The past decade has witnessed the rapid development of Connected and Automated Vehicles (CAV), which could potentially avoid 90% or more traffic accidents, tremendously mitigate traffic congestion, considerably reduce vehicle energy consumption, and significantly improve the efficiency of the roadway usage. However, the existing CAV system is inadequate for the challenges of analyzing large-scale heterogeneous traffic data captured with various vehicle-mounted sensors—cameras, radar, infrared, LIDAR, etc., and making time-critical decisions in complicated driving environments. Solving these two issues goes beyond individual AI techniques, e.g., perception, planning, or reasoning, and calls for innovative computing methods that can work in a tightly collaborative manner.
The mission of this workshop is to create a synergy among AI community – including computer vision, cognition, reasoning, learning, planning etc., and CAV. The three goals of this event are
