They asked a lot of behavioral questions. Regarding the technical questions, they asked computer vision (6 DoF pose estimation methods, YOLO, image segmentation), statistics (covariance, p-value, distributions), classic machine learning algorithms (SVM, clustering, linear regression), deep learning, regularization methods. The coding question a typical leetcode question (easy level).
