Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to the technical field of autonomous driving, and in particular to methods for updating an autonomous driving system, autonomous driving systems, and on-board apparatuses. In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the autonomous driving system, in a manual driving mode, senses the surrounding environment of a vehicle, performs vehicle positioning, and plans a path for autonomous driving for the vehicle. However, the autonomous driving system does not issue an instruction to control the driving of the vehicle. Instead, it compares the path with a path along which a driver drives the vehicle in the manual driving mode to update a planning and control algorithm of the autonomous driving system. As such, the updated autonomous driving system better caters to the driving habits of the driver and improves the driving experience for the driver without compromising the reliability of planning and decision-making of autonomous driving.

The present application is a national phase application of International Application No. PCT/CN2019/088822, filed on May 28, 2019, which claims the priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 201910207290.X entitled “METHODS FOR UPDATING AUTONOMOUS DRIVING SYSTEM, AUTONOMOUS DRIVING SYSTEMS, AND ON-BOARD APPARATUSES,” filed at China Patent Office on Mar. 19, 2019, each of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to the technical field of autonomous driving, and in particular to methods for updating an autonomous driving system, autonomous driving systems, and on-board apparatuses.
Existing autonomous vehicles provide a variety of vehicle driving modes, such as a manual driving mode, an assisted driving mode, and an autonomous driving mode. The manual driving mode corresponds to Level 0 autonomy. The assisted driving mode corresponds to Level 1 autonomy. The autonomous driving mode corresponds to Level 2 to Level 5 autonomy. The autonomous driving mode is a mode in which an autonomous driving system of an autonomous vehicle conducts planning and control for autonomous driving of the autonomous vehicle. In the manual driving mode, the autonomous driving system is in an inactive state and does not operate. In the autonomous driving mode, the autonomous driving system is in an active state.
In order to illustrate more clearly embodiments of the present disclosure, the drawings used in description of the embodiments will be briefly described below. Obviously, the drawings in the following description only describe some embodiments of the present disclosure. For those of ordinary skill in the art, other drawings can be derived on the basis of these drawings without any inventive effort.
FIG. 1 is a diagram of a general architecture of an autonomous vehicle in accordance with an embodiment of the present disclosure.
FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of an on-board apparatus in accordance with an embodiment of the present disclosure.
In order to better understand the above objects, features and advantages of the present disclosure, the present disclosure will be further described in detail with reference to the drawings and embodiments. It can be understood that the embodiments described herein are only some of but not all embodiments of the present disclosure. The particular embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present disclosure and are not intended to limit the present disclosure. All other embodiments derived by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the described embodiments of the present disclosure fall within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.
It should be noted that the relative terms herein, such as “first” and “second”, are used only to distinguish one entity or operation from another entity or operation, without necessarily requiring or implying any such actual relationship or sequence between these entities or operations.
FIG. 1 is a diagram of a general architecture of an autonomous vehicle in accordance with an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 1, data collected by a first sensor group may include but are not limited to data of the external environment and position data of the vehicle. As an example, the first sensor group may include but is not limited to at least one of a camera, a lidar, a millimeter wave radar, a global positioning system (GPS), and an inertial measurement unit (IMU). The autonomous driving system can acquire the data of the first sensor group.
