The Hybrid Extended Bicycle: A Simple Model for High Dynamic Vehicle Trajectory Planning
While highly automated driving relies most of the time on a smooth driving assumption, the possibility of a vehicle performing harsh maneuvers with high dynamic driving to face unexpected events is very likely. The modeling of the behavior of the vehicle in these events is crucial to proper planning and controlling; the used model should present accurate and computationally efficient properties. In this article, we propose an LSTM-based hybrid extended bicycle model able to present an accurate description of the state of the vehicle for both normal and aggressive situations. The introduced model is used in an MPPI framework for planning trajectories in high-dynamic scenarios where other simple models fail.
