Comfort-Oriented Motion Planning for Automated Vehicles Using Deep Reinforcement Learning

Automated vehicles promise numerous advantages to their users. The proposed benefits could however be overshadowed by a rise in the susceptibility of passengers to motion sickness due to their engagement in non-driving tasks. Increasing attention is paid to designing vehicle motion to mitigate motion sickness. In this work, the deep...

Learning Interaction-Aware Guidance for Trajectory Optimization in Dense Traffic Scenarios

Autonomous navigation in dense traffic scenarios remains challenging for autonomous vehicles (AVs) because the intentions of other drivers are not directly observable and AVs have to deal with a wide range of driving behaviors. To maneuver through dense traffic, AVs must be able to reason how their actions affect others (interaction model)...
