The reliable detection of speed of moving vehicles is considered key to traffic law enforcement in most countries, and is seen by many as an important tool to reduce the number of traffic accidents and fatalities. Many automatic systems and…

To build a smarter and safer city, a secure, efficient, and sustainable transportation system is a key requirement. The autonomous driving system (ADS) plays an important role in the development of smart transportation and is considered one…

The need to accurately estimate the speed of road vehicles is becoming increasingly important for at least two main reasons. First, the number of speed cameras installed worldwide has been growing in recent years, as the introduction and…

Earlier work has established a decentralized optimal control framework for coordinating online a continuous flow of connected automated vehicles (CAVs) entering a control zone and crossing two adjacent intersections in an urban area. A…

We consider the problem of planning a collision-free path of a robot in the presence of risk zones. The robot is allowed to travel in these zones but is penalized in a super-linear fashion for consecutive accumulative time spent there. We…

Game-theoretic approaches are envisioned to bring human-like reasoning skills and decision-making processes for autonomous vehicles (AVs). However, challenges including game complexity and incomplete information still remain to be addressed…

In this paper, we propose an integrated dynamical model of Connected and Automated Vehicles (CAVs) which incorporates CAV technologies and a microscopic car-following model to improve safety, efficiency and convenience. We rigorously…

On-road obstacle detection is an important field of research that falls in the scope of intelligent transportation infrastructure systems. The use of vision-based approaches results in an accurate and cost-effective solution to such…

Recently there have been a lot of interests in introducing UAVs for a wide range of applications, making ensuring safety of multi-vehicle systems a highly crucial problem. Hamilton-Jacobi (HJ) reachability is a promising tool for analyzing…

Lane-free traffic (LFT) is a new traffic system that relies on connected and automated vehicles (CAV) to increase road capacity and utilization by removing traditional lane markings using coordinated maneuvering of CAVs in LFT strategies.…

This paper addresses the traffic management problem for autonomous vehicles at intersections without traffic signals. In the current system, a road junction has no traffic signals when the traffic volume is low to medium. Installing…

In order to increase the number of situations in which an intelligent vehicle can operate without human intervention, lateral control is required to accurately guide it in a reference trajectory regardless of the shape of the road or the…

By using a simplified two-lane cellular automata model for traffic flow, we simulate an evacuation of an emergency vehicle (EV) in highways. We introduce the pull over strategy to facilitate the evacuation of the EV in highways. We…

An open problem for autonomous driving is how to validate the safety of an autonomous vehicle in simulation. Automated testing procedures can find failures of an autonomous system but these failures may be difficult to interpret due to…

Navigating narrow roads with oncoming vehicles is a significant challenge that has garnered considerable public interest. These scenarios often involve sections that cannot accommodate two moving vehicles simultaneously due to the presence…

In this paper, we present an on-board vision-based approach for avoidance of moving obstacles in dynamic environments. Our approach relies on an efficient obstacle detection and tracking algorithm based on depth image pairs, which provides…

Currently, we are in an environment where the fraction of automated vehicles is negligibly small. We anticipate that this fraction will increase in coming decades before if ever, we have a fully automated transportation system. Motivated by…

This paper presents a new collision avoidance procedure for unmanned aerial vehicles in the presence of static and moving obstacles. The proposed procedure is based on a new form of local parametrized guidance vector fields, called…

Road damage is an inconvenience and a safety hazard, severely affecting vehicle condition, driving comfort, and traffic safety. The traditional manual visual road inspection process is pricey, dangerous, exhausting, and cumbersome. Also,…

Achieving zero-collision mobility remains a key objective for intelligent vehicle systems, which requires understanding driver risk perception-a complex cognitive process shaped by voluntary response of the driver to external stimuli and…
