A 7-degree-of-freedom dynamic model of the vehicle is firstly established and the stability situation is analyzed. According to the analysis results, an additional yaw moment controller based on sliding mode control (SMC) is designed. The yaw angle, yaw rate and lateral displacement are selected as the control variables, and the bilateral adjustment method is adopted to adjust the vehicle attitude in time and prevent vehicle deviation. A slip rate controller based on PID control is also designed to improve the stability margin. Based on the Carsim-Simulink co-simulation platform, the strategy was verified under the conditions of uniform low-adhesion roads and split roads. Simulation results indicate that compared with no control strategy, the proposed strategy has achieved better results and can effectively improve the straight-line driving stability of vehicles.","PeriodicalId":419836,"journal":{"name":"2021 5th CAA International Conference on Vehicular Control and Intelligence (CVCI)","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131368639","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

With the development of nonparametric methods, artificial neural network has been widely employed in the predictive task in the past few years and a significant representative is long short-term neural network (LSTM NN). One of the noteworthy advantages of LSTM is its outstanding ability to overcome the issue of back-propagated error decay and thus demonstrated excellent effect of time series forecasting with long-term dependence. At present LSTM has been deeply researched and has been proved to be a very effective manner to capture nonlinear velocity dynamics. In this paper, various input settings are introduced to study how different variables affect the predictive performance of LSTM. Historical acceleration, the velocity of preceding vehicle, and the distance between adjacent cars are used as supplementary information that input to the model for velocity prediction and the application of real data validated that the predictive performance of the model varies with the input variables. The results show that the inclusion of the velocity of preceding vehicle help to enhance the performance of the model best overall.","PeriodicalId":419836,"journal":{"name":"2021 5th CAA International Conference on Vehicular Control and Intelligence (CVCI)","volume":"689 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125687405","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Meanwhile, this method typically requires vast amounts of training data to reach their full potential. However, collecting the data from real world and labeling manually is an expensive, time-consuming and error-prone process. Synthetic image has the potential to replace real image for training neural networks, because image creation and labeling annotations are free in this way. For the network trained by synthetic images, the reality gap between real and synthetic images is the main obstacle to use it in the real world. And most previous works are only devoted to generate synthetic images with a good performance on model training, but lack of analysis of the domain gap that affects the performance. This work designs a method of generating the real and synthetic images to analyze and reduce the reality gap between synthetic and real images for car detection. Firstly, this work put one single car with no-background in a random background image to generate real single car and synthetic single car images. In order to further reduce the domain gap in content level, this method keeps the car distribution in synthetic images is similar with the distribution of car in real world. For the purpose of reducing the domain gap in appearance level, the parameters of camera model are same as the camera parameters of image collecting cars and the image is rendered by using the PBRT(Physically Based Ray Tracing) when we generated the synthetic images. Secondly, by training the neural network of instance segmentation with different datasets, the across validation result proves that the reality gap between synthetic and real images is no more than the domain gap between real images. Thirdly, the training results of datasets with different samples diversity show that the diversity of the samples yields better generalization between different datasets for car detection which can effectively reduce the domain gap.","PeriodicalId":419836,"journal":{"name":"2021 5th CAA International Conference on Vehicular Control and Intelligence (CVCI)","volume":"47 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124203268","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Such kind of advanced driver assistance system must ensure safety via a risk assessment module to initiate human take-over request if necessary. In lane keeping scenario, accurate trajectory prediction of the ego vehicle is vital to lane departure risk assessment. Thanks to automated driving, the actual control laws are known or can be learnt, which can support more precise prediction. Here we propose a Kalman predictor with actual control laws for future ego vehicle trajectory prediction. With a simulated scenario with varying velocity and road curvature, the algorithm is proved effective and outperforms traditional physics-based trajectory prediction benchmarks. Comparison between algorithms considering only lateral control law is also carried out, and results show that the algorithm considering both longitudinal and lateral control laws has better prediction accuracy. The proposed algorithm is promising to be applied in risk assessment module of hands-free driving functions.","PeriodicalId":419836,"journal":{"name":"2021 5th CAA International Conference on Vehicular Control and Intelligence (CVCI)","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129007804","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

(2) The heuristic term of hybrid A* is improved by adding a penalty term of obstacle distance to the Reeds-shepp (RS) curve as the heuristic term, which improves the problem that the RS curve is too close to the obstacle.
