1. A method, comprising:
receiving an indication that an autonomous vehicle has entered a network coverage zone generated by a base station;
performing an operation to reallocate computing resources between a plurality of different types of memory devices associated with the autonomous vehicle in response to receiving the indication;
capturing data corresponding to an unknown object disposed within a sight line of the autonomous vehicle;
performing, using the reallocated computing resources, an operation involving the data corresponding to the unknown object to classify the unknown object;
receiving information corresponding to the unknown object from the base station; and
performing, using the reallocated computing resources, the operation involving the data corresponding to the unknown object and the received information corresponding to the unknown object to classify the unknown object; and
receiving confidence information regarding at least one pixel of an image stored by the base station as part of receiving the information corresponding to the unknown object from the base station, wherein the image stored by the base station is determined to be similar to the unknown object.
