Résumé : Despite their popularity, occupancy grids cannot be directly applied to problems where the identity of the objects populating an environment needs to be taken into account (eg object tracking, scene interpretation, etc), in this cases it is necessary to postprocess the grid in order to extract object information. This paper approaches the problem by proposing a novel algorithm inspired on image segmentation techniques. The proposed approach works without prior knowledge about the number of objects to be detected and, at the same time, is very fast. This is possible thanks to the use of a novel Self Organizing Network (SON) coupled with a dynamic threshold. Our experimental results on both real and simulated data show that our approach is robust and able to operate at normal camera framerate.
