Abstract:
Systems and methods are provided for controlling an autonomous vehicle (AV). A map generator module processes sensor data to generate a world representation of a particular driving scenario (PDS). A scene understanding module (SUM) processes navigation route data, position information and a feature map to define an autonomous driving task (ADT), and decomposes the ADT into a sequence of sub-tasks. The SUM selects a particular combination of sensorimotor primitive modules (SPMs) to be enabled and executed for the PDS. Each one of the SPMs addresses a sub-task in the sequence. A primitive processor module executes the particular combination of the SPMs such that each generates a vehicle trajectory and speed (VTS) profile. A selected one of the VTS profiles is then processed to generate the control signals, which are then processed at a low-level controller to generate commands that control one or more of actuators of the AV

Claim (Index 20):
The controller for the autonomous vehicle according to  claim 15 , wherein the low-level controller is configured to process the control signals to generate commands that control one or more actuators of the autonomous vehicle in accordance with the control signals to schedule and execute one or more control actions to be performed to automatically control the autonomous vehicle to automate the autonomous driving task encountered in the particular driving scenario and achieve the selected one of vehicle trajectory and speed profiles, and\n wherein the actuators include one or more of a steering controller, a brake system, and a throttle system.
