Abstract
A processor-implemented method in a vehicle for performing automatic vehicle lateral control using a neural network for trajectory tracking is provided. The method includes receiving a desired vehicle trajectory; constructing, from the desired trajectory, desired waypoint data for a small number of desired waypoints at different look ahead distances in front of the center of gravity of the vehicle; and generating a steering angle command using a feedforward artificial neural network (ANN) as a function of vehicle speed and the desired waypoint data without modeling vehicle or tire dynamics. The vehicle steering actuator system provides steering control to cause vehicle steering to attempt to achieve the steering angle command.
