2. 1. Safe, human-like, decision-making for autonomous driving

   Author : Dapeng Liu; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; human-like behaviors.; imitation learning; Autonomous driving; reinforcement learning; decision making; safety;

   Abstract : Autonomous driving technology can significantly improve transportation by saving lives and social costs and increasing traffic efficiency and availability. Decision-making is a critical component of driving ability. Complex traffic environments and interactions between road users bring about many challenges in decision-making. READ MORE

4. 2. Evaluation of Road Equipment with Emphasis on Condition Assessment

   Author : Sven-Olof Lundkvist; Ulf Isacsson; Rolf Magnusson; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Road equipment; Condition assessment; State-of-the-art; Mobile measurement; Road marking; Road sign; Post delineator; Traffic light; Street lighting; Civil engineering and architecture; Samhällsbyggnadsteknik och arkitektur;

   Abstract : This doctoral thesis deals primarily with condition assessment of road equipment. The road equipment concept is defined by five main groups, road lighting, fences and barriers, vertical signs, horizontal signs and traffic signals, respectively. READ MORE

5. 3. Filtering and modelling for automotive safety systems

   Author : Fredrik Sandblom; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; decision-making; automotive safety; sensor data fusion; motion models; radar sensor models; filtering theory; moment estimation;

   Abstract : This thesis makes five important contributions to the development of an automotive safety system: filtering algorithms, three modelling frameworks concerning the usage of radar detections in tracking, vehicle motion, and decision-making for intervention decisions, and finally the implementation architecture.In the filtering context, we have developed a new sigma-point method for estimating the moments of a transformed Gaussian random variable.

6. 4. New methods for improving winter road maintenence

   Author : Mats Riehm; Per-Erik Jansson; Torbjörn Gustavsson; Klas Hansson; Meelis Mölder; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Winter road maintenance; Sensors; Infrared thermometry; Energy efficiency; De-icing salt; Other civil engineering and architecture; Övrig samhällsbyggnadsteknik och arkitektur;

   Abstract : Winter road maintenance activities are crucial for maintaining the accessibility and traffic safety of the road network during winters. Common winter road maintenance activities include plowing and the use of de-icing agents (e.g. NaCl) to avoid freezing. READ MORE

7. 5. Assessment of Telematic Systems for Road Freight Transport

   Author : Gideon Mbiydzenyuy; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Transportation; telematics; architectures; analysis; optimization; clustering; net present value;

   Abstract : The focus of this thesis is the assessment of telematic systems for road freight transport from a planning perspective. The aim is to support strategic decisions related to architectural choices for such systems, with the possibility to achieve synergies by supporting multiple telematic services. READ MORE
