    Abstract: A method may include monitoring, by a processor associated with an autonomous vehicle, a status of a traffic light. The method may include monitoring, by the processor, a movement status of at least one vehicle within a same lane as the autonomous vehicle, the at least one vehicle having a stationary position in relation to the traffic light. The method may include executing, by the processor, a computer model to predict a change of movement status for the at least one vehicle in accordance with the status of the traffic light. The method may include in response to the computer model predicting a change of movement status for the at least one vehicle from the stationary position to a moving status, instructing, by the processor, the autonomous vehicle to increase a torque value of the autonomous vehicle at a predetermined time before the change of the movement status.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for generating safe driving paths in autonomous driving adversity conditions can include receiving, by a computer system including one or more processors, sensor data of a vehicle that is traveling. The sensor data can be indicative of one or more autonomous driving adversity conditions, and can include image data depicting surroundings of the vehicle. The method can include executing, by the computer system, a trained machine learning model to predict, using the sensor data, a trajectory to be followed by the vehicle through the one or more autonomous driving adversity conditions, and providing, by the computer system, an indication of the predicted trajectory to an autonomous driving system of the vehicle.

    Abstract: Systems and methods of automatic correction of map data for autonomous vehicle navigation are disclosed. An autonomous vehicle system can receive first sensor data from a first sensor of an autonomous vehicle and second sensor data from a second sensor of the autonomous vehicle, the first sensor data and the second sensor data captured during operation of the autonomous vehicle; generate, based on the first sensor data, a first prediction of a dimension of a lane of a road; generate, based on the second sensor data, a second prediction of a position of the autonomous vehicle within the lane of the road; determine a confidence value for the second prediction of the position of the autonomous vehicle within the lane of the road based on the first prediction and the second prediction; and navigate the autonomous vehicle based on the confidence value.

    Abstract: An autonomous vehicle including a Kalman filter error recovery system is disclosed. The Kalman filter error recovery system includes at least one processor and at least one memory storing instructions, which, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the Kalman filter error recovery system to perform operations including increasing eigenvalues of a covariance matrix to adjust probability distribution of a state vector error due to unmodelled process noise in measurements from one or more position sensors, and returning the state covariance to a diagonal state to perform a dynamic covariance reset.

    Abstract: An energy supply station can include a mechanical arm, an energy delivery receptacle, and one or more processors. The processors can be configured to detect an arrival of a vehicle at the energy supply station; transmit an indication of the arrival to a remote computer, causing activation of a virtual interface; and move the mechanical arm, based on input at the virtual interface, to cause the energy delivery receptacle to contact or couple with an energy input receptacle of the vehicle.

    Abstract: An autonomous vehicle including a microphone array of a plurality of microphones, a visual sensor network configured to receive visual signals, at least one processor, and at least one memory storing instructions is disclosed. The instructions, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to: (i) generate spatial beamforming maps locating a sound source using a beamforming model corresponding to acoustic signals received at the plurality of microphones of the microphone array; (ii) apply a synthetic aperture expansion to the acoustic signals to increase resolution of the spatial beamforming maps; and (iii) generate feature maps for an application in autonomous vehicle driving by combining the improved spatial beamforming maps with visualization maps generated based on the visual signals received by the visual sensor network.

    Abstract: Aspects of this technical solution can include a method of calibration of a inertial navigation system of a vehicle. The method can include obtaining, from a first vehicle at a second vehicle by a communication interface coupled with the first vehicle and the second vehicle, with first data indicating a direction of gravity relative to a physical orientation of the first vehicle. The method can include obtaining, from the first vehicle at the second vehicle by the communication interface, with second data of the first vehicle indicating the physical orientation of the first vehicle, during movement of the first vehicle caused by the second vehicle. And the method can include generating, at the second vehicle during the movement of the first vehicle and based on the first data and the second data, third data corresponding to a calibration of the physical orientation of the first vehicle.
