Distance adjustments by curvature and connectedness. By representing the road segment on a grid, the adjustment by curvature and connectedness is transformed into the task of numerosity estimation. For example, a more curvy (greater sagitta) road segment presents more active pixels on the grid (a), and a disconnected object pair requires additional routes to be connected and results in more active pixels on the grid (b).
