    Abstract: A system for determining an optimal behavior for a vehicle includes at least one vehicle sensor and a controller in electrical communication with the at least one vehicle sensor. The controller is programmed to determine an ingress stop bar location and an egress stop bar location of a traffic-signal-controlled intersection in a path of the vehicle using the at least one vehicle sensor. The controller is further programmed to determine a current signal phase of the traffic signal using the at least one vehicle sensor. The controller is further programmed to determine a location of a first remote vehicle using the at least one vehicle sensor. The controller is further programmed to determine the optimal behavior for the vehicle based at least in part on the ingress stop bar location, the egress stop bar location, the current signal phase, and the location of the first remote vehicle.

    Abstract: A method and system of map data reconciliation in connected vehicles. The method includes processing information to detect a same object; determining an identification of the same object; determining a confidence level of the identification of the same object; determining a probability mass function (PMF) of the identification of the same object using Dempster-Shafer Theory; determining a most probably identification of the same object based on the PMF; and communicating the most probably identification of the same object to a vehicle to implement a vehicle function. The system includes a conflict resolution module configured to receive confidence levels from multiple vehicles detecting the same object and to determine a reconciled identification of the same object using an algorithm based on Dempster-Shafer Theory, and a weight calculation module configured to apply a weight function based on a scene context weight function and on a historical score of the vehicles.

    Abstract: A method of correcting a GPS vehicle trajectory of a vehicle on a roadway for a high-definition map is provided. The method comprises receiving first bitmap data from a first sensor of a first vehicle to create a plurality of first multi-layer bitmaps for the first vehicle using the first bitmap data and receiving second bitmap data from a plurality of second sensors of a plurality of second vehicles to create a plurality of second multi-layer bitmaps. The method further comprises creating first probability density bitmaps and an overall probability density bitmap with a probability density estimation, and matching an image template from each of the first probability density bitmaps with the overall probability density bitmap to define match results. The method further comprises combining the match results to define combined utility values and determining the maximal utility value with the combined utility values.

    Abstract: A method includes obtaining information about a lead vehicle. The lead vehicle is traveling directly ahead of the host vehicle and the information includes velocity of the lead vehicle and a gap g between the host vehicle and the lead vehicle. Based on detecting a change in the velocity of the lead vehicle in the information, a corresponding desired acceleration is computed for the host vehicle using perceived acceleration of the lead vehicle to maintain the gap g within a specified range of gap values. The perceived acceleration of the lead vehicle is based on the change in the velocity indicated by the information. Based on a check of parameters involved in the computing the corresponding desired acceleration, a modified desired acceleration is computed for the host vehicle using a lag for the lead vehicle that results in an intended acceleration of the lead vehicle differing from the perceived acceleration.

    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for controlling a lateral position of a vehicle through an intersection. The method includes receiving, by a processor, intersection data transmitted by an infrastructure associated with the intersection, the intersection data including at least a position of a plurality of lanes associated with the intersection. The method includes receiving, by the processor, a position of the vehicle, and determining, by the processor, a current lane of travel of the vehicle and a future lane of travel of the vehicle based on the intersection data and the position of the vehicle. The method includes determining, by the processor, a virtual lane through the intersection, the virtual lane providing a path of travel for the vehicle from the current lane of travel to the future lane of travel. The method includes controlling, by the processor, the vehicle based on the virtual lane.
