  • Patent number: 12292294
    Abstract: A vehicle travel route control system controls a plurality of vehicles having an autonomous driving function or a driving assist function, wherein a vehicle dispatch information data server creates a travel route map, in which driving mode switching position at which vehicles have switched over during travel to the manual driving mode from the autonomous driving mode, have been added to a road map. Based on the travel route map, a travel route that avoids the driving mode switching position is calculated from among a plurality of routes on which a dispatch vehicle candidate travels to a destination via user position. When a travel route that avoids the driving mode switching position is calculated, a dispatch vehicle candidate is set as a dispatch vehicle, and the calculated travel route information is transmitted to an on-board unit mounted in the dispatch vehicle.

  • Patent number: 12289184
    Abstract: An estimation system generates, from a value of a time series of an estimation object in a past period, a plurality of patterns of a transition of a value of the estimation object. Based on the plurality of generated patterns and a value of a time series of a factor in the past period, the estimation system specifies a dependency relationship between a transition pattern and a value of the factor and a transition pattern at a past (or future) time point and identifies a model in accordance with the specified dependency relationship. By inputting a value of a time series of the factor in a future period to the estimation model, the estimation system specifies a time series of a value in the future period of the estimation object using at least one transition pattern.
