This situation poses a serious threat to the security of autonomous vehicles, especially when front vehicle sideslip occurs. To address this problem, a decision-making approach can be used to promote the emergency obstacle avoidance capability of autonomous vehicles. First, the front sideslip vehicle trajectory was predicted by the kinematic models Constant Acceleration (CA), Constant Turn Rate and Velocity (CTRV), and Constant Turn Rate and Acceleration (CTRA) based on the front vehicle sideslip identification results. The CTRA prediction approach is chosen by comparing the prediction errors of the three models. To enhance the obstacle avoidance ability of autonomous vehicles, a novel trajectory planning method based on a driving characteristic vector is proposed. Model prediction control (MPC) is used to track the planned trajectory. Finally, the cosimulation platform of Simulink and Carsim was built. The simulation results show that autonomous vehicles can avoid collisions with front sideslip vehicles through the proposed approach, and the proposed trajectory planning approach has better obstacle avoidance ability than does the traditional approach.","PeriodicalId":100793,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Intelligent and Connected Vehicles","volume":"7 4","pages":"248-257"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10823098","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142918489","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the uniqueness of an empirically estimated MFD cannot be guaranteed due to the problem of link selection. Instationarity and varying flow patterns make it difficult to select link flows that are representative of the traffic state in the whole network. This study developed a new method for selecting links equipped with loop detectors that represent a particular traffic state of a road network. The method utilizes a metric of heterogeneity characterizing the role of a network link over the time of day. The dispersion metric indicates the heterogeneity in traffic states and the dynamic role of each time interval. It ranks links based on the heterogeneity-weighted saturation level, with the highest-rank links representing the most homogeneous subset of sample links. This study compared classical and proposed dynamic weights using loop detector data from Zurich and London and a simulated network. Sample links were selected based on different saturation levels, and the saturation level was associated with the heterogeneity level to identify the links creating heterogeneity in the road network.","PeriodicalId":100793,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Intelligent and Connected Vehicles","volume":"7 4","pages":"266-278"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10823100","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142918520","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In fact, the widespread use of GPS-enabled smartphones and the mobile internet has increased the availability and size of such data. With the increase in GPS data coverage and availability, some research has expanded its use to estimate state-wide vehicle-miles travelled, to classify driving maneuvers for road safety assessment, or to estimate environmental performance indicators, such as vehicular fuel consumption and pollution emissions. In computer science, research has used GPS data to infer road network maps. Although the inferred maps provide a correct topology and connectivity, they lack the essential details to be used for transport modeling. Therefore, this work proposes a method to extract network-wide road direction and turning movement rules. In addition, building a road network model under the widely used macroscopic transport modeling software serves as a proof of concept. A sensitivity analysis was carried out to determine the output quality and recommend future improvements. Road segment geometry and directionality were extracted accurately (case study accuracy of 95\u0000<sup>%</sup>\u0000); however, turning movement rules can be extracted more accurately using a larger GPS vehicle trajectory sample (case study accuracy of 68%).","PeriodicalId":100793,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Intelligent and Connected Vehicles","volume":"7 4","pages":"258-265"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10823099","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142918488","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study presents a dynamic control method for a shared lane that prioritizes right-turn vehicles at the beginning of the cycle and subsequently allows through traffic to queue in the shared lane for saturated discharge. The traffic wave model is employed to reveal the dynamics of the traffic flow under this control and to derive the relationships among major traffic parameters. Constrained by the major relationship, a linear programming approach to minimize the total queue length is developed to determine the proper values of control parameters, including the shared area length, subordinate signal time lag, and shared or exclusive duration. A sensitivity analysis of the control parameters for different arrival rates and flow ratios is performed. Comparisons are conducted among the dynamic shared lane, the fixed exclusive lane, and the fixed shared lane. The results show that the dynamic control method results in a lower delay for both through and total traffic.","PeriodicalId":100793,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Intelligent and Connected Vehicles","volume":"7 3","pages":"219-228"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10695162","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142324273","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

On-demand autonomous mobility is a promising transportation mode, but further research is necessary to evaluate its various aspects and implications prior to widespread adoption. Thus, this study investigates the effects of integrating automation and on-demand mobility by analyzing the effects on the environment, public transportation, land use, vehicle ownership, and public acceptance. A comprehensive literature review was performed, and through a detailed review of 210 articles, the impacts of each of these categories were determined and classified according to their causes, and the number of publications with which they were cited in the literature was determined. The review showed that SAVs can either positively or negatively impact categories and have the potential to minimize mobility obstacles and transportation inequity if legislators use technology to develop a better transportation system by initiating effective policies that govern the four impacted areas. A list of 22 policy recommendations designed to avoid the negative consequences of SAVs by maximizing the benefits of the technology while limiting the associated risks was also identified. The findings of this review will be beneficial to AV manufacturers, transportation professionals, and especially policymakers, who play an integral role in shaping how society benefits from SAV technology.","PeriodicalId":100793,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Intelligent and Connected Vehicles","volume":"7 3","pages":"177-189"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10695164","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142324349","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study addresses research questions insufficiently covered in the literature, exploring curriculum learning (CL), agent generalization (knowledge transfer), computation distribution (CPU vs. GPU), and mapless navigation. CL proved necessary for the garage scenario and beneficial for obstacle avoidance. It involved adjustments at different stages, including terminal conditions, environment complexity, and reward function hyperparameters, guided by their evolution in multiple training attempts. Fine-tuning the simulation tick and decision period parameters was crucial for effective training. The abstraction of high-level concepts (e.g., obstacle avoidance) necessitates training the agent in sufficiently complex environments in terms of the number of obstacles. While blogs and forums discuss training machine learning models in Unity, a lack of scientific articles on DRL agents for AD persists. However, since agent development requires considerable training time and difficult procedures, there is a growing need to support such research through scientific means.

While the UN R157 Regulation evaluates automated lane-keeping system (ALKS) performance baselines through safe collision plots (SCPs) in various scenario clusters, quantifying the specific ALKS safety efficiency remains challenging. We propose a spectrum quantification approach to evaluate the safety efficiency of autonomous vehicles in cut-in scenarios. First, we collected speed-distance data under different cut-in scenarios and extracted essential spectral features to indicate the vehicle motion parameters during the cut-in process. Second, by utilizing Fourier analysis, a spectral analysis model was built to quantify and analyze the vehicle motion characteristics, providing insights into scenario safety. Finally, we created approximate analytical equations for the normalized disturbance frequencies in the nonlinear response scenarios of autonomous driving systems by combining the SCP with a frequency spectrum analysis model. The results showed that the normalized disturbance frequency in the cut-in scenario was approximately 0.2. When the relative longitudinal distance and speed of the vehicle are the same, if the cut-in speed of the cut-in vehicle is larger, the normalized disturbance frequency is higher, indicating that the cut-in process of the autonomous vehicle is more dangerous and may trigger a collision.","PeriodicalId":100793,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Intelligent and Connected Vehicles","volume":"7 3","pages":"205-218"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10695163","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142323054","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Urban intersections are one of the primary sources of traffic congestion, and these bottlenecks have a negative impact not only on traffic efficacy but also on the surrounding road traffic in the region. To alleviate urban traffic congestion, cyber-physical systems have been widely implemented in the transportation industry, allowing for the perception, analysis, calculation, and dispatching of urban traffic flow, as well as making urban transportation safe, efficient, and quick. As the system scale and functions increase, system design has become increasingly complex, necessitating a deeper comprehension of the system's structure and interaction relationships to construct a stable and reliable system. Therefore, this study proposes a method for designing cyber-physical systems for urban traffic intersections based on Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE). This method models and analyses exhaustively the system's requirements, functions, and logical architecture using System Modeling Language (SysML). After the architecture design has been completed, an architecture verification and optimization method based on Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA) for urban road intersection cyber-physical systems is utilized to analyze the architecture's reliability by analyzing the failure modes of activities and to optimize the system architecture to improve the design's efficiency and reliability.","PeriodicalId":100793,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Intelligent and Connected Vehicles","volume":"7 3","pages":"190-204"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10695165","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142323055","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
