Safety Decision-Making for Autonomous Vehicles
Description
According to the data provided by World Health Organization, about 1.25 million people are killed and even more people are injured in traffic accidents each year. A significant amount of work has been carried out along with technological advancements to ensure the safety of automobiles. For example, the advanced driving assistance system plays an auxiliary role for the general public to drive, and the intelligent transportation system also brings convenience to road safety management. However, developing a more powerful automatic driving system and evaluating its safety are still great challenges that need further studies. This book will demonstrate the safety decision-making according to the requirement of increasing the safety of autonomous driving. In detail, including the introduction techniques of AI-monitor-based safe decision making, ODD-monitor-based safe decision making, Legal decision-making for autonomous driving, and Moral decision-making under extremely critical situations.
