The approach can be extended to more sophisticated association algorithms, e.g.DBSCAN [3], or methods that take into account the measurement uncertainties in the different dimensions, e.g.the Mahalanobis or the association log-likelihood distance [20]. In order to associate reflections to objects, the angles (directions of arrival (DOA)) of the reflections have to be determined. Since a single-frame classifier is considered, the spectrum of each radar frame is a potential input to the NN, i.e.a data sample. The approach, named SSD, discretizes the output space of bounding boxes into a set of default boxes over different aspect ratios and scales per feature map location, which makes SSD easy to train and straightforward to integrate into systems that require a detection component.
