Vision-Based Lane-Changing Behavior Detection Using Deep Residual Neural Network
Accurate lane localization and lane change detection are crucial in advanced
driver assistance systems and autonomous driving systems for safer and more
efficient trajectory planning. Conventional localization devices such as Global
Positioning System only provide road-level resolution for car navigation, which
is incompetent to assist in lane-level decision making. The state of art
technique for lane localization is to use Light Detection and Ranging sensors
to correct the global localization error and achieve centimeter-level accuracy,
but the real-time implementation and popularization for LiDAR is still limited
by its computational burden and current cost. As a cost-effective alternative,
vision-based lane change detection has been highly regarded for affordable
autonomous vehicles to support lane-level localization. A deep learning-based
computer vision system is developed to detect the lane change behavior using
the images captured by a front-view camera mounted on the vehicle and data from
the inertial measurement unit for highway driving. Testing results on
real-world driving data have shown that the proposed method is robust with
real-time working ability and could achieve around 87% lane change detection
accuracy. Compared to the average human reaction to visual stimuli, the
proposed computer vision system works 9 times faster, which makes it capable of
helping make life-saving decisions in time
Learning behavior in abstract memory schemes for dynamic optimization problems
This is the post-print version of this article. The official article can be accessed from the link below - Copyright @ 2009 Springer VerlagIntegrating memory into evolutionary algorithms is one major approach to enhance their performance in dynamic environments. An abstract memory scheme has been recently developed for evolutionary algorithms in dynamic environments, where the abstraction of good solutions is stored in the memory instead of good solutions themselves to improve future problem solving. This paper further investigates this abstract memory with a focus on understanding the relationship between learning and memory, which is an important but poorly studied issue for evolutionary algorithms in dynamic environments. The experimental study shows that the abstract memory scheme enables learning processes and hence efficiently improves the performance of evolutionary algorithms in dynamic environments.The work by S.
