As automated vehicles (AVs) become increasingly popular, the question arises as to how cyclists will interact with such vehicles. This study investigated (1) whether cyclists spontaneously notice if a vehicle is driverless, (2) how well they perform a driver-detection task when e ...
Recognizing and understanding implicit driving cues across diverse cultures is imperative for fostering safe and efficient global transportation systems, particularly when training new immigrants holding driving licenses from culturally disparate countries. Additionally, it is es ...
This paper investigates the motion control of automated vehicles for both lane-changing and lane-keeping maneuvers. This research is critical because lane keeping and lane changing, which need to be integrated into a unified control system, are still two fundamental control probl ...
Detecting abnormal driving behavior is critical for road traffic safety and the evaluation of drivers’ behavior. With the advancement of machine learning (ML) algorithms and the accumulation of naturalistic driving data, many ML models have been adopted for abnormal driving behav ...
Background
The steady development of automated vehicles (AVs) promises significant benefits in terms of traffic safety and efficiency. However, the transition to fully AVs and their deployment on the road will be gradual, leading to a phase of mixed-traffic conditions where A ...
The burgeoning navigation services using digital maps provide great convenience to drivers. Nevertheless, the presence of anomalies in lane-rendering map images occasionally introduces potential hazards, as such anomalies can mislead human drivers and consequently contribute to u ...
The burgeoning navigation services using digital maps provide great convenience to drivers. However, there are sometimes anomalies in the lane rendering map images, which might mislead human drivers and result in unsafe driving. To accurately and effectively detect the anomalies, ...
Automated vehicles (AVs) may require the implementation of an external human-machine interface (eHMI) to communicate their intentions to human-driven vehicles. The optimal placement of the eHMI, either on the AV itself or as part of the road infrastructure, remains undetermined. ...

Towards Developing Socially Compliant Automated Vehicles

State of the Art, Experts Expectations, and A Conceptual Framework

Automated Vehicles (AVs) hold promise for revolutionizing transportation by improving road safety, traffic efficiency, and overall mobility. Despite the steady advancement in high-level AVs in recent years, the transition to full automation entails a period of mixed traffic, wher ...
Traffic scenarios in roundabouts pose substantial complexity for automated driving. Manually mapping all possible scenarios into a state space is labor-intensive and challenging. Deep reinforcement learning (DRL) with its ability to learn from interacting with the environment eme ...

Design of the Reverse Logistics System for Medical Waste Recycling Part I

System Architecture and Disposal Site Selection Algorithm

With social progress and the development of modern medical technology, the amount of medical waste generated is increasing dramatically. The problem of medical waste recycling and treatment has gradually drawn concerns from the whole society. The sudden outbreak of the COVID-19 e ...
The gradual deployment of automated vehicles (AVs) results in mixed traffic where AVs will interact with human-driven vehicles (HDVs). Thus, social-aware motion planning and control while considering interactions with HDVs on the road is critical for AVs' deployment and safe driv ...
