Vehicle Safety and Automated Driving
Topic Information
Dear Colleagues,
Autonomous vehicle technology is continuing to advance, bringing significant benefits to humanity in terms of traffic congestion reduction, safety enhancements, stress-free travel, fuel cost savings, pollutant emission reduction, etc., and it is widely seen as the future of motorized mobility. This Topic is seeking high-quality original contributions, soliciting high-level technical papers addressing the main research challenges related to autonomous vehicles. Potential topics include but are not limited to:
- Sensing and control for autonomous vehicles;
- Mapping and localization for autonomous vehicles;
- Path planning for autonomous vehicles;
- Computer vision for autonomous vehicles;
- AI-based auto-driving;
- Sensor fusion in autonomous vehicles;
- 5G for autonomous vehicles;
- Risk management of autonomous vehicles;
- Automotive cybersecurity, liability, and privacy;
- Intelligent transportation systems;
- Human factors of automated driving;
- Driver behavior;
- Human–machine interface.
