High-speed vehicles in low illumination environments severely blur the images used in object detectors, which poses a potential threat to object detector-based advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and autonomous driving systems. Augmenting the training images for object detectors is an efficient way to mitigate the threat from motion blur. However, little attention has been paid to the motion of the vehicle and the position of objects in the traffic scene, which limits the consistence between the resulting augmented images and traffic scenes. In this paper, we present a vehicle kinematics-based image augmentation algorithm by modeling and analyzing the traffic scenes to generate more realistic augmented images and achieve higher robustness improvement on object detectors against motion blur. Firstly, we propose a traffic scene model considering vehicle motion and the relationship between the vehicle and the object in the traffic scene.

In order to realize driving safety in highway scenarios, autonomous vehicles need to predict and reason about the driving intentions and motion trajectories of surrounding target vehicles in the near feature. Essentially, trajectory prediction of target vehicles can be viewed as a typical time series generation problem, which predicts the future trajectory of the vehicle through analyzing the input of historical trajectory information or its control signals. In actual traffic scenarios, the movement between vehicles is a process of mutual game and cooperation, namely the future trajectory of a vehicle is not only related to its own historical trajectory, but also to surrounding vehicles motion. However, different surrounding traffic participants have different influence on the target vehicle, and the future motion of the vehicle is often affected by some specific surrounding traffic agents deeply.
