Discretionary lane changing is commonly seen in highway driving. Intelligent vehicles are expected to change lanes discretionarily for better driving experience and higher traffic efficiency. This study proposed to optimize the decision-making and trajectory-planning process so that intelligent vehicles made lane changes not only with driving safety taken into account, but also with the goal to improve driving comfort as well as to meet the driver’ s expectation. The mechanism of how various factors contribute to the driver’s intention to change lanes was studied by carrying out a series of driving simulation experiments, and a Lane-Changing Intention Generation (LCIG) model based on Bi-directional Long Short-Term Memory (Bi-LSTM) was proposed.

Accurate surrounding vehicle motion prediction is critical for enabling safe, high quality autonomous driving decision-making and motion planning. Aiming at the problem that the current deep learning-based trajectory prediction methods are not accurate and effective for extracting the interaction between vehicles and the road environment information, we design a target vehicle intention-aware dual attention network (IDAN), which establishes a multi-task learning framework combining intention network and trajectory prediction network, imposing dual constraints. The intention network generates an intention encoding representing the driver’s intention information. It inputs it into the attention module of the trajectory prediction network to assist the trajectory prediction network to achieve better prediction accuracy.

For intelligent vehicles, a robust perception system relies on training datasets with a large variety of scenes. The architecture of federated learning allows for efficient collaborative model iteration while ensuring privacy and security by leveraging data from multiple parties. However, the local data from different participants is often not independent and identically distributed, significantly affecting the training effectiveness of autonomous driving perception models in the context of federated learning. Unlike the well-studied issues of label distribution discrepancies in previous work, we focus on the challenges posed by scene heterogeneity in the context of federated learning for intelligent vehicles and the inadequacy of a single scene for training multi-task perception models. In this paper, we propose a federated learning-based perception model training system.
