Path planning and tracking control is an essential part of autonomous vehicle research. In terms of path planning, the artificial potential field (APF) algorithm has attracted much attention due to its completeness. However, it has many limitations, such as local minima, unreachable targets, and inadequate safety.

Automobile intelligence is the trend for modern automobiles, of which environment perception is the key technology of intelligent automobile research. For autonomous vehicles, the detection of object information, such as vehicles and pedestrians in traffic scenes is crucial to improving driving safety. However, in the actual traffic scene, there are many special conditions such as object occlusion, small objects, and bad weather, which will affect the accuracy of object detection.

Object detection is a critical technology of environmental perception for autonomous driving vehicle. The Convolutional Neural Network has gradually become a powerful tool in the field of vehicle detection because of its powerful ability of feature extraction. In aiming to reach the balance between speed and accuracy of detection in complex traffic scenarios, this paper proposes an improved lightweight and high-performance vehicle-pedestrian detection algorithm based on the YOLOv4.

Electroencephalogram (EEG)-based motor imagery (MI) brain-computer interface (BCI) has shown its effectiveness for the control of rehabilitation devices designed for large body parts of the patients with neurologic impairments. In order to validate the feasibility of using EEG to decode the MI of a single index finger and constructing a BCI-enhanced finger rehabilitation system, we collected EEG data during right hand index finger MI and rest state for five healthy subjects and proposed a pattern recognition approach for classifying these two mental states. First, Fisher's linear discriminant criteria and power spectral density analysis were used to analyze the event-related desynchronization patterns.

Most spectral background subtraction methods rely on the difference in frequency response of background compared with characteristic peaks. It is difficult to extract accurately the background components from the spectrum when characteristic peaks and background have overlaps in frequency domain. An improved background estimation algorithm based on iterative wavelet transform (IWT) is presented.
