Abstract

Methods, apparatus, systems, and articles of manufacture are disclosed herein that mitigate hard-braking events. An example apparatus includes a world generator to generate a deep learning model to identify and categorize an object in a proximity of a vehicle, a data analyzer to determine a danger level associated with the object, the danger level indicative of a likelihood of a collision between the vehicle and the object, a vehicle response determiner to determine, based on the danger level, a response of the vehicle to avoid a collision with the object, and an instruction generator to transmit instructions to a steering system or a braking system of the vehicle based on the determined vehicle response.
