摘要: An apparatus for traversing a vehicle transportation network by an autonomous vehicle (AV) includes a human-autonomy teaming manager. The manager includes a first processor configured to initiate a dialogue associated with a predefined dynamic task sequence that is responsive to a condition experienced by the AV while traversing from a starting location to an ending location within the vehicle transportation network. The sequence is one of a plurality of predefined dynamic task sequences that uses multiple agents to resolve the condition. The manager receives, from an interface accessible to a human agent, an input responsive to the dialogue. The input confirms the sequence as a selected predefined dynamic task sequence or selects an other of the plurality of predefined dynamic task sequences as the selected predefined dynamic task sequence. The manager delegates tasks of the selected predefined dynamic task sequence to resolve the condition.

摘要: Autonomous driving simulation using recorded driving data is disclosed. A method of simulating autonomous driving includes receiving recorded driving data from a recorded autonomous vehicle (AV), the recorded driving data includes decision-making data generated using a first decision-making algorithm, sensing data, and movement data including positions of the recorded AV; obtaining simulation data from the recorded driving data by excluding the decision-making data from the recorded driving data; and simulating, by a simulation AV, a second decision-making algorithm using the simulation data. The simulating the second decision-making algorithm includes determining a first position of the simulation AV at a first time and adjusting a playback speed of the simulation data based on a difference between the first position and a second position of the positions of the recorded AV at the first time.

摘要: A vehicle includes an on-board satellite navigation device, a telematics control unit, a non-transitory computer readable medium, an electronic display device, and a processor. The on-board satellite navigation device is in communication with a global positioning system unit to acquire real-time information regarding conditions near the vehicle's vicinity. The telematics control unit is in wireless communications to at least one of a cloud services and a vehicle network to upload and receive crowdsourced information regarding conditions near the vehicle's vicinity. The non-transitory computer readable medium stores predetermined information regarding conditions near the vehicle vicinity. The processor is programmed to control the electronic display device to display notification data regarding the vehicle vicinity based on one or more of the real-time information, the crowdsourced information and the predetermined information.

摘要: Road feel is created in a vehicle that has a steer-by-wire system using image data obtained from one or more cameras on the vehicle and image data obtained from a light detection and ranging (LIDAR) sensor. A generative adversarial network (GAN) machine learning (ML) model is used to determine a road surface based on the image data from the one or more cameras and the image data from the LIDAR sensor. Haptic vibrations are generated based on the determined road surface to create the road feel using one or more motors on various vehicle components.

摘要: A system may detect a sound associated with a vehicle. The sound may be detected using a set of one or more microphones. The system may use a machine learning model to detect at least one of a squeak or a rattle based on the sound. The machine learning model may be trained using a plurality of sounds emitted in relation to one or more vehicles. The system may determine, based on detecting at least one of the squeak or the rattle, a location of the vehicle associated with at least one of the squeak or the rattle. In some implementations, the location may be determined based on detecting different sound levels between a first microphone and a second microphone, or detecting a time difference between the first and the second microphone, or by correlating the sound to a sound signature associated with a part of the vehicle.

摘要: An apparatus for post-processing of a decision-making model of an autonomous vehicle receives a decision-making model including a plurality of states. The model is processed using multivariate data that comprises values for at least three observations of a vehicle operational scenario. A slice of the model decision space is generated by fixing values of all except two observations, and modifying the values of the two observations to obtain multiple alternative solutions for the model. The alternative solutions and the modified values form the slice. Each alternative solution is associated with a respective first value of a first observation and a respective second value of a second observation. The apparatus also generates a solution to a modified decision-making model that is the model modified by, for at least one state and at least one of the two observations, modifying a probabilistic transition matrix, a probabilistic observation matrix, or both.

摘要: A first method includes identifying an occlusion in the vehicle transportation network; identifying, for a first world object that is on a first side of the occlusion, a visibility grid on a second side of the occlusion; and altering a driving behavior of the first vehicle based on the visibility grid. The visibility grid is used in determining whether other world objects exist on the second side of the occlusion. A second includes identifying a first trajectory of a first world object in the vehicle transportation network; identifying a visibility grid of the first world object; identifying, using the visibility grid, a second world object that is invisible to the first world object; and, in response to determining that the first world object is predicted to collide with the second world object, alerting at least one of the first world object or the second world object.
