Published: May 2021

In this paper, some collision avoidance systems based on MEC in a VANET environment are proposed and investigated. Micro services at edge are considered to support service continuity in vehicle communication and advertising. This considered system makes use of cloud and edge computing, allowing to switch communication from edge to cloud server and vice versa when possible, trying to guarantee the required constraints and balancing the communication among the servers. Simulation results were used to evaluate the performance of three considered mechanisms: the first one considering only edge with load balancing, the second one using edge/cloud switching and the third one using edge with load balancing and collision avoidance advertising.

Uncertainty-Aware Multimodal Trajectory Prediction via a Single Inference from a Single Model.

Sensors (Basel)

January 2025

Seamless Trans-X Lab (STL), School of Integrated Technology, Yonsei University, Incheon 21983, Republic of Korea.

In the domain of autonomous driving, trajectory prediction plays a pivotal role in ensuring the safety and reliability of autonomous systems, especially when navigating complex environments. Unfortunately, trajectory prediction suffers from uncertainty problems due to the randomness inherent in the driving environment, but uncertainty quantification in trajectory prediction is not widely addressed, and most studies rely on deep ensembles methods. This study presents a novel uncertainty-aware multimodal trajectory prediction (UAMTP) model that quantifies aleatoric and epistemic uncertainties through a single forward inference.

Investigation of the Ocular Response and Corneal Damage Threshold of Exposure to 28 GHz Quasi-millimeter Wave Exposure.

Health Phys

January 2025

Division of Vision Research for Environmental Health, Medical Research Institute and Department of Ophthalmology, Kanazawa Medical University, Kahoku, Japan.

Electromagnetic radiation energy at millimeter wave frequencies, typically 30 GHz to 300 GHz, is ubiquitously used in society in devices for telecommunications; radar and imaging systems for vehicle collision avoidance, security screening, and medical equipment; scientific research tools for spectroscopy; industrial applications for non-destructive testing and precise measurement; and military and defense applications. Understanding the biological effects of this technology is essential. We have been investigating ocular responses and damage thresholds comparing various frequencies using rabbit eyes and dedicated experimental apparatus.

The rapid acceleration of urbanization and the surge in car ownership necessitate efficient automatic parking solutions in constricted spaces to address the escalating urban parking issue. To optimize space utilization, enhance traffic efficiency, and mitigate accident risks, a method is proposed for smooth, comfortable, and adaptable automatic parking trajectory planning. This study initially employs a hybrid A* algorithm to generate a preliminary path, then fits the velocity and acceleration based on a cubic polynomial.

With the decreasing and aging agricultural workforce, fruit harvesting robots equipped with higher degrees of freedom (DoF) manipulators are seen as a promising solution for performing harvesting operations in unstructured and complex orchard environments. In such a complex environment, guiding the end-effector from its starting position to the target fruit while avoiding obstacles poses a significant challenge for path planning in automatic harvesting. However, existing studies often rely on manually constructed environmental map models and face limitations in planning efficiency and computational cost.

Energy-Efficient Collision-Free Machine/AGV Scheduling Using Vehicle Edge Intelligence.

Sensors (Basel)

December 2024

Hubei Province Engineering Technology Research Center for Construction Quality Testing Equipments, College of Computer and Information Technology, China Three Gorges University, Yichang 443002, China.

With the widespread use of autonomous guided vehicles (AGVs), avoiding collisions has become a challenging problem. Addressing the issue is not straightforward since production efficiency, collision avoidance, and energy consumption are conflicting factors. This paper proposes a novel edge computing method based on vehicle edge intelligence to solve the energy-efficient collision-free machine/AGV scheduling problem.
