From Evaluation to Verification: Towards Task-oriented Relevance Metrics for Pedestrian Detection in Safety-critical Domains

Whenever a visual perception system is employed in safety-critical applications such as automated driving, a thorough, task-oriented experimental evaluation is necessary to guarantee safe system behavior. While most standard evaluation methods in computer vision provide a good comparability on benchmarks, they tend to fall short on assessing the system performance that is actually relevant for the...
