  • Publication number: 20230406351
    Abstract: This disclosure relates to methods and systems for vehicle simulation, testing, and validation. The method may include defining one or more test cases for a vehicle stack based on system requirements; linking the one or more test cases to one or more parameterized scenarios, where the one or more parameterized scenarios include one or more parameter permutations; and testing the vehicle stack using the one or more test cases and the one or more parameterized scenarios.

  • Publication number: 20230237331
    Abstract: A neural network architecture is used that reduces the processing load of implementing the neural network. This network architecture may thus be used for reduced-bit processing devices. The architecture may limit the number of bits used for processing and reduce processing to prevent data overflow at individual calculations of the neural network. To implement this architecture, the number of bits used to represent inputs at levels of the network and the related filter masks may also be modified to ensure the number of bits of the output does not overflow the resulting capacity of the reduced-bit processor. To additionally reduce the load for such a network, the network may implement a “starconv” structure that permits the incorporation of nearby nodes in a layer to balance processing requirements and permit the network to learn from context of other nodes.
