  • Patent number: 11710153
    Abstract: Embodiments herein can determine an optimal route for an autonomous electric vehicle. The system may score viable routes between the start and end locations of a trip using a numeric or other scale that denotes how viable the route is for autonomy. The score is adjusted using a variety of factors where a learning process leverages both offline and online data. The scored routes are not based simply on the shortest distance between the start and end points but determine the best route based on the driving context for the vehicle and the user.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10747833
    Abstract: A network crawler crawls one or more media sites to extract a plurality of titles for information contained in the one or more media sites. For example, the network crawler may extract the titles on the one or more media sites by identifying different computer formats and converting the titles in the different computer formats into a common computer format for comparison. User profiles which, includes user's interest are stored in a user profile interest database. A novel personalized news recommendation engine recommends news similar to the interest specified in a user profile, where maximum weighted matching is applied to score the similarity of news against user interest in the word2vec space.

  • Patent number: 10410250
    Abstract: Embodiments herein relate to an autonomous vehicle or self-driving vehicle. The level of comfort with autonomous driving offered to the user and the parameters of operation of the autonomous vehicle might increase or decrease a driver's comfort (anxiety) with the vehicle. Sensors in the vehicle can detect a user's driving style, comfort level and may propose an autonomy level to the user and/or parameters of operation.

  • Publication number: 20190186939
    Abstract: Systems of an autonomous vehicle and the operations thereof are provided. The vehicle can predict a user's trip using his or her history of past trips, the relevant context, and the current environmental conditions. The navigation system of the vehicle can use historical GPS data, defined by the sequence of position measurements, of a given vehicle to determine frequently visited locations. Then, the navigation system may augment the learned knowledge of frequently visited locations and routes with the relevant context and environmental conditions to make recommendations on the locations the user is most likely to visit and the route most likely to drive on. More specifically, the navigation system can automatically cluster historical trips by similarity (e.g., trips with similar contexts and/or environmental conditions), while identifying, mitigating, and/or eliminating the potential for statistical outliers (trips taken by a driver that are infrequent and thus less useful for predicting future trips).
