Evaluating Sequential Reasoning about Hidden Objects in Traffic

Hidden traffic participants pose a great challenge for autonomous vehicles. Previous methods typically do not use previous obser-vations, leading to over-conservative behavior. In this paper, we present a continuation of our work on reasoning about objects out-side the current sensor view. We aim to demonstrate our recently proposed method on an autonomous platform and evaluate its relia-bility and real-time feasibility when using real sensor data. Showing a significant driving performance increase on a real platform, with-out compromising safety, would be a significant contribution to the field of autonomous driving.
