  • Publication number: 20240132112
    Abstract: Among other things, techniques are described for path-based trajectory prediction (e.g., for autonomous driving). The technique includes: obtaining information about one or more agents in a portion of an environment where a vehicle is operating, the information including data associated with locations of the one or more agents in the portion of the environment; for each of at least one agent of the one or more agents, determining a reference path for the agent based on a location of the agent in the environment, and predicting a future trajectory of the agent based on the reference path; and operating the vehicle based on one or more predicted future trajectories of the at least one agent of the one or more agents.

  • Publication number: 20230294741
    Abstract: A method, a system, and a non-transitory storage media for determining agent importance prediction for autonomous driving. Input features associated with agents present in an environment surrounding a vehicle are processed. Output features associated with the agents are determined based on the input features. An importance of each agent is predicted using the output features. One or more movements of the vehicle are determined based on the predicted agent importance.

  • Publication number: 20040029443
    Abstract: Several embodiments of a hermetic terminal assembly are disclosed and an associated method. The terminal assembly includes a metallic body that has body a bottom portion. The bottom portion includes an interior surface, an exterior surface and at least one opening. The terminal assembly also includes a current-conducting pin extending longitudinally through the opening, and a prefabricated dielectric retainer receiving the pin and covering at least a portion of the interior surface and surrounding at least a portion of the opening. The terminal assembly includes a dielectric epoxy bonding to the body, the retainer and the pin, and providing a seal between the pin and the opening in the bottom portion through which the pin is extending. In another embodiment, the prefabricated retainer may be omitted entirely.
