Abstract:Autonomous vehicles face big challenges guaranteeing provable safety during driving. One of the major problems is the uncertainty arising from the perception of the surrounding environment, especially due to occlusions. Recent approaches to tackle these uncertainties either minimize collision risk probabilistically or assume worst-case vehicles coming out of occluded areas. The former does not provide any safety guarantees, while the latter tends to produce overly conservative driving behavior. Human drivers, … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
