Abstract
A system for controlling an autonomous vehicle includes a memory configured to store parameters of a g-g plot defining admissible space of values of longitudinal and lateral accelerations. The g-g plot parameters define a mapping between user driving preferences and constrained control of the autonomous vehicle. The g-g plot parameters include a maximum forward acceleration, a maximum backward acceleration, a maximum lateral acceleration and a shape parameter defining profile of curves connecting maximum values of forward, backward, and lateral accelerations. The system accepts a comfort level as a feedback from a passenger of the vehicle, determines a dominant parameter corresponding to the feedback, updates the dominant parameter of the g-g plot based on the comfort level indicated in the feedback, and controls the vehicle to maintain dynamics of the vehicle within the admissible space defined by the parameters of the updated g-g plot.
