Abstract
The invention relates to a method for operating a motor vehicle system which is designed to guide the motor vehicle in different driving situation classes in a fully automated manner. The method includes ascertaining a current driving situation class from multiple specified driving situation classes using at least some of driving situation data, each driving situation class is assigned at least one analysis function. The method further includes retrieving configuration parameter sets assigned to the analysis functions of the current driving situation class from a database and producing analysis units which carry out the analysis function and which have not yet been provided by configuring configuration objects using the retrieved configuration parameter sets.
Claims20
A method for operating a motor vehicle system, which is designed to guide a motor vehicle in different driving situation classes in a fully automated manner, the method comprising:
- dynamically producing, from a configuration object and using configuration parameter sets, at least some of analysis units designed as neural nets at least partly using software, during runtime,
- wherein a computing structure comprising the analysis units is used to ascertain control data as driving situation data for guiding the motor vehicle in the fully automated manner and is used to use the control data to guide the motor vehicle, the control data is ascertained from surroundings data describing surroundings of the motor vehicle and ego data describes a state of the motor vehicle,
- wherein each analysis unit is configured to ascertain output data from output data of at least one other analysis unit or the driving situation data, and
- wherein the dynamically producing the at least some of analysis units comprises:
- ascertaining a current driving situation class from multiple specified driving situation classes using at least some of the driving situation data, wherein each driving situation class is assigned at least one analysis function,
- retrieving, from a database, the configuration parameter sets assigned to analysis functions of the current driving situation class, and
- producing analysis units that carry out the analysis functions of the current driving situation class and that have not yet been provided by configuring configuration objects using the retrieved configuration parameter sets.
A motor vehicle, comprising:
- a motor vehicle system configured to guide the motor vehicle in different driving situation classes in a fully automated manner;
- and
- a control device configured to:
- dynamically produce, from a configuration object and using configuration parameter sets, at least some of analysis units designed as neural nets at least partly using software during runtime,
- wherein a computing structure comprising the analysis units is used to ascertain control data as driving situation data for guiding the motor vehicle in the fully automated manner and is used to use the control data to guide the motor vehicle, the control data is ascertained from surroundings data describing surroundings of the motor vehicle and ego data describes a state of the motor vehicle,
- wherein each analysis unit is configured to ascertain output data from output data of at least one other analysis unit or the driving situation data, and
- wherein to dynamically produce the at least some of analysis units, the control device is configured to:
- ascertain a current driving situation class from multiple specified driving situation classes using at least some of the driving situation data, wherein each driving situation class is assigned at least one analysis function,
- retrieve, from a database, the configuration parameter sets assigned to analysis functions of the current driving situation class, and
- produce analysis units that carry out the analysis functions of the current driving situation class and that have not yet been provided by configuring configuration objects using the retrieved configuration parameter sets.
