Understanding Road Scene Situation and Semantic Representation of Road Scene Situation for Reliable Sharing

摘要

In an example embodiment, a computer-implemented method is disclosed that receives road scene data and vehicle operation data from one or more sensors associated with a first vehicle on a road segment; receives situation ontology data; automatically generates a semantic road scene description of the road segment using the road scene data, the vehicle operation data, and the situation ontology data; and transmits, via a communication network, the semantic road scene description to one or more other vehicles associated with the road segment. Automatically generating the semantic road scene description of the road segment can include determining lane-level activity information for each lane based on lane information and dynamic road object information and determining a lane-level spatial layout for each lane based on the lane information and the dynamic road object information.
