Abstract: The present disclosure provides a vehicle behavior prediction method and apparatus, an electronic device, and a computer-readable storage medium, which relates to the field of intelligent driving. The method includes: determining a target traffic light corresponding to t a target vehicle a current intersection; determining a neighboring traffic light corresponding to the target traffic light and the indication status of the neighboring traffic light according to the target traffic light, the indication status of the target traffic light and a traffic light status mapping relationship table; acquiring a position of an obstacle vehicle and predicting each possible travel path of the obstacle vehicle, and determining a traffic light corresponding to each possible travel path; and determining a final possible travel path of the obstacle vehicle according to each possible travel path and the indication status of the traffic light corresponding to each possible travel path.

Abstract: Provided herein is a tungsten-rhenium composite thin film thermocouple based on a surface micropillar array with gas holes. A tungsten-rhenium thin film thermocouple is arranged on a surface of a flat alumina ceramic substrate. Two tails of the tungsten-rhenium thin film thermocouple are respectively connected to a lead wire. A surface of the tungsten-rhenium thin film thermocouple is arrayed with a plurality of micron alumina micropillars to form an alumina micropillar array. Air is filled between the micron alumina micropillars to form the gas holes. The flat alumina ceramic substrate, the tungsten-rhenium thin film thermocouple and the alumina micropillar array form a three-layered laminated structure.

Abstract: A method for determining passage of an autonomous vehicle includes: acquiring information about an intersection on a driving route of the autonomous vehicle, wherein the information about the intersection comprises lane data; acquiring a historical trajectory of an obstacle in the intersection within a specific time; acquiring, by matching the historical trajectory of the obstacle with center lines of respective lanes in the lane data, a lane with smallest matching error; and determining that the lane with the smallest matching error is in a passable state, wherein the lane with the smallest matching error is a lane where the obstacle is located.
