Collaborative processing and data optimization of environmental perception technologies for autonomous vehicles

Abstract

Purpose Autonomous driving depends on the collection, processing and analysis of environmental information and vehicle information. Environmental perception and processing are important prerequisite for the safety of self-driving of vehicles; it involves road boundary detection, vehicle detection, pedestrian detection using sensors such as laser rangefinder, video camera, vehicle borne radar, etc. Design/methodology/approach Subjected to various environmental factors, the data clock information is often out of sync because of different data acquisition frequency, which leads to the difficulty in data fusion. In this study, according to practical requirements, a multi-sensor environmental perception collaborative method was first proposed; then, based on the principle of target priority, large-scale priority, moving target priority and difference priority, a multi-sensor data fusion optimization algorithm based on convolutional neural network was proposed. Findings The average unload scheduling delay of the algorithm for test data before and after optimization under different network transmission rates. It can be seen that with the improvement of network transmission rate and processing capacity, the unload scheduling delay decreased after optimization and the performance of the test results is the closest to the optimal solution indicating the excellent performance of the optimization algorithm and its adaptivity to different environments. Originality/value In this paper, the results showed that the proposed method significantly improved the redundancy and fault tolerance of the system thus ensuring fast and correct decision-making during driving.

Study on coupling coordination and collaborative optimization system of water-energy-grain

“…Therefore, in order to promote the coordinated development of w-e-f relationship in a province, this essay intends to carry out collaborative optimization of water resources and energy consumption in agricultural production. Considering that the irrigation water demand and energy consumption of various crops are obviously different, and the demand of crops is also replaceable to a certain extent, the resource pressure can be reduced by adjusting the crop planting structure (Chai and Yang, 2020;Song et al, 2021). Based on this, on the basis of reference to relevant research, this essay establishes a multi-objective optimization model to synergistically optimize the water and energy consumption of the agricultural system, and redistributes the limited available irrigation water and energy among various crops on the premise of meeting various constraints.…”

Obstacle detection and obstacle-surmounting planning for a wheel-legged robot based on Lidar

“…Environmental perception is one of the key technologies in the field of autonomous obstacle crossing. Its main function is to use various sensors on the robot to obtain environmental information and provide information support for the robot in obstacle detection, path planning, map building and other functions (Song et al , 2021; Zhang et al , 2021). Lidar has the advantages of good directivity and strong anti-interference ability.…”

Research on intelligent vehicle object detection algorithm based on DC-YOLOv8s

“…As a product of the progress of human science and technology, intelligent vehicles provide a new way to solve the problem of frequent traffic accidents and traffic jams. Environmental perception is the most important part of intelligent vehicles, and strong environmental perception ability is the primary condition for safe driving of intelligent vehicles [3]. Perceptual objects generally include dynamic objects and static objects [4].…”
