Li, G. (author), Li, Zirui (author), Knoop, V.L. (author), van Lint, J.W.C. (author)Predicting the trajectories of road agents is fundamental for self-driving cars. Trajectory prediction contains many sources of uncertainty in data and modelling. A thorough understanding of this uncertainty is crucial in a safety-critical task like auto-piloting a vehicle. In practice, it is necessary to distinguish between the uncertainty...journal article 2024

Li, Wenyu (author), Chen, Wei (author), Jiang, Jing (author), Wang, Wenbo (author), Fan, Xuejun (author), Zhang, Kouchi (author), Fan, Jiajie (author)Thermal management has always played a significant role in power module design. Double-sided heat dissipation is more efficient at transferring heat than the traditional package. Although there are several thermal modeling approaches to power modules, the application of the numerical models, which are computationally fast and accurate, has...conference paper 2024
