Human-Machine Interaction for Automated Vehicles: Driver Status Monitoring and the Takeover Process explains how to design an intelligent human-machine interface by characterizing driver behavior before and during the takeover process. Multiple solutions are presented to accommodate different sensing technologies, driving environments and driving styles. Depending on the availability and location of the camera, the recognition of driving and non-driving tasks can be based on eye gaze, head...

Advanced Driver Intention Inference: Theory and Design describes one of the most important function for future ADAS, namely, the driver intention inference. The book contains the state-of-art knowledge on the construction of driver intention inference system, providing a better understanding on how the human driver intention mechanism will contribute to a more naturalistic on-board decision system for automated vehicles. - Features examples of using machine learning/deep learning to build ...

This book details cutting-edge research into human-like driving technology, utilising game theory to better suit a human and machine hybrid driving environment. Covering feature identification and modelling of human driving behaviours, the book explains how to design an algorithm for decision making and control of autonomous vehicles in complex scenarios.Beginning with a review of current research in the field, the book uses this as a springboard from which to present a new theory ...

This book offers a systematic, comprehensive, and timely review on V-HAR, and it covers the related tasks, cutting-edge technologies, and applications of V-HAR, especially the deep learning-based approaches. The field of Human Activity Recognition (HAR) has become one of the trendiest research topics due to the availability of various sensors, live streaming of data and the advancement in computer vision, machine learning, etc. HAR can be extensively used in many scenarios, for example, me...

This book focuses on the design and development of flight control for micro-small fixed-wing unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). The content is progressively deepened and closely linked to current engineering practices. By conducting an in-depth study of several key themes—such as UAV design, modeling, single-machine control and planning, swarm control and planning, and the development of visual perception algorithms—this book enables readers with no prior background to grasp advanced develop...

This book serves as a vital foundation for regional collaboration, urging stakeholders to adopt innovative, interdisciplinary approaches. The Hindu Kush Himalaya (HKH) region, renowned for its ecological diversity and essential freshwater resources, faces pressing sustainability challenges that require comprehensive solutions. This assessment report unifies decades of research on the HKH, providing critical insights and practical strategies for sustainable development in the context of rap...
