- 用历史车距数据实时更新风险椭圆,融合前后距离与横向不确定性。
- 在复杂交互场景中实现零碰撞,平均速度更高,轨迹更平稳。
- 适合需要高安全性和实时适应性的智能驾驶系统部署。
近年来,保障交互式自动驾驶中的安全性、效率与舒适性成为关键挑战。传统基于模型的方法(如博弈论和鲁棒控制)往往过于保守或计算量大;学习型方法通常需大量训练数据,且可解释性与泛化能力有限。简单策略如风险势场(RPF)虽轻量低数据需求,但本质静态,难以适应动态交通。为此,我们提出进化风险势场(ERPF),基于历史障碍物接近数据动态更新动态场景中的风险评估。引入风险椭圆结构,将纵向可达距离与横向不确定性融合为统一时空碰撞包络。同时定义自适应进化因子,通过对碰撞时间(TTC)和危险时窗(TWH)进行Sigmoid归一化,实时调节椭圆轴长。该自适应风险度量无缝集成至模型预测控制(MPC)框架,使自动驾驶车辆能主动应对周围车辆的不确定性行为。全面对比实验表明,所提ERPF-MPC方法在复杂交互驾驶场景中持续实现更平滑轨迹、更高平均速度与零碰撞导航,提供一种鲁棒且自适应的解决方案。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
In recent years, ensuring safety, efficiency, and comfort in interactive autonomous driving has become a critical challenge. Traditional model-based techniques, such as game-theoretic methods and robust control, are often overly conservative or computationally intensive. Conversely, learning-based approaches typically require extensive training data and frequently exhibit limited interpretability and generalizability. Simpler strategies, such as Risk Potential Fields (RPF), provide lightweight alternatives with minimal data demands but are inherently static and struggle to adapt effectively to dynamic traffic conditions. To overcome these limitations, we propose the Evolutionary Risk Potential Field (ERPF), a novel approach that dynamically updates risk assessments in dynamical scenarios based on historical obstacle proximity data. We introduce a Risk-Ellipse construct that combines longitudinal reach and lateral uncertainty into a unified spatial temporal collision envelope. Additionally, we define an adaptive Evolution Factor metric, computed through sigmoid normalization of Time to Collision (TTC) and Time-Window-of-Hazard (TWH), which dynamically adjusts the dimensions of the ellipse axes in real time. This adaptive risk metric is integrated seamlessly into a Model Predictive Control (MPC) framework, enabling autonomous vehicles to proactively address complex interactive driving scenarios in terms of uncertain driving of surrounding vehicles. Comprehensive comparative experiments demonstrate that our ERPF-MPC approach consistently achieves smoother trajectories, higher average speeds, and collision-free navigation, offering a robust and adaptive solution suitable for complex interactive driving environments.
