Abstract: Embodiments include methods, systems, and computer readable storage medium for a method for providing path-planning guidance by resolving multiple behavioral predictions associated with operating a vehicle is disclosed. The method includes installing a vehicle system into a vehicle, wherein the vehicle system provides path planning guidance based on training data using and fused hypotheses and/or decisions associated with the training data. The method further includes determining, by a processor, a location of the vehicle on a map containing a road network, and determining, by the processor, whether one or more agents exist within a predetermined range of the vehicle. The method further includes selecting, by the processor, an output trajectory to traverse the road network based on the location of the vehicle on the map and the existence of one or more agents. The method further includes controlling, by the processor, operation of the vehicle using the output trajectory.

Abstract: A method, autonomous vehicle and system for operating an autonomous vehicle. A sensor obtains data of an agent. A processor determines a measure of complexity of the environment in which the autonomous vehicle is operating from the sensor data, selects a control scheme for operating the autonomous vehicle based on the determined complexity, and operates the autonomous vehicle using the selected control scheme.

Abstract: Embodiments include methods, systems and computer readable storage medium for a method for collision avoidance by a vehicle is disclosed. The method includes installing a vehicle system into a vehicle, wherein the vehicle system provides collision avoidance guidance based on training data using movement information from one or more agents and behaviors associated with one or more individuals associated with the one or more agents or the vehicle. The method further includes detecting, by a processor, a collision course between the vehicle and the one or more mobile agents and/or one or more stationary agents. The method further includes calculating, by the processor, one or more decisions that avoid a collision in response to detecting a collision course. The method further includes selecting, by the processor, a decision from the one or more decisions and controlling, by the processor, operation of the vehicle based on the selected decision.

Abstract: Described is an improved brain-machine interface including a neural interface and a controllable device in communication with the neural interface. The neural interface includes a neural device with one or more sensors for collecting signals of interest and one or more processors for conditioning the signals of interest, extracting salient neural features from and decoding the conditioned signals of interest, and generating a control command for the controllable device. The controllable device performs one or more operations according to the control command, and the neural device administers neuromodulation stimulation to reinforce operation of the controllable device.

Abstract: An autonomous vehicle, system and method of operating the autonomous vehicle. The system includes a performance evaluator, a decision module and a navigation system. The performance evaluator determines a performance grade for each of a plurality of decisions for operating the autonomous vehicle. The decision module selects a decision have a greatest performance grade. The navigation system operates the autonomous vehicle using the selected decision.
