  • System and method for automated lane conflict estimation in autonomous vehicle driving and map generation
    Patent number: 11965749
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and autonomous vehicles for automated lane conflict estimation may obtain map data associated with a map of a geographic location including a roadway, determine, based on the map data, a relative lane geometry between a first lane segment and a second lane segment of a pair of overlapping lane segments; process, with a machine learning model, the relative lane geometry and a type of a traffic signal or sign associated with the pair of overlapping lane segments to generate a prediction of whether the first lane segment yields to the second lane segment for a given state of the traffic signal or sign; and use the prediction to at least one of generate a map including the lane segment associated with the prediction, facilitate at least one autonomous driving operation of an autonomous vehicle, or any combination thereof.
