The novel credibility metric, c-flow, is introduced in this paper to address the underspecification of safety-agnostic metrics used in standard object detection evaluations for automated driving (AD). The proposed c-flow relies on a complementary optical flow signal from image sequences and enhances the analysis of safety-critical misdetections without requiring additional labels. A state-of-the-art pedestrian detector is implemented and evaluated on a large AD dataset, demonstrating that c-flow allows developers to identify safety-critical misdetections.

This paper helps make sure that automated driving systems can correctly detect pedestrians in different situations. It’s like checking if an AI is good at spotting people crossing the road. The researchers created a new way to measure how well this works by using extra information from video sequences. They tested it on a big dataset and found that it helps identify when the system is making mistakes.
