OPEN SPACE PLANNER PROFILING TOOL FOR AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE
According to various embodiments, systems, methods, and media for evaluating an open space planner in an autonomous vehicle are disclosed. In one embodiment, an exemplary method includes receiving, at a profiling application, a record file recorded by the ADV while driving in an open space using the open space planner, and a configuration file specifying parameters of the ADV; extracting planning messages and prediction messages from the record file, each extracted message being associated with the open space planner. The method further includes generating features from the planning message and the prediction messages in view of the specified parameters of the ADV; and calculating statistical metrics from the features.

ENVIRONMENTALLY AWARE PREDICTION OF HUMAN BEHAVIORS
A behavior prediction system predicts human behaviors based on environment-aware information such as camera movement data and geospatial data. The system receives sensor data of a vehicle reflecting a state of the vehicle at a given time and a given location. The system determines a field of concern in images of a video stream and determines one or more portions of images of the video stream that correspond to the field of concern. The system may apply different levels of processing powers to objects in the images based on whether an object is in the field of concern. The system then generates features of objects and identify VRUs from the objects of the video stream. For the identified VRUs, the system inputs a representation of the VRUs and the features into a machine learning model, and outputs from the machine learning model a behavioral risk assessment of the VRUs.
HYBRID DETERMINISTIC OVERRIDE OF PROBABILISTIC ADVANCED DRIVING ASSISTANCE SYSTEMS (ADAS)
A hybrid deterministic override to cloud based probabilistic advanced driver assistance systems. Under default driving conditions, an ego vehicle is controlled by a probabilistic controller in a cloud. An overall gap between the ego vehicle and a leading vehicle is divided into an emergency collision gap and a driver specified gap. The vehicle sensors monitor the overall gap. When the gap between the ego vehicle and the leading vehicle is less than or equal to the emergency collision gap, a deterministic controller of the ego vehicle overrides the cloud based probabilistic controller to control the braking and acceleration of the ego vehicle.
L3-level auto-emergency light system for ego vehicle harsh brake
In one embodiment, a method, apparatus, and system for automatically switching on an emergency light at an autonomous driving vehicle (ADV) is disclosed. A present speed of an ADV at a first time instant is determined. A present deceleration of the ADV at the first time instant is determined. Whether the present speed satisfies a present speed condition and whether the present deceleration satisfies a present deceleration condition at the first time instant are determined. In response to determining that the present speed satisfies the present speed condition and that the present deceleration satisfies the present deceleration condition, whether a recent deceleration history of the ADV satisfies a recent deceleration history condition and whether an expected deceleration of the ADV satisfies an expected deceleration condition are determined. If either condition is satisfied, an emergency light of the ADV is automatically switched on.
Method for adjusting fully automatic vehicle guidance functions in a predefined navigation environment and motor vehicle
The invention relates to a method for adjusting fully automatic vehicle guidance functions, which are realized by means of a vehicle system of a motor vehicle, during the operation of the motor vehicles in a predefined navigation environment. A stationary infrastructure device that communicates with the motor vehicles is associated with the navigation environment. Function limits of each vehicle guidance function are defined by means of limit operation parameters of the vehicle guidance function. Current traffic situation information describing dynamic objects in the navigation environment is determined by the infrastructure device by means of environment sensors of the navigation environment. The current traffic situation information is used, together with a digital map describing stationary objects and properties of the navigation environment, to determine at least one piece of risk information for each motor vehicle.
Systems and methods for hybrid prediction framework with inductive bias
Systems and methods are provided for implementing hybrid prediction. Hybrid prediction integrates two deep learning based trajectory prediction approaches: grid-based approaches and graph-based approaches. Hybrid prediction techniques can achieve enhanced performance by combining the grid and graph approaches in a manner that incorporates appropriate inductive biases for different elements of a high-dimensional space. A hybrid prediction framework processor can generate trajectory predictions relating to movement of agents in a surrounding environment based on a prediction model generating using hybrid prediction. Trajectory predictions output from the hybrid prediction framework processor can be used to control an autonomous vehicle. For example, the autonomous vehicle can perform safety-aware and autonomous operations to avoid oncoming objects, based on the trajectory predictions.
