摘要: A system and method including receiving a digital representation of a road that includes one or more lane representations; defining a factor graph including variable nodes and constraint nodes that encode lane boundary constraints for the lane map; translating the factor graph into a nonlinear optimization problem for altitudes of the lane map; generating a solution to the optimization problem; and generating a corrected lane map with an optimized altitude for the road based on the generated solution.

摘要: Provided is a system and method that can control a speed of an autonomous vehicle when approaching a vehicle on a shoulder based on a piecewise linear function. Further, the system and method may determine whether to perform a lane change based on various factors. In one example, the method may include storing a piecewise linear function, detecting a vehicle on a shoulder (VOS) of a road based on sensor data sensed by one or more sensors of an ego vehicle approaching the VOS, determining that the VOS is within a predefined distance of the ego vehicle, and in response to the determination, controlling the ego vehicle to slow down and then speed up based on the piecewise linear function.

摘要: Provided are systems and methods for controlling a vehicle based on a map that designed using a factor graph. Because the map is designed using a factor graph, positions of the road can be modified in real-time while operating the vehicle. In one example, the method may include storing a map which is associated with a factor graph of variable nodes representing a plurality of constraints that define positions of lane lines in a road and factor nodes between the variable nodes on the factor graph which define positioning constraints amongst the variable nodes, receiving an indication from the road using a sensor of a vehicle, updating positions of the variable nodes based on the indication and an estimated location of the vehicle within the map, and issue commands capable of controlling a steering operation of the vehicle based on the updated positions of the factor nodes.

摘要: A system and method including receiving an image of a first lane of a road, the image being captured by a first sensor; defining the first lane as a set of N ordered points; representing the first lane by a combination of N ordered points and a predefined number of types of lane components, C; generating images, each image representing one of the types of lane components; and combining the generated images to generate a topology representation for the first lane.

摘要: Provided are systems and methods for auto calibrating a vehicle using a calibration target that is generated from the vehicle's sensor data. In one example, the method may include receiving sensor data associated with a road captured by one or more sensors of a vehicle, identifying lane line data points within the sensor data, generating a representation which includes positions of a plurality of lane lines of the road based on the identified lane line data points, and adjusting a calibration parameter of a sensor from among the one or more sensors of the vehicle based on the representation of the plurality of lane lines.

摘要: Provided is a system and method that can control a merge of an autonomous vehicle when other vehicles are present on the road. In one example, the method may include iteratively estimating a series of values associated with one or more vehicles in an adjacent lane with respect to an ego vehicle, identifying a trend associated with the one or more vehicles from the iteratively estimated series of values, determining merge intentions of the one or more vehicles with respect to the ego vehicle based on the identified trend over time, verifying the merge intentions against a simulated change in the trend, selecting a merge position of the ego vehicle with respect to the one or more vehicles within the lane based on the verified merge intentions, and executing an instruction to cause the ego vehicle to perform a merge operation based on the selected merge position.
