Deep learning–based classifiers are widely used for perception in autonomous Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS’s). However, such classifiers rarely offer guarantees of perfect accuracy while being optimized for efficiency. To support safety-critical perception, ensembles of multiple different classifiers working in concert are typically used. Since CPS’s interact with the physical world continuously, it is not unreasonable to expect dependencies among successive inputs in a stream of sensor data. Prior work introduced a classification technique that leverages these inter-input dependencies to reduce the average time to successful classification using classifier ensembles. In this paper, we propose generalizations to this classification technique, both in the improved generation of classifier cascades and the modeling of temporal dependencies. We demonstrate, through theoretical analysis and numerical evaluation, that our approach achieves further reductions in average classification latency compared to the prior methods.
