DETERMINING A STATE OF A VEHICLE ON A ROAD

The present invention relates to determination of a state of a vehicle on a road portion. The vehicle includes an Automated Driving System (ADS) feature. At first, map data associated with the road portion, positioning data indicating a pose of the vehicle on the road, and sensor data of the vehicle are obtained. Then, a plurality of filters for the road portion are initialized. Further, one or more sensor data point(s) in the obtained sensor data is associated to a corresponding map-element of the obtained map data to determine one or more normalized similarity score(s). Now, based on the determined one or more normalized similarity score(s), one or more multivariate time-series data are also determined and provided as input to a trained machine-learning algorithm. Then, one of the initialized filters is selected by the machine learning algorithm to indicate a current state of the vehicle on the road portion.
