Abstract
In response to perceiving a moving object, one or more possible object paths of the moving object are determined based on the prior movement predictions of the moving object, for example, using a machine-learning model, which may be created based on a large amount of driving statistics of different vehicles. For each of the possible object paths, a set of trajectory candidates is generated based on a set of predetermined accelerations. Each of the trajectory candidates corresponds to one of the predetermined accelerations. A trajectory cost is calculated for each of the trajectory candidates using a predetermined cost function. One of the trajectory candidates having the lowest trajectory cost amongst the trajectory candidates is selected. An ADV path is planned to navigate the ADV to avoid collision with the moving object based on the lowest costs of the possible object paths of the moving object.
