In automated driving, predicting and accommodating the uncertain future motion of other traffic participants is challenging, especially in unstructured environments in which the high-level intention of traffic participants is difficult to…
With autonomous vehicles (AVs), a major concern is the inability to give meaningful quantitative assurance of safety, to the extent required by society - e.g. that an AV must be at least as safe as a good human driver - before that AV is in…
Autonomous driving is a multi-agent setting where the host vehicle must apply sophisticated negotiation skills with other road users when overtaking, giving way, merging, taking left and right turns and while pushing ahead in unstructured…
