Background
In recent years, driving assistance functions such as an adaptive cruise control system (ACC) and an automatic emergency braking system (AEB) have rapidly penetrated the passenger vehicle market, and the ACC and AEB functions on a high-speed structured road have become mature.
Chinese patent application CN112665590a provides a method and apparatus for determining a trajectory of a vehicle, an electronic device, and a computer storage medium. The track determination method of the vehicle comprises the following steps: determining a target planning path based on the high-precision map and the driving destination; determining a vehicle driving mode of the target vehicle based on the target planned path and the current position of the target vehicle; acquiring a target historical traffic flow track corresponding to a vehicle running mode; matching a track with the highest correlation degree from the target historical traffic flow track as a first track of the target vehicle based on the curvature value, the distance and the azimuth; obtaining a second track of the target vehicle by using a vehicle dynamics model according to the motion state information of the target vehicle; and fusing the first track and the second track based on the fusion function to obtain the target track of the target vehicle.
In the process of determining the vehicle track in the patent, firstly, high-precision map input is needed, the front track kernel is weighted and fused with the vehicle motion track, the track determining method does not fully utilize the front traffic information, and only the vehicle motion track is simply fused, so that the track estimation accuracy is not enough, and the driving safety is even affected in serious cases.
Particularly, in the scenes of unstructured roads, congested road conditions and the like, the detection result of the camera on the lane line is greatly reduced, and the vehicle is difficult to select the target vehicles of ACC and AEB according to the lane line.

Detailed Description
Embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. While certain embodiments of the present disclosure are shown in the drawings, it is to be understood that the present disclosure may be embodied in various forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein, but rather are provided for a more thorough and complete understanding of the present disclosure. It should be understood that the drawings and embodiments of the disclosure are for illustration purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of the disclosure.
In describing embodiments of the present disclosure, the terms "include" and "comprise," and similar language, are to be construed as open-ended, i.e., "including but not limited to. The term "based on" should be understood as "based at least in part on". The term "one embodiment" or "the embodiment" should be understood as "at least one embodiment". The terms "first," "second," and the like may refer to different or the same objects. Other explicit and implicit definitions are also possible below.
As described above, the current technology does not fully utilize the forward traffic information, and only performs simple fusion on the motion trajectory of the vehicle, thereby resulting in insufficient accuracy of the trajectory estimation. In addition, the calculation of the driving track of the self-vehicle at present mostly depends on the detection of the lane line by the camera, and the calculation effect is poor under the condition of the unstructured road or the road condition with the blocked detection of other lane lines.
In view of the above problems, the present disclosure provides a scheme for determining a vehicle driving track, which can make full use of front vehicle information, fit a plurality of front vehicle tracks, then make a radius assumption for a rear vehicle based on driving parameters of the vehicle, and calculate distances from particle swarms composed of track points of the front vehicle tracks to track curves corresponding to the radius assumptions, thereby selecting an optimal radius assumption, and determining a target driving path based on the distances from the track points to the optimal radius assumption. The mode can obviously reduce the dependence on the camera, and can be widely applied to scenes such as unstructured roads, congested road conditions and the like. Moreover, the method can effectively eliminate noise and increase the robustness of the system. The scheme can obtain the optimal estimation of the target running track.
Exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure will be described below in conjunction with fig. 1 to 5.
Fig. 1 illustrates a schematic diagram of an example environment 100 in which various embodiments of the present disclosure can be implemented.
As shown in fig. 1, in the example of environment 100, vehicle 110 (i.e., "own vehicle") is traveling on a road, with one or more other vehicles present in its surroundings. The vehicle 110 is, for example, in a congested environment, and the sensing unit (e.g., a camera) cannot accurately detect the lane line information. Alternatively, the road on which the vehicle 110 travels belongs to an unstructured road, and the surrounding lane lines are not clear enough. The vehicle 110 needs to accurately detect the track of the vehicle ahead, and then plan an optimal target driving track in combination with the track of the vehicle ahead, so as to ensure driving comfort and safety.
It should be understood that the environment 100 shown in FIG. 1 is only one example environment in which a vehicle 110 may be traveling. In addition to traveling on outdoor roads, the vehicle 110 is likely to be traveling in various environments such as tunnels, outdoor parking lots, building interiors (e.g., indoor parking lots), communities, parks, and so forth.
In the example of FIG. 1, vehicle 110 may be any type of vehicle that may carry people and/or things and that is moved by a powered system such as an engine, including but not limited to a car, truck, bus, electric vehicle, motorcycle, recreational vehicle, train, and the like. In some embodiments, the vehicle 110 in the environment 100 may be a vehicle with certain autonomous driving capabilities, such a vehicle also being referred to as an unmanned vehicle or autonomous vehicle. In some embodiments, vehicle 110 may also be a vehicle with semi-autonomous driving capabilities.
As shown in fig. 1, vehicle 110 may also include a computing device 120. In some embodiments, computing device 120 may be communicatively coupled to vehicle 110. Although shown as a separate entity, computing device 120 may be embedded in vehicle 110. Computing device 120 may also be an entity external to vehicle 110 and may communicate with vehicle 110 via a wireless network. Computing device 120 may be any device with computing capabilities.
As shown in fig. 1, as non-limiting examples, computing device 120 may be any type of fixed, mobile, or portable computing device, including but not limited to a desktop computer, laptop computer, notebook computer, netbook computer, tablet computer, multimedia computer, mobile phone, or the like; all or a portion of the components of computing device 120 may be distributed in the cloud. Computing device 120 contains at least a processor, memory, and other components typically found in a general purpose computer to implement computing, storage, communication, control, and the like functions.
In some embodiments, the computing device 120 may include a system for autonomous vehicle speed planning. The system architecture may include, for example, modules for system input, information processing, system execution, and the like. The system input module may include at least a sensing unit and a body unit. The sensing unit may include a radar, a camera, etc. for acquiring the preceding vehicle motion information. The body unit can be used for acquiring the kinematic parameters of the self-vehicle. The information processing module can be used for processing the motion information of the front vehicle, obtaining the position lighting information of the front vehicle in the self-vehicle coordinate system, and calculating the motion state of the self-vehicle. The information processing module can also comprise an ADAS domain controller which is used for realizing a vehicle auxiliary driving algorithm and outputting a vehicle control command. The system execution module is used for executing the request instruction. The parameter transmission among the units includes but is not limited to the transmission of CAN bus and Ethernet. Various embodiments for determining a vehicle travel trajectory according to the present disclosure may be incorporated in an ADAS domain controller, for example.
With continued reference to fig. 1, when the vehicle 100 travels in a complex environment as mentioned above and the sensing unit cannot accurately provide lane line information and surrounding vehicle information, the vehicle 100 needs to plan a set of optimal travel paths by relying on the trajectories of a plurality of preceding vehicles to ensure driving safety and driving comfort in a special scene.
Fig. 2 shows a schematic flow diagram of a method 200 for determining a vehicle driving trajectory, according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. The method 200 may be implemented, for example, by the computing device 120 shown in FIG. 1.
At block 201, a set of historical travel trajectories corresponding to each of a plurality of leading vehicles is determined, wherein the set of historical travel trajectories includes a plurality of historical trajectory points. The historical trajectory of the preceding vehicle may be determined by the sensing unit of the vehicle 110. For example, there are a target vehicle a in front, there are X history points of a, and fitting the X history points is a track that a has traveled in the past, that is, a history travel track. When there are a plurality of vehicles ahead, the historical travel locus equal to the number of vehicles ahead is obtained.
In some embodiments, a least squares fit may be used to fit a plurality of historical trajectory points to obtain a set of historical travel trajectories. In one embodiment, specifically, after obtaining the historical track points of each vehicle from the sensing unit, the curve equation of the historical track of the front vehicle to be fitted is assumed to be a quadratic equation:
f(x)=C 0 +C 1 *x+C 2 *x 2
the least squares method aims to solve:
Figure BDA0004077679220000081
wherein x is the longitudinal coordinate of the track point and y is the transverse coordinate of the track point.
Where y is the true value and f (x) is the value calculated from the fitted curve, the minimum value is required, and it is necessary to match C to the above formula 0 、C 1 、C 2 Calculating a partial derivative:
Figure BDA0004077679220000082
and n is the number of points on the curve, and can be determined according to effects or experience, and the number of n can be used for accurately calculating the historical track equation of the front vehicle. Thus, the conversion is in matrix form:
Figure BDA0004077679220000091
/>
thereby obtaining C of each curve of the front vehicle track with smaller performance and less labor consumption 0 、C 1 、C 2
It should be noted that the calculation method and the embodiment of the least square method are only exemplary, and any other suitable method may be adopted to fit each trajectory of the leading vehicle, which is not limited by the present disclosure.
At block 203, a set of radius hypotheses associated with a target travel trajectory of vehicle 110 is determined based on one or more travel parameters associated with the travel trajectory of vehicle 110, each radius hypothesis in the set of radius hypotheses corresponding to a respective radius hypothesis circular trajectory.
In some embodiments, the above and subsequent operations may be implemented using a particle swarm algorithm as shown in FIG. 3, to combine all the front vehicle trajectories into one optimal trajectory that the vehicle 110 may travel. The algorithm utilizes a fitness function to calculate the average value of the difference between the distances from two adjacent track points on all effective tracks to the current circle radius. The smaller the value, the closer the particle swarm algorithm is to converging. The working principle of the algorithm will be described below with reference to fig. 3.
Fig. 3 illustrates a schematic flow diagram 300 of a particle swarm algorithm in accordance with some embodiments of the present disclosure. The flow diagram 300 may be used to implement one or more of blocks 203, 205, and 207.
At block 301, the particles are initialized so that the particles are in a state that enables further calculations. At block 303, the fitness of each particle is then calculated. The fitness refers to a value of a fitness function in an algorithm, on the basis of observing the activity behaviors of animal clusters, the algorithm utilizes sharing of information by individuals in the clusters to enable the motion of the whole clusters to generate a process of evolution from disorder to order in a problem solving space, and an optimal solution is searched through iteration, so that the quality of the solution is evaluated through the fitness.
Further, at block 305, the global optimum is updated based on the fitness calculated at block 303, and the speed of particle update and the values of the particles are further updated at block 307. When the maximum iteration speed or global optimum is reached, then the final output is obtained at block 309. If the maximum iteration speed or global optimum is not reached, return to block 301 to re-iterate the process until an optimum solution is found.
Block 203 is returned. The one or more driving parameters associated with the vehicle driving trajectory may be, for example, a lateral acceleration acceptable to vehicle 110 (e.g., a maximum lateral acceleration), a kinematic trajectory of the vehicle, a target driving trajectory calculated from a previous cycle, and any other suitable parameters. In this way, the first radius hypothesis, the second radius hypothesis, and the third radius hypothesis may be determined based on the lateral acceleration of the vehicle 110, the kinematic trajectory, and the target travel trajectory calculated in the previous cycle, respectively. The initial values may be set based on knowledge and experience, provided that the purpose of the radius is to set the initial values prior to iteration. It should be appreciated that the more accurate the initial value is set, the more accurate the final output result.
In one embodiment, the first radius assumption may be based on a maximum lateral acceleration 3m/s 2 acceptable to the host vehicle. I.e., radiuHyp [0] = | Vego | ^2/3. Wherein Vego is the speed of the bicycle. In other embodiments, the acceptable speed of the vehicle may be set empirically. The lateral direction may be a direction perpendicular to the path traveled by the vehicle 110, i.e., a direction normal to the trajectory traveled by the vehicle 110.
In one embodiment, the second radius assumption may be based on the kinematic trajectory of the vehicle 110. Namely: radiausHyp [1] =1.0/VDY _ c0. Wherein VDY _ c0 is the track curvature calculated by the kinematic track module of the vehicle 110.
In one embodiment, the third radius assumes RadiUSHyp [2] may be the final own vehicle trajectory calculated for the previous cycle.
Initializing local optimality of each hypothesis and the update speed of the particle swarm based on the 3 radius hypotheses: localBestFit [ i ] = InitFit;
LocalBestRadius[i]=RadiusHyp[i];
VelHyp[i]=10;
it should be understood that since there are three assumed initial radii, there are three fitness functions, localBestFit [1] LocalBestFit [2] LocalBestFit [3], where InitFit is the last three fitness function initial values, which can be given a maximum value empirically, and VelHyp [ i ] is the update speed for each local optimum radius, say by considering the value of the local radius for each cycle to shift by 10m.
It should be noted that the above radius assumptions and values are illustrative, and any suitable radius assumptions and values may be used, which are not limited in this disclosure.
At block 205, an optimal radius hypothesis is selected among a set of radius hypotheses based on differences in distances from neighboring points of the plurality of historical track points to the corresponding radius hypothesis circular tracks.
In some embodiments, the starting global optimum radius may be determined based on a curvature of a travel trajectory of the vehicle in a previous cycle. Then, based on the determined starting global optimal radius, a distance from each point of the plurality of historical track points to a circular track corresponding to the starting global optimal radius is calculated. Further, a difference absolute value of distances from adjacent points in the plurality of historical track points to a circumferential track corresponding to the initial global optimal radius is obtained. Finally, an average of the absolute values of the differences is calculated for use in determining whether the target travel path corresponds to a respective one of a set of radius hypotheses.
In one embodiment, the starting global optimum radius may be determined based on the last cycle of the vehicle trajectory curvature TraceCurve. Namely: globalBestRadius =1/TraceCurve. Next, the global optimum radius GlobalBestRadius determined according to the above operations may be determined as follows:
s1: calculating the distance from the track point of the front vehicle to the global optimal radius circular track;
s2: calculating the absolute value of the difference value between the distance from two adjacent track points on the track of the front vehicle to the distance from the track of the circumference; and
s3: and calculating the average value Curve2TraceDevAverage of the circular track distance difference value, wherein the value is used for judging the quality of the fusion Curve.
Therefore, the starting global optimal radius fitness value GlobalBestFit is equal to Curve2 TraceDevAvage.
In some embodiments, an average of absolute values of differences of all of the plurality of historical track points to the radius hypothesis circular tracks corresponding to each radius hypothesis in the set of radius hypotheses may be sequentially calculated, and the radius hypothesis corresponding to the smallest value in the average may be determined as the optimal radius hypothesis.
The global optimal radius GlobalBestRadius is the final output of the previous period, and the optimal radius hypothesis with the minimum fitness function can be found from the three assumed radii output in the previous period and used as the initial optimal radius hypothesis of the period. In one implementation, the average of the distance differences from all the trace points to each assumed radius circle is computed sequentially, and the above process is repeated, replacing only the GlobalBestRadius with the corresponding radius hyp [ i ]. The corresponding local optimum is then:
LocalBestFit[i];
if(LocalBestFit[i]<GlobalBestFit)
{
GlobalBestFit=LocalBestFit[i];
GlobalBestRadius=RadiusHyp[i];
}
it should be noted that the above manner of finding the optimal radius assumption is only exemplary, and any other appropriate manner may be adopted to find the optimal radius assumption, which is not limited by the present disclosure.
At block 207, at least one of a locally optimal radius and a globally optimal radius of the target travel trajectory is determined based on the selected optimal radius hypothesis.
In some embodiments, an average of differences from all of the plurality of historical track points to a circular track corresponding to the optimal radius hypothesis may be calculated, and then at least one of a local optimal radius and a global optimal radius of the target travel track may be determined based on the average of differences, and the target travel track may be obtained based on the at least one of the local optimal radius and the global optimal radius.
In one embodiment, the local optimal radius and the global optimal radius of the target travel trajectory may be determined by performing an iterative loop:
RadiusHyp[i]=RadiusHyp[i]+VelHyp[i];
and calculating the average value of the distance difference between all track points and the assumed circular track of the radius to obtain Curve2TraceDevAverage.
The local optimum radius can then be found by:
if Curve2 TraceDevAvage is smaller than LocalBestFit [ i ] of the previous cycle, indicating that the error of RadiUsHyp [ i ] is smaller at this time, replacing LocalBestRadus [ i ] with the current RadiUsHyp [ i ]:
if(LocalBestFit[i]>Curve2TraceDevAverage)
{
LocalBestFit[i]=Curve2TraceDevAverage;
LocalBestRadius[i]=RadiusHyp[i];
}
further, the global optimum may be found by:
if(GlobalBestFit[i]>Curve2TraceDevAverage)
{
GlobalBestFit[i]=Curve2TraceDevAverage;
GlobalBestRadius=RadiusHyp[i];
}
the iteration times of the algorithm can be set according to different requirements, and the more the iteration times are, the closer the final result is to the true value. After the algorithm reaches the iteration times, the radius GlobalBestradius of the target driving track can be obtained.
It should be noted that the above embodiments may be implemented by the calculation method shown in fig. 3, and may also be implemented by other suitable calculation methods, which is not limited by the present disclosure.
Therefore, according to the embodiments of the present disclosure, historical track information of a vehicle ahead can be fully utilized, the optimal estimation of the target driving track of the vehicle can be obtained by fitting a single track of the vehicle ahead and utilizing a preset algorithm according to the track information of the vehicle ahead, the robustness and the calculation efficiency of the system can be significantly improved, and the driving safety of the vehicle under a complex environment can be ensured.
