Zusammenfassung:A system for determining blockage of a vehicle camera is configured to apply a partition grid having a plurality of locations to a sequence of images to form a plurality of regions. The system determines at least one spatial feature corresponding to the partition grid and at least one temporal feature corresponding to the partition grid. The system generates a sequence of classifications for each location of the plurality of locations based on the at least one spatial feature, the at least one temporal feature, and reference information. The system applies a smoothing technique to determine a subset of regions that are blocked among the sequence of classifications, and generates an output signal based on the subset of regions. The output may be provided to an output system to wash the camera lens, notify the user or the vehicle of the blockage, or modify image processing.
