1. A method of detecting at least one traffic object outside of a vehicle and controlling the vehicle, the method comprising:
receiving, via at least one processor, perception data from a sensor system included in the vehicle;
determining, via the at least one processor, at least one focused Region Of Interest (ROI) in the perception data;
scaling, via the at least one processor, the perception data of the at least one focused ROI;
processing the scaled perception data of the at least one focused ROI using a neural network (NN)-based traffic object detection algorithm to provide traffic object detection data; and
controlling, via the at least one processor, at least one vehicle feature based, in part, on the traffic object detection data,
wherein determining, via the at least one processor, the at least one focused Region Of Interest (ROI) in the perception data is based on location data for the at least one traffic object, wherein the location data is obtained based on a blend of at least two of:
a fast traffic object detector;
prior traffic object detection distribution information based on prior perception data;
prior distribution information associating map information and perception data;
concurrent LiDAR data when the perception data is image data from a camera device; and
tracking of the at least one traffic object based on prior traffic object detection data.
