This book was released on 2011 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les études développées dans ce projet doctoral ont concerné deux problématiques actuelles dans le domaine des systèmes robotiques pour la mobilité terrestre: premièrement, le problème associé à la navigation autonome et (semi)-autonome des véhicules terrestres dans un environnement inconnu ou partiellement connu. Cela constitue un enjeu qui prend de l'importance sur plusieurs fronts, notamment dans le domaine militaire. Récemment, l'agence DARPA1 aux États-Unis a soutenu plusieurs challenges sur cette problématique robotique; deuxièmement, le développement de systèmes d'assistance à la conduite basés sur la vision par ordinateur. Les acteurs de l'industrie automobile s'intéressent de plus en plus au développement de tels systèmes afin de rendre leurs produits plus sûrs et plus confortables à toutes conditions climatiques ou de terrain. De plus, grâce à l'électronique embarquée et à l’utilisation des systèmes visuels, une interaction avec l'environnement est possible, rendant les routes et les villes plus sûres pour les conducteurs et les piétons. 1) Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA): est une agence du département de la Défense des États- Unis chargée de la recherche et développement des nouvelles technologies destinées à un usage militaire. 2) L'objectif principal de ce projet doctoral a été le développement de méthodologies qui permettent à des systèmes mobiles robotisés de naviguer de manière autonome dans un environnement inconnu ou partiellement connu, basées sur la perception visuelle fournie par un système de vision monoculaire embarqué. Un véhicule robotisé qui doit effectuer des tâches précises dans un environnement inconnu, doit avoir la faculté de percevoir son environnement proche et avoir un degré minimum d'interaction avec celui-ci. Nous avons proposé un système de vision embarquée préliminaire, où le temps de traitement de l'information (point critique dans des systèmes de vision utilisés en temps-réel) est optimisé par une méthode d'identification et de rejet d'informations redondantes. Suite à ces résultats, on a proposé une étude innovante par rapport à l ́état de l ́art en ce qui concerne la gestion énergétique du système de vision embarqué, également pour le calcul du temps de collision à partir d'images monoculaires. Ainsi, nous proposons le développement des travaux en étudiant une méthodologie robuste et efficace (utile en temps-réel) pour la détection de la route et l'extraction de primitives d'intérêts appliquée à la navigation autonome des véhicules terrestres. Nous présentons des résultats dans un environnement réel, dynamique et inconnu. Afin d'évaluer la performance de l'algorithme proposé, nous avons utilisé un banc d’essai urbain et réel. Pour la détection de la route et afin d'éviter les obstacles, les résultats sont présents en utilisant un véhicule réel afin d'évaluer la performance de l'algorithme dans un déplacement autonome.
Download or read book A Simple Visual Based System Applied to Safe Navigation of Vehicles written by Arthur de Miranda Neto and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2013 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This manuscript addresses the problem of obstacle avoidance for semi- and autonomous terrestrial platforms in dynamic and unknown environments. Based on monocular vision, it proposes a set of tools that continuously monitors the way forward, proving appropriate road information in real time. Taking into account the temporal coherence between consecutive frames, a new Dynamic Power Management methodology is proposed and applied to a robotic visual machine perception, which included a new environment observer method to optimize energy consumption used by a visual machine. A remarkable characteristic of these methodologies is its independence of the image acquiring system and of the robot itself. This real-time perception system has been evaluated from different test-banks and also from real data obtained by two intelligent platforms. In semi-autonomous tasks, tests were conducted at speeds above 100 Km/h. Autonomous displacements were also carried out successfully.
Download or read book Vision based Vehicle Guidance written by Ichiro Masaki and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 355 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a growing social interest in developing vision-based vehicle guidance systems for improving traffic safety and efficiency and the environment. Ex amples of vision-based vehicle guidance systems include collision warning systems, steering control systems for tracking painted lane marks, and speed control systems for preventing rear-end collisions. Like other guidance systems for aircraft and trains, these systems are ex pected to increase traffic safety significantly. For example, safety improve ments of aircraft landing processes after the introduction of automatic guidance systems have been reported to be 100 times better than prior to installment. Although the safety of human lives is beyond price, the cost for automatic guidance could be compensated by decreased insurance costs. It is becoming more important to increase traffic safety by decreasing the human driver's load in our society, especially with an increasing population of senior people who continue to drive. The second potential social benefit is the improvement of traffic efficiency by decreasing the spacing between vehicles without sacrificing safety. It is reported, for example, that four times the efficiency is expected if the spacing between cars is controlled automatically at 90 cm with a speed of 100 kmjh compared to today's typical manual driving. Although there are a lot of tech nical, psychological, and social issues to be solved before realizing the high density jhigh-speed traffic systems described here, highly efficient highways are becoming more important because of increasing traffic congestion.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main topic of this book is the recent development of on-board advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS), which we can already tell will eventually contribute to the autonomous and connected vehicles of tomorrow. With the development of automated mobility, it becomes necessary to design a series of modules which, from the data produced by on-board or remote information sources, will enable the construction of a completely automated driving system. These modules are perception, decision and action. State-of-the-art AI techniques and their potential applications in the field of autonomous vehicles are described. Perception systems, focusing on visual sensors, the decision module and the prototyping, testing and evaluation of ADAS systems are all presented for effective implementation on autonomous and connected vehicles. This book also addresses cooperative systems, such as pedestrian detection, as well as the legal issues in the use of autonomous vehicles in open environments.

Download or read book Explainable Artificial Intelligence for Intelligent Transportation Systems written by Amina Adadi and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2023-10-20 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) are set to revolutionize all industries, and the Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) field is no exception. While ML, especially deep learning models, achieve great performance in terms of accuracy, the outcomes provided are not amenable to human scrutiny and can hardly be explained. This can be very problematic, especially for systems of a safety-critical nature such as transportation systems. Explainable AI (XAI) methods have been proposed to tackle this issue by producing human interpretable representations of machine learning models while maintaining performance. These methods hold the potential to increase public acceptance and trust in AI-based ITS. FEATURES: Provides the necessary background for newcomers to the field (both academics and interested practitioners) Presents a timely snapshot of explainable and interpretable models in ITS applications Discusses ethical, societal, and legal implications of adopting XAI in the context of ITS Identifies future research directions and open problems
