A Thermoelectric Energy Harvesting System Assisted by A Piezoelectric Transducer Achieving 10-mV Cold-Startup and 82.7% Peak Efficiency

This article presents a 10mV-startup-voltage thermoelectric energy harvesting system, assisted by a piezoelectric generator (PEG) as a cold starter. It exploits the fact that when a thermoelectric energy harvesting system is implemented in a place where kinetic energy is also present, the PEG starter can provide a clock signal to start the...

Continual driver behaviour learning for connected vehicles and intelligent transportation systems: Framework, survey and challenges

Modelling, predicting and analysing driver behaviours are essential to advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and the comprehensive understanding of complex driving scenarios. Recently, with the development of deep learning (DL), numerous driver behaviour learning (DBL) methods have been proposed and applied in connected vehicles (CV) and...

Fusion of Gaze and Scene Information for Driving Behaviour Recognition: A Graph-Neural-Network- Based Framework

Accurate recognition of driver behaviours is the basis for a reliable driver assistance system. This paper proposes a novel fusion framework for driver behaviour recognition that utilises the traffic scene and driver gaze information. The proposed framework is based on the graph neural network (GNN) and contains three modules, namely, the...

An Ensemble Learning Framework for Vehicle Trajectory Prediction in Interactive Scenarios

Precisely modeling interactions and accurately predicting trajectories of surrounding vehicles are essential to the decision-making and path-planning of intelligent vehicles. This paper proposes a novel framework based on ensemble learning to improve the performance of trajectory predictions in interactive scenarios. The framework is termed...
