This repository is beginner's guide to learn basic way of thinking and representative algorithms for Autonomous vehicle control. Explanation documents and sample codes about Motion model, Localization, Path Planning/Following and Vehicle Control are included in this repository. All of them are themed typical 4 wheels drive vehicle. I hope you can understand the above algorithms practically by reading documents and implementing codes.
This repository is composed of multiple directories as follow. Each directory has explanation documents, source codes and image files about component technologies for autonomous vehicle control system.
Studying the basic knowledge of Probability and Statistics.
Formulating vehicle's motion and observation by sensor and implement their simulation.
Understanding and implementing algorithm of Self-Localization and SLAM.
Understanding and implementing algorithm of Global/Local Path Planning.
Understanding and implementing algorithm of Vehicle Control and Path Tracking.
Design scenario in case of navigating autonomous vehicle from start to goal and implement algorithm to achieve the navigation.
Each directory have the following 3 sub directories.
Explanation documents are located in this sub directory. In each document, an theory of algorithm is explained in detail while mixing formulas and sample codes. You can understand the algorithm by reading explanations and implementing codes practically.
Source files of sample codes introduced in documents are located in this sub directory. These codes are written in Python. Usually, almost all of the codes for autonomous vehicle system are written in C/C++ but it is very difficult for beginner to understand and implement. So, all of the codes in this repository are written in Python because you can understand and implement a code more easily and more roughly than C/C++.
Image or gif files shown in documents are located in this sub direcotry. These files are created as output by each sample codes and you can confirm how an algorithm behave by seeing them.
Each sample codes are implemented by Python and some libraries.
The following Python version and libraries are required.
- Newer than Python 3.10.x
- numpy
- matplotlib
- pytest
- pytest-cov
You can run a code by following this procedure.
- Clone this repository.
$ git clone https://github.com/ShisatoYano/AutonomousVehicleControlBeginnersGuide.git- Install required libraries.
$ pip install -r requirements.txt- Execute python script in each directory.
$ python Localization/Sources/kalman_filter/linear_kalman_filter_1d.py- Add star to this repository if you like it.
Unit test codes of each sample program are located at "Test" directory. When you change an existing code or added an new code for contribution, please execute unit test suites to confirm the code works correctly following Testing standards.
