Abstract

See full text

According to some embodiments, a system selects a number of polynomials representing a number of time segments of a time duration to complete the path trajectory. The system selects an objective function based on a number of cost functions to smooth speeds between the time segments. The system defines a set of constraints to the polynomials to at least ensure the polynomials are smoothly joined together. The system performs a quadratic programming (QP) optimization on the objective function in view of the set of constraints, such that a cost associated with the objective function reaches a minimum while the set of constraints are satisfied. The system generates a smooth speed for the time duration based on the optimized objective function to control the ADV autonomously.
