    Abstract: A method and system for tracking attached objects for controlling a vehicle. The method includes receiving, by a processor, sensor data of an environment associated with the vehicle that includes an object. The method includes determining, based on the sensor data, whether the object corresponds to an attached object type, and determining whether the sensor data includes a second vehicle. The method includes determining an attached object region associated with the second vehicle based on a distance between the second vehicle and the vehicle, and determining whether a position of the object is within the attached object region. The method includes determining whether a difference between a velocity of the object and a vehicle velocity of the vehicle is within a velocity threshold based on the distance. The method includes determining that the object is an attached object and controlling the vehicle based on the determining.

    Abstract: One general aspect includes a system to commence host vehicle movement upon being stopped behind a target vehicle, the system includes a memory configured to include one or more executable instructions and a processor configured to execute the executable instructions, where the executable instructions enable the processor to: detect the target vehicle as being stopped along a route; cause the host vehicle to stop at a first distance from the target vehicle; detect a transition of one or more brake lights of the target vehicle from an ON state to an OFF state; and after the one or more brake lights are detected to transition from the ON state to the OFF state, cause the host vehicle to move at a slow speed in the direction of the target vehicle.

    Abstract: A system for a vehicle operating on a road includes a vehicle placement module that references, based on a geographic position of the vehicle, a road mapping database to identify a selected lane of the road where the vehicle is located. A lane assignment module (i) receives information indicating identification of an object in the road and (ii) determines a relative lane of the object with respect to the selected lane. A curvature plotting module determines a curvature line of the selected lane. An object placement module (i) determines a first distance value representing a shortest distance between the object and the curvature line and (ii) determines whether the relative lane of the object is the selected lane based on the first distance value and a lane width value. An alert generation module selectively generates an alert signal in response to the object being in the selected lane.

    Abstract: Methods and systems for providing driving assistance in a vehicle. In one embodiment, a method includes: receiving, by a processor, vehicle data from a sensor system of the vehicle; determining, by a processor, a path of the vehicle based on the steering data; expanding, by the processor, the path of the vehicle to a path area based on probabilistic uncertainty bound prediction; determining, by the processor, a target object based on the path area and object data that identifies objects within the environment of the vehicle; and generating, by the processor, control signals to vehicle actuators to control the vehicle based on the target object.

    Abstract: A full speed range adaptive cruise control system for a host vehicle includes a plurality of sensors that each generate a signal, a memory that includes executable instructions and a processor that executes the executable instructions. The executable instructions enable the processor to detect a target vehicle as being stopped along a route based upon the signals from the plurality of sensors, cause the host vehicle to stop at a distance from the target vehicle, detect the target vehicle moving along the route after the host vehicle has stopped based upon the signals from the plurality of sensors, determine whether a first predetermined period of time has elapsed since the host vehicle has stopped, determine whether a first predetermined condition is satisfied if the first predetermined period of time has elapsed, and cause the host vehicle to move if the system determines that the first predetermined condition is satisfied.
