    Abstract: A method of lane detection for a non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing one or more programs is disclosed. The one or more programs include instructions, which when executed by a computing device, cause the computing device to perform the following steps comprising: generating a ground truth associated with lane markings expressed in god's view; receiving features from at least one of a hit-map image and a fitted lane marking, wherein the hit-map image includes a classification of pixels that hit a lane marking, and the fitted lane marking includes pixels optimized based on the hit-map image; and training a confidence module based on the features and the ground truth, the confidence module configured to determine on-line whether a fitted lane marking is reasonable, using parameters that express a lane marking in an arc.

    Abstract: A vehicle position and velocity estimation based on camera and LIDAR data are disclosed. A particular embodiment includes: receiving input object data from a subsystem of an autonomous vehicle, the input object data including image data from an image generating device and distance data from a distance measuring device; determining a two-dimensional (2D) position of a proximate object near the autonomous vehicle using the image data received from the image generating device; tracking a three-dimensional (3D) position of the proximate object using the distance data received from the distance measuring device over a plurality of cycles and generating tracking data; determining a 3D position of the proximate object using the 2D position, the distance data received from the distance measuring device, and the tracking data; determining a velocity of the proximate object using the 3D position and the tracking data; and outputting the 3D position and velocity of the proximate object relative to the autonomous vehicle.

    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method, an apparatus and a system for multi-module scheduling, capable of solving at least one of the problems associated with the multi-module scheduling technique in the related art, i.e., inconsistency in data inputted to a computing module, and a significant delay or low throughput in data transmission between computing modules. The method includes: reading, by a master process, a pre-stored configuration file storing a directed computation graph; initializing, by the master process, states of the nodes and connecting edges in a current computing period; determining a node to be called based on the computation direction of the directed computation graph and the states of the nodes, the node to be called comprising a node having all of its input edges in a complete state; transmitting, to the computing module in the slave process corresponding to the node to be called, a call request of Remote Process Call (RPC) to execute the computing module; updating the state of the node and the state of each output edge of the node upon receiving a response to the call request; and proceeding with a next computing period after determining that the states of all the nodes in the directed computation graph have been updated.
