A systematic literature review on the relationship between autonomous vehicle technology and traffic-related mortality.

학위논문(석사) -- 서울대학교대학원 : 행정대학원 글로벌행정전공, 2023. 2. 최태현.The society is anticipated to gain a lot from Autonomous Vehicles (AV), such as improved traffic flow and a decrease in accidents. They heavily rely on improvements in various Artificial Intelligence (AI) processes and strategies. Though some researchers in this field believe AV is the key to enhancing safety, others believe AV creates new challenges when it comes to ensuring the security of these new technology/systems and applications. The article conducts a systematic literature review on the relationship between autonomous vehicle technology and traffic-related mortality. According to inclusion and exclusion criteria, articles from EBSCO, ProQuest, IEEE Explorer, Web of Science were chosen, and they were then sorted. The findings reveal that the most of these publications have been published in advanced transport-related journals. Future improvements in the automobile industry and the development of intelligent transportation systems could help reduce the number of fatal traffic accidents. Technologies for autonomous cars provide effective ways to enhance the driving experience and reduce the number of traffic accidents. A multitude of driving-related problems, such as crashes, traffic, energy usage, and environmental pollution, will be helped by autonomous driving technology. More research is needed for the significant majority of the studies that were assessed. They need to be expanded so that they can be tested in real-world or computer-simulated scenarios, in better and more realistic scenarios, with better and more data, and in experimental designs where the results of the proposed strategy are compared to those of industry standards and competing strategies. Therefore, additional study with improved methods is needed. Another major area that requires additional research is the moral and ethical choices made by AVs. Government, policy makers, manufacturers, and designers all need to do many actions in order to deploy autonomous vehicles on the road effectively. The government should develop laws, rules, and an action plan in particular. It is important to create more effective programs that might encourage the adoption of emerging technology in transportation systems, such as driverless vehicles. In this regard, user perception becomes essential since it may inform designers about current issues and observations made by people. The perceptions of autonomous car users in developing countries like Azerbaijan haven't been thoroughly studied up to this point. The manufacturer has to fix the system flaw and needs a good data set for efficient operation. In the not-too-distant future, the widespread use of highly automated vehicles (AVs) may open up intriguing new possibilities for resolving persistent issues in current safety-related research. Further research is required to better understand and quantify the significant policy implications of Avs, taking into consideration factors like penetration rate, public adoption, technological advancements, traffic patterns, and business models. It only needs to take into account peer-reviewed, full-text journal papers for the investigation, but it's clear that a larger database and more documents would provide more results and a more thorough analysis.자율주행차(AV)를 통해 교통 흐름이 개선되고 사고가 줄어드는 등 사회가 얻는 것이 많을 것으로 예상된다. 그들은 다양한 인공지능(AI) 프로세스와 전략의 개선에 크게 의존한다. 이 분야의 일부 연구자들은 AV가 안전성을 향상시키는 열쇠라고 믿지만, 다른 연구자들은 AV가 이러한 새로운 기술/시스템 및 애플리케이션의 보안을 보장하는 것과 관련하여 새로운 문제를 야기한다고 믿는다. 이 논문은 자율주행차 기술과 교통 관련 사망률 사이의 관계에 대한 체계적인 문헌 검토를 수행한다. 포함 및 제외 기준에 따라 EBSCO, ProQuest, IEEE Explorer 및 Web of Science의 기사를 선택하고 분류했다.연구 결과는 이러한 출판물의 대부분이 고급 운송 관련 저널에 게재되었음을 보여준다. 미래의 자동차 산업의 개선과 지능형 교통 시스템의 개발은 치명적인 교통 사고의 수를 줄이는 데 도움이 될 수 있다. 자율주행 자동차 기술은 운전 경험을 향상시키고 교통 사고의 수를 줄일 수 있는 효과적인 방법을 제공한다. 충돌, 교통, 에너지 사용, 환경 오염과 같은 수많은 운전 관련 문제들은 자율 주행 기술에 의해 도움을 받을 것이다. 평가된 대부분의 연구에 대해 더 많은 연구가 필요하다. 실제 또는 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션 시나리오, 더 좋고 현실적인 시나리오, 더 좋고 더 많은 데이터, 그리고 제안된 전략 결과가 산업 표준 및 경쟁 전략의 결과와 비교되는 실험 설계에서 테스트될 수 있도록 확장되어야 한다. 따라서 개선된 방법에 대한 추가 연구가 필요하다. 추가 연구가 필요한 또 다른 주요 분야는 AV의 도덕적, 윤리적 선택이다. 정부, 정책 입안자, 제조업체 및 설계자는 모두 자율 주행 차량을 효과적으로 도로에 배치하기 위해 많은 조치를 취해야 한다. 정부는 특히 법, 규칙, 실행 계획을 개발해야 한다. 운전자 없는 차량과 같은 운송 시스템에서 새로운 기술의 채택을 장려할 수 있는 보다 효과적인 프로그램을 만드는 것이 중요하다. 이와 관련하여, 설계자에게 현재 이슈와 사람에 의한 관찰을 알려줄 수 있기 때문에 사용자 인식이 필수적이 된다.제조업체는 시스템 결함을 수정해야 하며 효율적인 작동을 위해 좋은 데이터 세트가 필요하다. 멀지 않은 미래에, 고도로 자동화된 차량(AV)의 광범위한 사용은 현재의 안전 관련 연구에서 지속적인 문제를 해결하기 위한 흥미로운 새로운 가능성을 열어줄 수 있다. 보급률, 공공 채택, 기술 발전, 교통 패턴 및 비즈니스 모델과 같은 요소를 고려하여 Avs의 중요한 정책 영향을 더 잘 이해하고 정량화하기 위한 추가 연구가 필요하다. 조사를 위해 동료 검토를 거친 전문 저널 논문만 고려하면 되지만, 데이터베이스가 커지고 문서가 많아지면 더 많은 결과와 더 철저한 분석이 제공될 것이 분명하다.Abstract 3 Table of Contents 6 List of Tables 7 List of Figures 7 List of Appendix 7 CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION 8 1.1.

Automated Algorithmic Machine-to-Machine Negotiation for Lane Changes Performed by Driverless Vehicles at the Edge of the Internet of Things

This dissertation creates and examines algorithmic models for automated machine-to-machine negotiation in localized multi-agent systems at the edge of the Internet of Things. It provides an implementation of two such models for unsupervised resource allocation for the application domain of autonomous vehicle traffic as it pertains to lane changing and speed setting selection. The first part concerns negotiation via abstract argumentation. A general model for the arbitration of conflict based on abstract argumentation is outlined and then applied to a scenario where autonomous vehicles on a multi-lane highway use expert systems in consultation with private objectives to form arguments and use them to compete for lane positions. The conflict resolution component of the resulting argumentation framework is augmented with social voting to achieve a community supported conflict-free outcome. The presented model heralds a step toward independent negotiation through automated argumentation in distributed multi-agent systems. Many other cyber-physical environments embody stages for opposing positions that may benefit from this type of tool for collaboration. The second part deals with game-theoretic negotiation through mechanism design. It outlines a mechanism providing resource allocation for a fee and applies it to autonomous vehicle traffic. Vehicular agents apply for speed and lane assignments with sealed bids containing their private feasible action valuations determined within the context of their governing objective. A truth-inducing mechanism implementing an incentive-compatible strategyproof social choice functions achieves a socially optimal outcome. The model can be adapted to many application fields through the definition of a domain-appropriate operation to be used by the allocation function of the mechanism. Both presented prototypes conduct operations at the edge of the Internet of Things. They can be applied to agent networks in just about any domain where the sharing of resources is required. The social voting argumentation approach is a minimal but powerful tool facilitating the democratic process when a community makes decisions on the sharing or rationing of common-pool assets. The mechanism design model can create social welfare maximizing allocations for multiple or multidimensional resources

Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining for Shared Mobility and Connected and Automated Vehicle Applications

The rapid development of shared mobility and connected and automated vehicles (CAVs) has not only brought new intelligent transportation system (ITS) challenges with the new types of mobility, but also brought a huge opportunity to accelerate the connectivity and informatization of transportation systems, particularly when we consider all the new forms of data that is becoming available. The primary challenge is how to take advantage of the enormous amount of data to discover knowledge, build effective models, and develop impactful applications. With the theoretical and experimental progress being made over the last two decades, data mining and machine learning technologies have become key approaches for parsing data, understanding information, and making informed decisions, especially as the rise of deep learning algorithms bringing new levels of performance to the analysis of large datasets. The combination of data mining and ITS can greatly benefit research and advances in shared mobility and CAVs.This dissertation focuses on knowledge discovery and data mining for shared mobility and CAV applications. When considering big data associated with shared mobility operations and CAV research, data mining techniques can be customized with transportation knowledge to initially parse the data. Then machine learning methods can be used to model the parsed data to elicit hidden knowledge. Finally, the discovered knowledge and extracted information can help in the development of effective shared mobility and CAV applications to achieve the goals of a safer, faster, and more eco-friendly transportation systems.In this dissertation, there are four main sections that are addressed. First, new methodologies are introduced for extracting lane-level road features from rough crowdsourced GPS trajectories via data mining, which is subsequently used as the fundamental information for CAV applications. The proposed method results in decimeter level accuracy, which satisfies the positioning needs for many macroscopic and microscopic shared mobility and CAV applications. Second, macroscopic ride-hailing service big data has been analyzed for demand prediction, vehicle operation, and system efficiency monitoring. The proposed deep learning algorithms increase the ride-hailing demand prediction accuracy to 80% and can help the fleet dispatching system reduce 30% of vacant travel distance. Third, microscopic automated vehicle perception data has been analyzed for a real-time computer vision system that can be used for lane change behavior detection. The proposed deep learning design combines the residual neural network image input with time serious control data and reaches 95% of lane change behavior prediction accuracy. Last but not least, new ride sharing and CAV applications have been simulated in a behavior modeling framework to analyze the impact of mobility and energy consumption, which addresses key barriers by quantifying the transportation system-wide mobility, energy and behavior impacts from new mobility technologies using real-world data
