designed NN. Radar-reflection-based methods first identify radar reflections using a detector, e.g. 2016 IEEE Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition (CVPR).

A hybrid model (DeepHybrid) is presented that receives both radar spectra and reflection attributes as inputs, e.g. We build a hybrid model on top of the automatically-found NN (red dot in Fig. In conclusion, the RCS input yields an absolute improvement of 5.7% in test performance at a cost of only about 2% more parameters. After that, we attach to the automatically-found CNN a sequence of layers that process reflection-level input information (reflection branch), obtaining thus the hybrid model we propose. for Object Classification, 3DRIMR: 3D Reconstruction and Imaging via mmWave Radar based on Deep Comparing the architectures of the automatically- and manually-found NN (see Fig. 4 (a) and (c)), we can make the following observations. layer. NAS yields an almost one order of magnitude smaller NN than the manually-designed one while preserving the accuracy. Manually finding a high-performing NN architecture that is also resource-efficient w.r.t.an embedded device is tedious, especially for a new type of dataset. Therefore, the observed micro-Doppler effect is limited compared to a longitudinally moving pedestrian, which makes it harder to classify the laterally moving dummies correctly [7]. The approach, named SSD, discretizes the output space of bounding boxes into a set of default boxes over different aspect ratios and scales per feature map location, which makes SSD easy to train and straightforward to integrate into systems that require a detection component.
