Abstract
Techniques for determining labels for potentially small, moving, and non-impeding objects in an environment are disclosed. Unlabeled lidar segments may be evaluated to determine whether segments are associated with objects located in a drivable region and to determine one or more characteristics of such segments. This determination includes comparing segment characteristics to various criteria that may be associated with small, dynamic objects, such as object size, motion, occlusion, and/or solidity. Based on this evaluation and whether the segment is in a drivable region, the system determines whether to label the segment as a small, dynamic, non-impeding object.
