AUTOMATIC PARKING METHOD AND VEHICLE

The embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method for automatic parking and a vehicle. The method includes: determining node distribution information for a to-be-parked area during the automatic parking, where the node distribution information includes a plurality of nodes through which a vehicle is capable of passing; determining an intermediate node based on the node distribution information, and obtaining a plurality of neighboring nodes by searching for neighboring nodes based on the intermediate node; determining cost information of candidate routes corresponding to the plurality of neighboring nodes respectively, where the candidate routes are each a route from a starting node to the intermediate node via a neighboring node; and determining a target neighboring node based on the cost information, and performing the automatic parking in accordance with the target neighboring node. Through the embodiments of the present disclosure, an automatic parking route can be optimized to be suitable for applying in complex parking scenarios, and thus can have the general applicability.
