Road Friction Estimation for Connected Vehicles using Supervised Machine Learning
In this paper, the problem of road friction prediction from a fleet of
connected vehicles is investigated. A framework is proposed to predict the road
friction level using both historical friction data from the connected cars and
data from weather stations, and comparative results from different methods are
presented. The problem is formulated as a classification task where the
available data is used to train three machine learning models including
logistic regression, support vector machine, and neural networks to predict the
friction class (slippery or non-slippery) in the future for specific road
segments. In addition to the friction values, which are measured by moving
vehicles, additional parameters such as humidity, temperature, and rainfall are
used to obtain a set of descriptive feature vectors as input to the
classification methods. The proposed prediction models are evaluated for
different prediction horizons (0 to 120 minutes in the future) where the
evaluation shows that the neural networks method leads to more stable results
in different conditions.Comment: Published at IV 201
A Comprehensive Survey of Deep Learning in Remote Sensing: Theories, Tools and Challenges for the Community
In recent years, deep learning (DL), a re-branding of neural networks (NNs),
has risen to the top in numerous areas, namely computer vision (CV), speech
recognition, natural language processing, etc. Whereas remote sensing (RS)
possesses a number of unique challenges, primarily related to sensors and
applications, inevitably RS draws from many of the same theories as CV; e.g.,
statistics, fusion, and machine learning, to name a few. This means that the RS
community should be aware of, if not at the leading edge of, of advancements
like DL. Herein, we provide the most comprehensive survey of state-of-the-art
RS DL research. We also review recent new developments in the DL field that can
be used in DL for RS. Namely, we focus on theories, tools and challenges for
the RS community. Specifically, we focus on unsolved challenges and
opportunities as it relates to (i) inadequate data sets, (ii)
human-understandable solutions for modelling physical phenomena, (iii) Big
Data, (iv) non-traditional heterogeneous data sources, (v) DL architectures and
learning algorithms for spectral, spatial and temporal data, (vi) transfer
learning, (vii) an improved theoretical understanding of DL systems, (viii)
high barriers to entry, and (ix) training and optimizing the DL.Comment: 64 pages, 411 references. To appear in Journal of Applied Remote
