Numerous investigations have explored the integration of machine leaning algorithms with high-resolution drone image for object detection in urban settings. However, a prevalent limitation in vehicle extraction studies involves the reliance on bounding boxes rather than instance segmentation. This limitation hinders the precise determination of vehicle direction and exact boundaries. Instance segmentation, while providing detailed object boundaries, necessitates labour intensive labelling for individual objects, prompting the need for research on automating unsupervised instance segmentation in vehicle extraction. In this study, a novel approach was proposed for vehicle extraction utilizing unsupervised SVM classification applied to vehicle bounding boxes in drone images. The method aims to address the challenges associated with bounding box-based approaches and provide a more accurate representation of vehicle boundaries. The study showed promising results, demonstrating an 89% accuracy in vehicle extraction. Notably, the proposed technique proved effective even when dealing with significant variations in spectral characteristics within the vehicles. This research contributes to advancing the field by offering a viable solution for automatic and unsupervised instance segmentation in the context of vehicle extraction from image.

By coming of the 4th industrial revolution era, HD map have became a key infrastructure for determining precise location of autonomous driving in areas of futuristic cars, logistics and robots. Autonomous vehicles have became more dependent on HD map to determine the exact location of objects detected by various sensors such as LiDAR, GNSS, Radar, and stereo cameras as well as self-location decisions. By actualizing autonomous driving and C-ITS technologies, the demand for precise information on HD map have increased. And also the demand for the creation of new information based on the convergence of various changes and real-time information have increased. In this study, domestic and international HD map standards and related environments have analyzed. Based on this, usability has researched which comparison with standard HD map established by various institutions. Additionally, usability of standard HD map have studied for applying actual autonomous vehicles by reworking HD map. By the result of study, standard HD map have well established to use by various institutions. If further research about layer classification and definition by institutions will carried out based on this study, it has expected that and efficient establishment and renewal of HD map will take place.

We propose a bicycle detection system riding on people based on modified projected local binary pattern(PLBP) for vision based intelligent vehicles. Projection method has robustness for rotation invariant and reducing dimensionality for original image. The features of Local binary pattern(LBP) are fast to compute and simple to implement for object recognition and texture classification area. Moreover, We use uniform pattern to remove the noise. This paper suggests that modified LBP method and projection vector having different weighting values according to the local shape and area in the image. Also our system maintains the simplicity of evaluation of traditional formulation while being more discriminative. Our experimental results show that a bicycle and motorcycle riding on people detection system based on proposed PLBP features achieve higher detection accuracy rate than traditional features.

Human detection technologies are widely used in smart homes and autonomous vehicles. However, in order to detect human, autonomous vehicle researchers have used a high-resolution LIDAR and smart home researchers have applied a camera with a narrow detection range. In this paper, we propose a novel method using a low-cost and low-resolution LIDAR that can detect human fast and precisely without complex learning algorithm and additional devices. In other words, human can be distinguished from objects by using a new human characteristics function which is empirically extracted from the characteristics of a human. In addition, we verified the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm through a number of experiments.

We propose a novel application of random forest, a machine learning-based general classification algorithm, to analyze the influence of design attributes on the silicon-to-SPICE (S2S) gap. To improve modeling accuracy, we introduce magnification of learning data as well as randomization for the counting of design attributes to be used for each tree in the forest. From the automatically generated decision trees, we can extract the so-called importance and impact indices, which identify the most significant design attributes determining the S2S gap. We apply the proposed method to actual silicon data, and observe that the identified design attributes show a clear trend in the S2S gap. We finally unveil 10nm key fin-shaped field effect transistor (FinFET) structures that result in a large S2S gap using the measurement data from 10nm test vehicles specialized for model-hardware correlation.

Unmanned ground vehicles have important military, reconnaissance, and materials handling application. Many of these applications require the UGVs to move at high speeds through uneven, natural terrain with various compositions and physical parameters. This paper presents a framework for high speed autonomous navigation based on the integrated real time traversability. Specifically, the proposed system performs real-time dynamic simulation and calculate maximum traversing velocity guaranteeing safe motion over rough terrain. The architecture of autonomous navigation is firstly presented for high-speed autonomous navigation. Then, the integrated real time traversability, which is composed of initial velocity profiling step, dynamic analysis step, road classification step and stable velocity profiling step, is introduced. Experimental results are presented that demonstrate the method for a $6{\times}6$ autonomous vehicle moving on flat terrain with bump.

Risk-based security impact evaluation may be affected by various factors according to numerous combinations of explosive devices, cutting devices, impact vehicles, and specific attack location to consider. Presently, in planning and design phases, designers are still often uncertain of their responsibility, lack of information and training of security. Therefore, designers are still failing to exploit the potential to reduce threats on site. In this study, the concept of security impact assessment is introduced in order to derive the performing design for safety in design phase. For this purpose, a framework for security impact assessment model using risk-based approach for bridge structures is suggested. The suggested model includes of information survey, classification of terror threats, and quantitative estimation of severity and occurrence.

Compared with traditional itinerary planning, intention-oriented itinerary recommendations can provide more flexible activity planning without requiring the user's predetermined destinations and is especially helpful for those in unfamiliar environments. The rank and classification of points of interest (POI) from location-based social networks (LBSN) are used to indicate different user intentions. The mining of vehicles' physical trajectories can provide exact civil traffic information for path planning. This paper proposes a POI category-based itinerary recommendation framework combining physical trajectories with LBSN. Specifically, a Voronoi graph-based GPS trajectory analysis method is utilized to build traffic information networks, and an ant colony algorithm for multi-object optimization is implemented to locate the most appropriate itineraries. We conduct experiments on datasets from the Foursquare and GeoLife projects. A test of users' satisfaction with the recommended items is also performed. Our results show that the satisfaction level reaches an average of 80%.
