Abstract

The present invention relates to methods and arrangements for assigning a vehicle to a lane in a road for a vehicle. The proposed solution obtains an estimated pose for the vehicle, projects the pose to nearby lanes, obtains uncertainty values for the pose and lanes, creates a distribution by combining the pose and lane uncertainties, creates a momentary likelihood for the vehicle being in each lane, adjusts the momentary likelihoods with prior values obtained in a previous iteration, and determines the most likely lane.
