Patent number: 10870450Abstract: A vehicle control apparatus estimates a curvature of the own lane ahead of the own vehicle based on both left and right markings in a captured image and performs a steering control of the own vehicle based on the estimated curvature of the own lane. The control unit determines the direction of the own vehicle and determines whether a change in the road slope is present. When the vehicle control apparatus determines that the direction of the own vehicle changes and the road slope ahead of the own vehicle changes, the vehicle control apparatus applies a restriction to the steering control performed based on the curvature of the own lane.Type: GrantFiled: December 26, 2018Date of Patent: December 22, 2020Assignee: DENSO CORPORATIONInventor: Yusuke Matsumoto

Publication number: 20200394528Abstract: A prediction model can be created by reading an objective variable and a plurality of explanatory variables into a memory, and subsequently calculating a degree of influence of each of the plurality of explanatory variables on the objective variable. The determination of whether the two highest degrees of influence are approximate with each other or not can be performed. In the case that the two highest degrees of influence are approximate with each other, then a stepwise method can be carried out in order to select one explanatory variable among the plurality of explanatory variables. A prediction model can be subsequently created using the selected explanatory variable.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 11, 2019Publication date: December 17, 2020Inventors: Yasue Makino, Hiromi Kobayashi, Yusuke Matsumoto, Hirokazu Kobayashi
