Solution Overview

Problem

Existing autonomous emergency braking (AEB) systems in vehicles rely on a single decision-making model, which can lead to false triggering in non-emergency situations due to perception errors or interference, posing a threat to vehicle safety and affecting the driving experience.

Innovation Solution

An intelligent driving decision-making method that combines a numerical domain analysis with an image domain reasoning to determine the intersection relationship between a vehicle and a target object, using multiple decision-making models to enhance accuracy and reduce false triggering.

AI summary

An intelligent driving decision-making method, device, storage medium, and electronic device are disclosed. The method includes: determining, based on driving data detected by a vehicle, a first motion parameter of the vehicle, a second motion parameter of a target object with a collision risk relative to the vehicle, and a safety margin; determining, based on the first motion parameter and the second motion parameter, a time to collision at which the vehicle is predicted to collide with the target object, and an intersection relationship between the vehicle and the target object in an image domain during a collision period from the current time to a collision time; determining, based on the first motion parameter, the second motion parameter, the safety margin, and the time to collision, an emergency braking decision-making result in response to the time to collision being less than or equal to the preset duration threshold and the intersection relationship being an intersection; performing intelligent driving of the vehicle based on the emergency braking decision-making result.
