Techniques are discussed herein for controlling autonomous vehicles within a driving environment, including generating and using bounding contours associated with objects detected in the environment. Image data may be captured and analyzed to identify and/or classify objects within the environment. Image-based and/or lidar-based techniques may be used to determine depth data associated with the objects, and a bounding contour may be determined based on the object boundaries and associated depth data. An autonomous vehicle may use the bounding contours of objects within the environment to classify the objects, predict the positions, poses, and trajectories of the objects, and determine trajectories and perform other vehicle control actions while safely navigating the environment.
