Intelligent Vehicle and Transportation Systems

- Special Session on IJCNN 2024


Special Session Objectives and Topics

The research and development of intelligent vehicles and transportation systems are rapidly growing worldwide. Intelligent transportation systems are making transformative changes in all aspects of surface transportation based on vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V), vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) connectivity, and automated driving (AV). With the support of advanced equipment, a host of intelligent devices in cars have made various functions in practice, such as airbag control, unwelcome intrusion detection, collision warning and avoidance, power management and navigation, driver alertness monitoring, etc. Among those functions, the neural network plays a critical role in building all types and levels of intelligence in vehicle and transportation systems. The objective of this special session is to provide a forum for researchers and practitioners to present advanced research in neural network models with a focus on innovative applications for intelligent vehicle and transportation systems.

This session seeks contributions on the latest developments and emerging research in all aspects of intelligent vehicle and transportation systems. Specific topics include, but are not limited to:

• Advanced transportation information and communication systems • Advanced Transportation Management
• Air, Road, and Rail Traffic Management • Automated driving and driverless car
• Cloud computing and big data in transportation and vehicle systems • Collision detection and avoidance
• Connected vehicles of the future • Driver assistance and automation systems
• Reinforcement learning, neural dynamics and adaptive control in vehicle systems • Driver state detection and monitoring
• Learning and adaptive Control • Machine learning algorithm for multi-modal intelligent transport systems and services
• Object recognitions such as pedestrian detection, traffic sign detection and recognition • Personalized driver and traveler support systems
• Pervasive and ubiquitous computing in logistics • Machine learning algorithm for driving route prediction and optimum path planning
• Simulation and forecasting models • Spatio-temporal traffic pattern recognition
• Trip modeling and driver speed prediction • Vehicle communications and connectivity
• Machine learning algorithm for vehicle energy management and optimization in hybrid vehicles • Vehicle fault diagnostics and health monitoring
