    Abstract: A road sign interpretation system includes a perceptual cache storing perceptual hash values that each correspond to image data representing a road sign. Each road sign that corresponds to one of the perceptual hash values stored in the perceptual cache is associated with a road sign identifier. The road sign interpretation system includes one or more controllers in electronic communication with the perceptual cache execute instructions to compute a perceptual hash of a detected road sign within a cropped image frame based on a perceptual hash function and identify a near match between the perceptual hash of the detected road sign and a selected perceptual hash value stored in the perceptual cache. In response to identifying the near match, the controllers interpret the detected road sign represented by the perceptual hash based on the road sign identifier associated with the selected perceptual hash value stored in the perceptual cache.

    Abstract: A map updating system for a vehicle includes one or more input devices. The input device generates an input signal associated with data indicative of multiple landmark points relative to multiple road semantic features. The system further includes a computer having one or more processors that receive the input signal. The computer further includes a non-transitory computer readable storage medium for storing instructions. The processor is programmed to build a local map including the road semantic features and the landmark points. The processor is further programmed to determine a radius of road curvature associated with each road semantic feature and compare the radius of road curvature to a maximum radius of curvature threshold. The processor is further programmed to transmit an update signal to a cloud server, in response the processor determining that the radius of road curvature is less than the maximum radius of curvature threshold.

    Abstract: A lane edge fusion system for an autonomous vehicle includes one or more controllers executing instructions to receive perception data and map data of a roadway the autonomous vehicle is traveling along. The one or more controllers derive a plurality of map lane edge points from the map data and a plurality of perception lane edge points from the perception data and select an evaluation point based on the plurality of map lane edge points and the plurality of perception lane edge points. The one or more controllers fit an implicit function for the evaluation point based on an implicit moving least squares approach. The one or more controllers build a fused lane edge by setting a point on the implicit curve as one of a plurality fused lane edge points.

    Abstract: A method generating planning-based attention signals includes receiving driving-scene data. The driving-scene data is indicative of a driving scene around a host vehicle. The driving-scene data includes map data and localization data. The driving scene includes a plurality of actors. The method further includes converting the driving-scene data into a scene-graph. The method further includes inputting the scene-graph into a deep neural network (DNN). Further, the method includes determining an attention score for each of the plurality of actors using the DNN and the scene-graph. The attention score of each of the plurality of actors represents a priority given to each of the plurality of actors in the driving scene. The method further includes commanding the host vehicle to autonomously drive according to a trajectory determined by taking into account the attention score of each of the plurality of actors.

    Abstract: A system and method of gamified learning for a vehicle is provided. The system includes a perception model configured to receive perception data from a camera, execute a perception task to obtain a task result for the object, determine the perception confidence level of the task result is below a predetermined perception confidence threshold, show an image of the object to an on-scene user, request the on-scene user to annotate the object, and reward the on-scene user in response to receiving the annotation from the on-scene user. The system further includes a server configured to aggregate a plurality of annotations from a plurality of users, apply a probabilistic model to determine a ground truth annotation, and input the ground truth annotation and an image to a machine learning model to update the perception model.

    Abstract: A scene creation system for an autonomous vehicle includes one or more controllers executing instructions to receive perception data and map data of a roadway the autonomous vehicle is traveling along, and identify a plurality of lane segments of the roadway that the autonomous vehicle travels along based on the perception data and the map data. The one or more controllers connect the plurality of lane segments together based on a spatial relationship between the plurality of lane segments to create a lane graph. The one or more controllers classify each of the plurality of lane segments of the lane graph to one or more lane attributes and reassemble the plurality of lane segments to create a representation of the roadway. The one or more controllers recreate a scene of an environment surrounding the autonomous vehicle based on the representation of the lanes that are part of the roadway.
