The energy management strategies (EMS) for hybrid electric vehicles (HEV) have a great impact on the fuel economy (FE). The Pontryagin's minimum principle (PMP) has been proved to be a viable control strategy for HEV. The optimal costate of the PMP control can be determined by the given information of the driving conditions. Since the full knowledge of future driving conditions is not available, this paper proposed a dynamic optimization method for PMP costate without the prediction of the driving cycle. It is known that the lower fuel consumption the method yields, the more efficiently the engine works. The selection of costate is designed to make the engine work in the high efficiency range. Compared with the rule-based control, the proposed method by the principle of Hamiltonian, can make engine working points have more opportunities locating in the middle of high efficiency range, instead of on the boundary of high efficiency range.

The prediction of agents' future trajectory is a crucial task in supporting advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) and plays a vital role in ensuring safe decisions for autonomous driving (AD). Currently, prevailing trajectory prediction methods heavily rely on high-definition maps (HD maps) as a source of prior knowledge. While HD maps enhance the accuracy of trajectory prediction by providing information about the surrounding environment, their widespread use is limited due to their high cost and legal restrictions. Furthermore, due to object occlusion, limited field of view, and other factors, the historical trajectory of the target agent is often incomplete This limitation significantly reduces the accuracy of trajectory prediction. Therefore, this paper proposes ETSA-Pred, a mapless trajectory prediction model that incorporates enhanced temporal modeling and spatial self-attention.
