Systems and methods are directed to object detection at various ranges for autonomous vehicles. In one example, a system includes a camera providing a first field of view; a machine-learned model that has been trained to generate object detection range estimates based at least in part on labeled training data representing image data having a second field of view different from the first field of view; and a computing system including one or more processors; and memory including instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations. The operations include obtaining image data from the camera. inputting the image data from the camera to the machine-learned model; obtaining a first range estimate as an output of the machine-learned model, wherein the first range estimate represents estimates for the second field of view; generating transformed range estimate by applying a range estimate transform to the first range estimate output from the machine-learned model; and providing the transformed range estimate for use in controlling operation of an autonomous vehicle.
