This information is generally occluded environment information or physically undetectable social information.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/techxplore.com\/news\/2019-05-social-perception-scheme-behavior-autonomous.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><\/p>\n<div style=\"clear:both;\">Read more<\/div>\n<p><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>To navigate dynamic environments, autonomous vehicles (AVs) should be able to process all information available to them and use it to generate effective driving strategies.
