A Goal-Directed Trajectory Planning Using Active Inference in UAV-Assisted Wireless Networks.

Deploying unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) as aerial base stations is an exceptional approach to reinforce terrestrial infrastructure owing to their remarkable flexibility and superior agility. However, it is essential to design their flight trajectory effectively to make the most of UAV-assisted wireless communications. This paper presents a novel method for improving wireless connectivity between UAVs and terrestrial users through effective path planning.

Systematic and Comprehensive Review of Clustering and Multi-Target Tracking Techniques for LiDAR Point Clouds in Autonomous Driving Applications.

Autonomous vehicles (AVs) rely on advanced sensory systems, such as Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR), to function seamlessly in intricate and dynamic environments. LiDAR produces highly accurate 3D point clouds, which are vital for the detection, classification, and tracking of multiple targets. A systematic review and classification of various clustering and Multi-Target Tracking (MTT) techniques are necessary due to the inherent challenges posed by LiDAR data, such as density, noise, and varying sampling rates.

A Kalman Variational Autoencoder Model assisted by Odometric Clustering for Video Frame Prediction and Anomaly Detection.

The combination of different sensory information to predict upcoming situations is an innate capability of intelligent beings. Consequently, various studies in the Artificial Intelligence field are currently being conducted to transfer this ability to artificial systems. Autonomous vehicles can particularly benefit from the combination of multi-modal information from the different sensors of the agent.

Graph-Powered Interpretable Machine Learning Models for Abnormality Detection in Ego-Things Network.

In recent days, it is becoming essential to ensure that the outcomes of signal processing methods based on machine learning (ML) data-driven models can provide interpretable predictions. The interpretability of ML models can be defined as the capability to understand the reasons that contributed to generating a given outcome in a complex autonomous or semi-autonomous system. The necessity of interpretability is often related to the evaluation of performances in complex systems and the acceptance of agents' automatization processes where critical high-risk decisions have to be taken.
