其中,路况信息包括自动驾驶车辆所处道路的中心线的位置、自动驾驶车辆所处道路的边界以及自动驾驶车辆所处道路上的障碍物信息,等等,在更多可能的实现方式中,路况信息包括其他内容,本申请对此不加以限定。
上述仅为关于本申请的应用场景的相关介绍,接下来结合本说明书实施例,对本申请所提供的行驶路径确定方法进行详细说明。
如图1所示,图1是本说明书根据一示例性实施例示出的一种方法的流程图,包括以下步骤:在步骤101中,基于自动驾驶车辆所处的位置以及自动驾驶车辆所处道路的中心线的位置,构建坐标系,坐标系的纵向方向指示道路的中心线方向,坐标系的横向方向指示与道路的中心线垂直的方向。
在自动驾驶领域,通常采用笛卡尔坐标系(也即是经纬度坐标系),来表示自动驾驶车辆所处道路的路况信息,但笛卡尔坐标系无法充分体现道路的结构,从而使得笛卡尔坐标系对路况信息的表示能力较差。本申请采用坐标系转换的方式,将笛卡尔坐标系转换为能够更加充分地体现道路的结构的坐标系,从而通过所转换得到的坐标系,来表示自动驾驶车辆所处道路的路况信息。
在一种可能的实现方式中,以自动驾驶车辆所处的位置作为坐标系的坐标原点,以道路的中心线的切线方向作为坐标系的纵向方向,以道路的中心线的法线方向作为坐标系的横向方向,从而完成坐标系的构建,得到能够更加充分地体现道路的结构的Frenet坐标系(或称S-L坐标系)。
在笛卡尔坐标系中,采用坐标(x,y)表示坐标系中的点的位置,而在Frenet坐标系中,采用(s,l)表示坐标系中的点的位置,因而在坐标系构建完成后,基于笛卡尔坐标系中各个点的位置,确定Frenet坐标系中各个点的位置。
在一种可能的实现方式中,对于笛卡尔坐标系中的待进行坐标转换的点(xi,yi),在确定道路中心线(也即是参考线)上距离(xi,yi)最近的参考点,该参考点处的s值即为(xi,yi)在Frenet坐标系下的s值。
而点(xi,yi)在Frenet坐标系下的l值,可以通过如下公式(1)确定:

可选地,在构建坐标系时,车辆所处道路的中心线越平滑,则坐标系的构建效果越好,因而,在构建坐标系时,可以基于通过地图编辑功能处理过的地图,来进行坐标系的构建,从而提高坐标系的构建效果。
在更多可能的实现方式中,若用于构建坐标系的地图中道路中心线不平滑,则可以通过三次样条差值,来对道路中心线进行处理,从而提高道路中心线的平滑程度。
在步骤102中,基于道路在坐标系的横向方向上的障碍物信息、道路在坐标系的纵 向方向上采样后的障碍物信息、自动驾驶车辆所处的位置以及道路的边界,确定可行驶区域。
其中,可行驶区域中不存在障碍物,自动驾驶车辆在该可行驶区域中的各个位置处行驶时,均不会发生碰撞。
基于道路在坐标系的横向方向上的障碍物信息、道路在坐标系的纵向方向上采样后的障碍物信息、自动驾驶车辆所处的位置以及道路的边界,输出自动驾驶车辆行驶时不会发生碰撞的区域的区域边界的坐标值,进而基于所输出的坐标值,确定出对应的区域边界,从而得到可行驶区域。
其中,可行驶区域的边界可以采用如式(2)所示的形式表示:
Figure PCTCN2022070525-appb-000010
其中,s 0,s 1,s 2,...,s n为纵坐标,d min 0,d min 1, d min 2,..., d min n为可行驶区域的左边界,d max 0,d max 1,d max 2,...,d max n为可行驶区域的右边界。
由于道路在横向方向上的距离较小,此时再进行采样,会导致道路横向方向上的障碍物信息严重丢失,通过仅在纵向方向上的障碍物信息使用采样后的结果,而横向方向上的障碍物信息使用未经采样的结果,从而在能够保证降低需要处理的数据量的基础上,保证横向方向上障碍物信息的准确性,而提高确定出的可行驶区域的准确性。
在步骤103中,基于所述可行驶区域和所述自动驾驶车辆在行驶过程中的行驶数据所满足的设定条件,确定所述自动驾驶车辆的行驶路径。
在一种可能的实现方式中,基于自动驾驶车辆在行驶过程中所满足的设定条件,构建目标函数,从而从可行驶区域中,确定出一条使目标函数取值最小的路径,作为自动驾驶车辆的行驶路径。
上述步骤101中构建坐标系的过程可以实时进行,相应地,后续可以基于当前时刻所构建的坐标系,实时进行可行驶区域的确定以及行驶路径的确定。
也即是,在自动驾驶车辆的行驶过程中,可以基于自动驾驶车辆当前所处的位置以及自动驾驶车辆当前所处道路的中心线的位置,实时构建坐标系,从而使得所构建的坐标系能够符合自动驾驶车辆在各个时刻的行驶情况,从而使得本申请能够准确地表示自动驾驶车辆在不同时刻所处道路的路况信息。相应地,在自动驾驶车辆行驶到任一位置时,基于当前时刻所构建的坐标系,来进行可行驶区域的确定以及行驶路径的确定,以 实现可行驶区域的实时更新以及行驶路径的实时更新。
可选地,在当前时刻确定出的可行驶区域和行驶路径,与上一时刻所确定出的可行驶区域和行驶路径相同时,不进行可行驶区域和行驶路径,而继续以上一时刻所确定出的可行驶区域和行驶路径,作为当前时刻的可行驶区域和行驶路径,减少更新次数,从而减少终端的处理压力,进而提高可行驶区域和行驶路径的确定速度。
在本申请中,通过不对道路在横向方向上的障碍物信息进行采样,从而使得本申请能够采用离散化的结果来表示道路在纵向方向上的障碍物信息,采用连续值来表示道路在横向方向上的障碍物信息,以在减少需要处理的计算量的同时,提高横向方向上障碍物信息的准确性,进而结合自动驾驶车辆所处的位置以及道路的边界,来进行可行驶区域的确定,从而提高可行驶区域的确定速度,并使得所确定出的可行驶区域的准确性更高,进而降低自动驾驶车辆在可行驶区域中行驶时发生碰撞的可能性;进一步地,基于准确性更高的可行驶区域来进行行驶路径的确定,从而能够降低所确定出的行驶路径发生碰撞的可能性,进而提高自动驾驶的安全性。
在介绍了本申请的基本实现过程之后,下面具体介绍本申请的各种非限制性实施方式。
在一些实施例中,道路在坐标系的纵向方向上采样后的障碍物信息的获取过程包括:在坐标系的纵向方向上,对道路中的障碍物信息进行采样。
通过在道路中纵向方向上的障碍物信息进行采样,能够减少后续进行可行驶区域和行驶路径的确定过程中的计算量,从而提高可行驶区域和行驶路径的确定速度。
在一种可能的实现方式中,在构建坐标系时,道路中的障碍物被映射为多边形,相应地,在坐标系的纵向方向上,对道路中的障碍物信息进行采样的过程包括:在多边形中与坐标系的纵向方向同向的边上,对多边形对应的障碍物的障碍物信息进行采样。
参见图2A和图2B,是本说明书根据一示例性实施例示出的一种障碍物的坐标系转换结果示意图,在如图2A所示的笛卡尔坐标系中,障碍物为一个矩形ABCD,而在将笛卡尔坐标系转换为Frenet坐标系后,障碍物被映射为一个多边形A’B’C’D’,则在对纵向方向上的障碍物信息进行采样时,可以按照预设的采样间隔,在多边形与纵向方向同向的边上进行采样,也即是,在边A’D’和边B’C’上进行采样,从而实现对纵向方向上的障碍物信息的采样。如图2B所示,在边A’D’上采样后得到位于点A’和点D’之间的三个点,在边B’C’上采样后得到位于点B’和点C’之间的三个点。
虽然在进行坐标系转化时,障碍物的形状会发生变形,但如果在笛卡尔坐标系中使用多边形来表示障碍物,在经过坐标系转换后,Frenet坐标系中的障碍物仍然可以表示为一个多边形,进而通过对多边形的边进行一定程度的采样,即可实现对障碍物信息的采样,无需对障碍物内部所包括的各个点进行采样,减少了采样过程需要处理的数据量, 提高了采样速度,提高了采样效率,从而减少了采样过程的耗时。
可选地,在采样过程中,采样间隔使用固定步长,或者,采样间隔使用不固定步长,本申请对此不加以限定。
在一些实施例中,在基于道路在坐标系的横向方向上的障碍物信息、道路在坐标系的纵向方向上采样后的障碍物信息、自动驾驶车辆所处的位置以及道路的边界,确定可行驶区域时,可以采用多种方式,下面基于两种示例性的方式,对可行驶区域的确定过程进行说明。
在一种可能的实现方式中,基于道路在坐标系的横向方向上的障碍物信息、道路在坐标系的纵向方向上采样后的障碍物信息和道路的边界,获取自动驾驶车辆的行驶方向上的障碍物之间以及障碍物与道路的边界之间的可通行间隙的宽度;将自动驾驶车辆所处的位置作为根节点,按照障碍物与自动驾驶车辆的位置的距离从小到大的顺序,逐层展开获取到的多个可通行间隙,得到第一搜索树;按照述第一搜索树中多个节点对应的宽度从大到小的顺序,保留排序靠前的预设数量的节点;基于所保留的节点对应的宽度,确定可行驶区域。
参见图3,图3是本说明书根据一示例性实施例示出的一种道路的示意图,在如图3所示的道路中,包括301、302、303、304四个障碍物,其中,障碍物301与道路左边界之间的可通行间隙的宽度为w1,障碍物301与障碍物302之间的可通行间隙的宽度为w2,障碍物302与道路右边界之间的可通行间隙的宽度为w3,障碍物303与道路右边界之间的可通行间隙的宽度为w4,障碍物303与障碍物304之间的可通行间隙的宽度为w5,障碍物304与道路左边界之间的可通行间隙的宽度为w6,本申请在基于道路在坐标系的横向方向上的障碍物信息、道路在坐标系的纵向方向上采样后的障碍物信息和道路的边界,获取到上述w1至w6这六个可通行间隙的宽度后,以自动驾驶车辆所处的位置(也即是图3中坐标原点的位置)作为根节点,将宽度为w1、w2、w3的可通行间隙,作为根节点的子节点,将宽度为w4、w5、w6的可通行间隙,作为上述各个子节点的子节点,从而得到如图4所示的第一搜索树,参见图4,图4是本说明书根据一示例性实施例示出的一种第一搜索树的示意图。
以预设数量为2,w1=30,w2=60,w3=25,w4=20,w5=80,w6=15为例,从作为根节点的子节点的w1、w2、w3中,删除宽度最小的w3及对应的子树,保留宽度较大的w1、w2以及对应的子树,进而在w1、w2的子节点中,分别删除宽度最小的w6,保留宽度较大的w4和w5,从而得到剪枝后的第一搜索树,进而基于剪枝后的第一搜索树,确定多条可选的通行路径,进而基于各条通行路径对应的分值,进而基于各条通行路径的分值,确定可行驶区域。其中,分值表示车辆在通行路径上行驶不会发生碰撞的可能性。
可选地,各条可通行路径的分值基于可通行路径中各个可通行间隙的宽度确定,或者,各条可通行路径的分值基于其他音素确定,本申请对此不加以限定。以每条可通行路径的分值基于可通行路径中各个可通行间隙的宽度确定为例,图4所示的第一搜索树剪枝后得到的多条可通行路径包括w1→w4、w1→w5、w2→w4以及w2→w5,而w2→w5这条可通行路径中各个可通行间隙的宽度最大,也即是,w2→w5这条可通行路径的分值最高,从而将w2→w5这条可通行路径对应的区域,也即是,图3中可行驶左边界与可行驶右边界之间的部分对应的区域,确定为可行驶区域。
在另一种可能的实现方式中,基于道路在坐标系的横向方向上的障碍物信息、道路在坐标系的纵向方向上采样后的障碍物信息和道路的边界,获取自动驾驶车辆的行驶方向上的障碍物之间以及障碍物与道路的边界之间的可通行间隙的宽度;将自动驾驶车辆所处的位置作为根节点,按照障碍物与自动驾驶车辆所处的位置的距离从小到大的顺序,遍历多个可通行间隙,得到第二搜索树所包括的多个目标节点,目标节点为距离自动驾驶车辆所处的位置相同的障碍物对应的可通行间隙中,宽度最大的可通行间隙对应的节点;基于目标节点,确定可行驶区域。
仍以如图3所示的道路以及道路中各个可通行间隙的取值为例,本申请在基于道路在坐标系的横向方向上的障碍物信息、道路在坐标系的纵向方向上采样后的障碍物信息和道路的边界,获取到图3中w1至w6这六个可通行间隙的宽度后,将自动驾驶车辆所处的位置作为根节点,并遍历能够作为根节点的子节点的w1、w2、w3,从中确定出对应的可通行间隙的宽度最大的w2,进而遍历能够作为w2的子节点的w4、w5、w6,从中确定出对应的可通行间隙的宽度最大的w5,将w2和w5作为目标节点,从而得到第二搜索树,参见5,图5是本说明书根据一示例性实施例示出的一种第二搜索树的示意图。基于如图5所示的第二搜索树,即可确定目标节点w2和w5对应的区域,也即是图3中可行驶左边界与可行驶右边界之间的部分对应的区域,即为可行驶区域。
需要说明的是,上述仅为确定可行驶区域的两种示例性方式,在另一些实施例中,还可以采用其他的方式来进行可行驶区域的确定,本申请对此不加以限定。
在一些实施例中,在确定自动驾驶车辆的行驶路径时所涉及到的行驶数据包括自动驾驶车辆与障碍物的距离、自动驾驶车辆与道路中心线的距离、自动驾驶车辆的横向位移、自动驾驶车辆的横向速度以及自动驾驶车辆的横向加速度中至少一项,可选地,行驶数据还包括其他类型的数据,本申请对此不加以限定。
相应地,在确定自动驾驶车辆的行驶路径时所涉及到的目标函数,包括自动驾驶车辆与障碍物的距离对应的函数、自动驾驶车辆与道路中心线的距离对应的函数、自动驾驶车辆的横向位移对应的函数、自动驾驶车辆的横向速度对应的函数以及自动驾驶车辆的横向加速度对应的函数中至少一项,或者,其他与行驶数据类型对应的函数。
以行驶数据包括上述几种类型的数据为例,下面分别对基于不同类型的数据进行行驶路径的确定的过程进行说明。
以行驶数据为自动驾驶车辆与障碍物的距离为例,将可行驶区域中,自动驾驶车辆与障碍物的距离最大的位置所构成的路径,确定为行驶路径。
以行驶数据为自动驾驶车辆与道路中心线的距离为例,将可行驶区域中,自动驾驶车辆与道路中心线的距离最小的位置所构成的路径,确定为行驶路径。
以行驶数据为自动驾驶车辆的横向位移为例,将可行驶区域中,自动驾驶车辆的横向位移最小的位置所构成的路径,确定为行驶路径。
以行驶数据为自动驾驶车辆的横向速度为例,将可行驶区域中,自动驾驶车辆的横向速度变化最小的位置所构成的路径,确定为行驶路径。
以行驶数据为自动驾驶车辆的横向加速度为例,将可行驶区域中,自动驾驶车辆的横向加速度最小的位置所构成的路径,确定为行驶路径。
通过基于行驶数据来进行行驶路径的确定,能够使得所确定出的行驶路径更加符合车辆的行驶要求,从而提高自动驾驶车辆的行驶效果。
上述仅为几种确定行驶路径时涉及到的示例性数据,在另一些实施例中,还可以基于其他类型的数据,来进行行驶路径的确定。
此外,还可以综合多种类型的数据,来进行行驶路径的确定,例如,在可行驶区域中,确定一条与障碍物的距离大于距离阈值、且自动驾驶车辆的横向位移最小的位置所构成的路径,作为行驶路径,等等。其中,该距离阈值为任意正数值,本申请对距离阈值的取值不加以限定,通过综合多种类型的数据,从而使得所确定出的行驶路径,在能够保证驾驶安全性的基础上,更加符合车辆的运动学规律,从而提高确定出来的行驶路径的准确性和可行性。
