System and method for determining a vehicle route
First Claim
1. A method for determining a route for a vehicle comprising:
- by at least one controller,receiving steering wheel, brake pedal or accelerator pedal input indicative of a driver'"'"'s dynamic control of the vehicle,determining the driver'"'"'s driving style based on a similarity between the input and sets of predetermined values each representing a different driving style,selecting values of parameters representing the driver'"'"'s anticipated dynamic control of the vehicle based on the driving style,identifying a plurality of candidate routes between an origin and destination,partitioning each of the candidate routes into a set of predefined route patterns,determining an energy usage associated with each of the candidate routes based on the selected values and the set of predefined route patterns defining the candidate route,identifying the candidate route having the minimum energy usage, andproviding output describing the route having the minimum energy usage.

Abstract
A method for determining a route for a vehicle includes receiving input indicative of a driver'"'"'s dynamic control of the vehicle, determining the driver'"'"'s driving style based on the input, and selecting values of parameters representing the driver'"'"'s anticipated dynamic control of the vehicle based on the driving style. The method also includes identifying a plurality of candidate routes between an origin and destination, partitioning each of the candidate routes into a set of predefined route patterns, and determining an energy usage associated with each of the candidate routes based on the selected values and the set of predefined route patterns defining the candidate route. The method further includes identifying the candidate route having the minimum energy usage and providing output describing the route having the minimum energy usage.
