Uncertainty-aware and safety-enhanced management of CAVs for safer mixed traffic
Abstract: Safety of connected and autonomous vehicles (CAVs) within mixed traffic environments, characterized by a coexistence of CAVs and human-driven vehicles (HDVs), necessitates a comprehensive approach that takes into account the multifaceted uncertainties inherent in real traffic scenarios and driving environments. This project mainly aims to achieve the following two objectives to enhance safe operation of CAVs in real-world complex traffic environment: 1) Uncertainty perception and quantification in mixed traffic scenarios to identify and quantify risk. 2) Safety-enhanced and uncertainty-aware operational control of CAVs in mixed traffic environments.
Traffic safety benefit: Enhance the safety of CAVs in mixed traffic with uncertainties
Connected to ICV-safe project.
Key words: Safety; mixed traffic; uncertainties; robust control
