Abstract: A driving environment is perceived based on sensor data obtained from a plurality of sensors mounted on an ADV. A first set of features is extracted from the sensor data representing the driving environment, where the first set of features include one or more obstacles moving relative to the ADV. A precaution notification is generated by applying a precautionary slowdown predictive model to the first set of features and a second set of features determined based on internal states of the ADV. In response to the precaution notification, a speed planning is performed to lower a speed limit of the ADV to a predetermined percentage of the speed limit. The ADV is controlled to drive autonomously according to the lowered speed limit to perform a precautionary slowdown.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for selecting a pull-over location using machine learning. One of the methods includes obtaining data specifying a target pull-over location for an autonomous vehicle travelling on a roadway. A plurality of candidate pull-over locations in a vicinity of the target pull-over location are identified. For each candidate pull-over location, an input that includes features of the candidate pull-over location is processed using a machine learning model to generate a respective likelihood score representing a predicted likelihood that the candidate pull-over location is an optimal location. The features of the candidate pull-over location include one or more features that compare the candidate pull-over location to the target pull-over location. Using the respective likelihood scores, one of the candidate pull-over locations is selected as an actual pull-over location for the autonomous vehicle.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for navigating a host vehicle. A processing device may be programmed to receive an image representative of an environment of the host vehicle; determine a planned navigational action for the host vehicle; analyze the image to identify a target vehicle travelling toward the host vehicle; determine a next-state distance between the host vehicle and the target vehicle that would result if the planned navigational action was taken; determine a stopping distance for the host vehicle based on a braking rate, a maximum acceleration capability, and a current speed of the host vehicle; determine a stopping distance for the target vehicle based on a braking rate, a maximum acceleration capability, and a current speed of the target vehicle; and implement the planned navigational action if the determined next-state distance is greater than a sum of the stopping distances for the host vehicle and the target vehicle.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for stopping an autonomous vehicle at a stopping location defined by a protrusion or a recess formed with respect to a ground surface on which the vehicle is travelling is provided. The method includes detecting that at least a portion of the vehicle is located above the protrusion or recess, in response to said detection, initiating a stop of the vehicle. Detecting that at least a portion of the vehicle is located above the protrusion or recess may include detecting an increase in engine torque or power, and/or detecting a difference in vehicle-to-ground distance.

Abstract: A method includes: accessing a depth map, generated by a depth sensor arranged on a vehicle, including a set of pixels representing relative positions and radial velocities of surfaces relative to the depth sensor; correlating a cluster of pixels exhibiting congruent radial velocities with an object in the field of view of the depth sensor; aggregating the cluster of pixels into a three-dimensional object representation of the object; classifying the object into an object class based on congruence between the three-dimensional object representation and a geometry of the object class; characterizing motion of the object based on positions and radial velocities of surfaces represented by the cluster of pixels; and generating a motion command based on the motion of the object and a set of motion characteristics of the object class.

Abstract: An automatic driving system includes a control device that controls automatic driving of a vehicle, and a storage device that contains external environment information indicating an external environment of the vehicle. A driving transition zone is a zone in which a driver of the vehicle takes over at least a part of driving of the vehicle, from the control device. A termination target velocity is a target velocity of the vehicle at an end point of the driving transition zone. The control device variably sets the termination target velocity, depending on the external environment at the end point or the external environment surrounding the end point. Then, the control device controls the velocity of the vehicle in the driving transition zone, such that the velocity of the vehicle at the end point is the termination target velocity.

Abstract: A vehicle control device has a processor that is configured to determine whether or not a non-controllable point where automatic control of vehicle travel is not allowed exists in a predetermined range from a current location of a vehicle on a path ahead of the vehicle, when it has been determined that there is a problem with a driver, and to set a vehicle stop location where the vehicle can stop at a location before the non-controllable point, when it has been determined that the non-controllable point exists.
