Abstract: The present application generally relates to a method and apparatus for generating an action policy for controlling an autonomous vehicle. In particular, the method and apparatus are operative for determining a following distance between a host vehicle and a lead vehicle and a lead vehicle speed, generating a lane change request in response to the following distance, a host vehicle speed and the lead vehicle speed, determining an available lane in response to an image and the lane change request, generating a lane change command in response to the available lane, generating a control signal in response to the lane change request and a map data and controlling the vehicle to execute a lane change action in response to the control signal.

Abstract: The present application generally relates communications and hazard avoidance within a monitored driving environment. More specifically, the application teaches a system for improved target object detection in a vehicle equipped with a laser detection and ranging LIDAR system by determining a plurality of ranges in response to a plurality of light pulse reflections and determining a false target indication by exploiting the expected continuity of surfaces in the environment.
