Real-world applications with multiple sensors observing an event are expected to make continuously-available predictions, even in cases where information may be intermittently missing. We explore methods in ensemble learning and sensor fusion to make use of redundancy and information shared between four camera views, applied to the task of hand activity classification for autonomous driving. In particular, we show that a late-fusion approach between parallel convolutional neural networks can outperform even the best-placed single camera model. To enable this approach, we propose a scheme for handling missing information, and then provide comparative analysis of this late-fusion approach to additional methods such as weighted majority voting and model combination schemes.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
