Abstract

A method and a system for predicting a near future path and an associated output control signal for a vehicle. Prediction sensor data, vehicle driving data, and road data are collected. An input control signal indicative of an intended driving action is received. The sensor data and the vehicle driving data are pre-processed to provide a set of object data comprising a time series of previous positions of a respective object relative the vehicle, a time series of the previous headings of the object, and a time series of previous velocities of the object. The object data, the road data, the vehicle driving data, the control signal, and the sensor data are processed in a deep neural network. Based on the processing in the deep neural network, a predicted path output and an output control signal are provided.
