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 of determining distance bounds for adaptive cruise control. An autonomous vehicle system can identify a second vehicle on the roadway that is traveling in front of the autonomous vehicle; determine a speed of the second vehicle while the second vehicle travels along the roadway; generate a distance bound between the autonomous vehicle and the second vehicle based on the speed of the second vehicle and a speed of the autonomous vehicle; and control the speed of the autonomous vehicle to implement adaptive cruise control according to the distance bound.
