Connected Cities for Smart Mobility toward Accessible and Resilient Transportation
Dr. Sikai (Sky) Chen will discuss recent developments in vehicle automation with mixed traffic stream, including the challenges and opportunities associated with AI/ML algorithm development and application for CAV operations.
To realize the full potential of AVs, Dr. Li proposes a roadmap of cooperative & automated transportation, from optimal trajectory control in ideal conditions through a cooperative control framework incorporating edge computing and machine learning under real-world constraints.
Wei and Chenxi will discuss the development and impact of the smart roadside unit, along with a Mobile Unit for Traffic Sensing (MUST) employed for data analysis and for reliable, efficient communication with surrounding vehicles.
The NYC CV Pilot has deployed over 450 roadside units and 3,000 aftermarket safety devices in vehicles running 13 vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-infrastructure applications focused on safety. The webinar will provide an overview of the performance evaluation of the deployed CV applications in NYC’s urban canyon environment. The webinar will also cover NYC’s plans for the next phase of the project after completion of the CV Pilot’s Phase III operations.
The emergence of connected and autonomous vehicles (CAVs) presents increased opportunities to mitigate traffic congestion, improve safety and reduce accidents. Professor Zhong-Ping Jiang, and researchers Leilei Cui and Sayan Chakraborty are applying innovative reinforcement learning control methods to one challenging aspect of CAV control: lane changing in mixed traffic. The team takes a novel approach by reducing the trajectory planning and tracking problem down to the minimization of a cost function that depends on a target way-point in the lane a CAV is targeting.
The USDOT Connected Vehicle (CV) Pilot Program sought to test vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) and vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) applications to improve tranportation systems, mobility, and safety with real-world deployments in New York City,
