Abstract: A system and method to resolve ambiguity in a radar system involve detecting one or more objects with the radar system. The detecting includes obtaining range, azimuth, and an ambiguous range rate of a first object of the one or more objects. A plurality of Kalman filters are generated with state variables that include parameters based on the range, the azimuth, and the ambiguous range rate. Each of the plurality of Kalman filters provides a different estimate for an unambiguous range rate. The method also includes updating the plurality of Kalman filters using additional detections by the radar system, selecting a selected Kalman filter from among the plurality of Kalman filters that exhibits a highest probability mass among a plurality of probability mass corresponding with and derived from the plurality of Kalman filters, and determining the unambiguous range rate of the object using the selected Kalman filter.

Abstract: A method and associated system for monitoring the on-vehicle yaw-rate sensor includes determining a vehicle heading during vehicle operation and determining a first vehicle heading parameter based thereon. A second vehicle heading parameter is determined via the yaw-rate sensor. A yaw-rate sensor bias parameter is determined based upon the first vehicle heading parameter and the second vehicle heading parameter. A first yaw term is determined via the yaw-rate sensor, and a final yaw term is determined based upon the first yaw term and the yaw-rate sensor bias parameter.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for controlling an autonomous vehicle (AV). A scene understanding module of a high-level controller selects a particular combination of sensorimotor primitive modules to be enabled and executed for a particular driving scenario from a plurality of sensorimotor primitive modules. Each one of the particular combination of the sensorimotor primitive modules addresses a sub-task in a sequence of sub-tasks that address a particular driving scenario. A primitive processor module executes the particular combination of the sensorimotor primitive modules such that each generates a vehicle trajectory and speed profile. An arbitration module selects one of the vehicle trajectory and speed profiles having the highest priority ranking for execution, and a vehicle control module processes the selected one of vehicle trajectory and speed profiles to generate control signals used to execute one or more control actions to automatically control the AV.

Abstract: An attention-based imaging system is described, including a camera that can adjust its field of view (FOV) and resolution and a control routine that can determine one or more regions of interest (ROI) within the FOV to prioritize camera resources. The camera includes an image sensor, an internal lens, a steerable mirror, an external lens, and a controller. The external lens is disposed to monitor a viewable region, and the steerable mirror is interposed between the internal lenses and the external lenses. The steerable mirrors are arranged to project the viewable region from the external lens onto the image sensor via the internal lens. The steerable mirror modifies the viewable region that is projected onto the image sensor and controls the image sensor to capture an image. The associated control routine can be deployed either inside the camera or in a separate external processor.

Abstract: A method for image style transfer using a Semantic Preserved Generative Adversarial Network (SPGAN) includes: receiving a source image; inputting the source image into the SPGAN; extracting a source-semantic feature data from the source image; generating, by the first decoder, a first synthetic image including the source semantic content of the source image in a target style of a target image using the source-semantic feature data extracted by the first encoder of the first generator network, wherein the first synthetic image includes first-synthetic feature data; determining a first encoder loss using the source-semantic feature data and the first-synthetic feature data; discriminating the first synthetic image against the target image to determine a GAN loss; determining a total loss as a function of the first encoder loss and the first GAN loss; and training the first generator network and the first discriminator network.

Abstract: An adaptive sensor control system for a vehicle includes a controller and a steerable sensor system. The controller generates a perception of the vehicle's environment, including providing at least one perception datum and an associated uncertainty factor for different areas within the perception of the environment of the vehicle. The controller also determines one or more relevance factor for the different areas within the perception of the environment. Furthermore, the controller generates control commands for steering the sensor system toward a physical space in the environment as a function of the uncertainty factor and one or more relevance factors. Accordingly, the sensor system obtains updated sensor input for the physical space to update the perception datum and the associated uncertainty factor for the physical space.
