  • Publication number: 20210387653
    Abstract: A reconstruction method for a secure environment envelope of a smart vehicle based on the driving behavior of a vehicle in front, starting from the simulation of the behavior of a real driver pre-estimating the potential collision risk of the drive area in front, introducing a prediction regarding the driving behavior of the vehicle in front to the environment sensing link of the smart vehicle, reconstructing, on the basis of the prediction result regarding the driving behavior of the vehicle in front, a secure environment envelope of the smart vehicle. The method uses a signal as an observed value, such as the trajectory point sequence of the vehicle in front, the indicators of the vehicle in front, the smart vehicle speed, the relative longitudinal speed of the smart vehicle and the vehicle in front, etc.

  • Patent number: 10635929
    Abstract: The present invention belongs to the field of machine vision. A saliency-based method for extracting a road target from a night vision infrared image is disclosed. The method combines saliencies of the time domain and the frequency domain, global contrast and local contrast, and low level features and high level features, and energy radiation is also considered to be a saliency factor; thus, the object of processing is an infrared image and not the usual natural image. The extraction of a salient region is performed on the raw natural image on the basis of energy radiation, and the obtained extraction result if the salient region is more accurate and thorough, and the contour of a target in the salient region is clearer.

  • Publication number: 20190263399
    Abstract: Provided is an intelligent vehicle safety driving envelope reconstruction method on the basis of integrated spatial and dynamic characteristics. Starting from simulating an actual driver's estimation of potential collision risks in the forward driving area, a prediction result of a front vehicle driving behavior is introduced to an environment perception link of the intelligent vehicle; on the basis of the prediction result of the front vehicle driving behavior, a safety driving envelope of the intelligent vehicle is reconstructed by integrating spatial and dynamic characteristics (a safety environment envelope reconstruction and a stable control envelope reconstruction), so as to improve the safety and stability of intelligent vehicle.
