Abstract:
The present disclosure provides systems and methods for tracking vehicles or other objects that are perceived by an autonomous vehicle. A vehicle filter can employ a motion model that models the location of the tracked vehicle using a vehicle bounding shape and an observation model that generates an observation bounding shape from sensor observations. A dominant vertex or side from each respective bounding shape can be identified and used to update or otherwise correct one or more predicted shape locations associated with the vehicle bounding shape based on a shape location associated with the observation bounding shape.

Claim (Index 27):
The computer-implemented method of  claim 21 , wherein:\n obtaining, by the one or more computing devices, the observation data descriptive of the one or more sensor observations comprises obtaining, by the one or more computing devices, the observation data descriptive of a plurality of observed points; and determining, by the one or more computing devices, the second location of the second portion of the observation bounding shape comprises fitting, by the one or more computing devices, the observation bounding shape around the plurality of observed points such that the fitted observation bounding shape includes all of the plurality of observed points and minimizes a collective distance from the plurality of points to respective closest sides of the observation bounding shape.
