  • Publication number: 20240086722
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for generating solutions to decision analysis problems. The systems include a processor configured to: receive input data relating to a decision analysis problem, the input data including various parameters, wherein one or more of the parameters are in conflict, generate a plurality of the solutions based on the input data, wherein each of the plurality of solutions are from distinct homotopy classes, approximate a Pareto front using a multi-objective evolutionary algorithm, the Pareto front representing a collection of the plurality of the solutions that are not inferior to others of the plurality of the solutions in view of an entirety of the parameters in the input data, generate a course of action (COA) menu presenting solution architypes based on the Pareto front using a topological clustering algorithm, and display the COA menu on a visual display device.

  • Publication number: 20230194662
    Abstract: A method for controlling the function of a vehicle radar transceiver (3), where the method includes transmitting (S100) a radar signal (5) and collecting and storing (S300) target data comprising a received detected signal level obtained from the reflected radar signals (6) that have been reflected by at least one target object (7) during a measurement angular interval (21). The method further includes determining (S400) that the radar transceiver (3) is functioning properly when at least one of the following conditions is met: the detected signal level exceeds a minimum signal level (12) during an angular interval (?i) included in a measurement angular interval (21); and a detected signal level change for a certain angular change falls below a certain limit during an angular interval (?i) included in the measurement angular interval (21).
