AI has revolutionized transportation through advanced algorithms for perception, decision-making, and control. Our research ensures vehicles navigate and respond autonomously in complex environments, defining the cutting edge for safer, more efficient, and intelligent transportation solutions.
a. Statistically Correlated Multi-task Learning for Autonomous Driving
In this study we focus to develop novel approach to autonomous driving research,
emphasizing multi-task learning (MTL) with a single input image. The proposed
end-to-end deep learning architecture incorporates shared layers to efficiently
handle statistically correlated tasks, including estimating steering angle, braking,
acceleration, and the number of lanes on both sides of the vehicle.
To address the challenge of varying task significance and ranges, the model
explores different normalization schemes, identifying the inverse validation-loss
weighted scheme as the most effective. The evaluation conducted on four publicly
available datasets and a synthetic dataset (GTA-V) showcases the superior
performance of the proposed approach compared to current state-of-the-art
methods. This highlights the potential of the end-to-end deep learning architecture
and multi-task learning for advancing autonomous driving research.
