Interaction-Dynamics-Aware Perception Zones for Obstacle Detection Safety Evaluation

Description

To enable safe autonomous vehicle (AV) operations, it is critical that an AV's obstacle detection module can reliably detect obstacles that pose a safety threat (i.e., are safety-critical). It is therefore desirable that the evaluation metric for the perception system captures the safety-criticality of objects. Unfortunately, existing perception evaluation metrics tend to make strong assumptions about the objects and ignore the dynamic interactions between agents, and thus do not accurately capt
