Neighboring human-driven vehicles (HDVs) frequently perform uncertain cut-in maneuvers, posing a threat to the safety and efficiency of autonomous vehicles (AVs), particularly in traffic oscillation scenarios characterized by AVs experiencing speed disturbances. In this paper, we propose an AV car-following strategy based on bounded rationality-aware reinforcement learning (BRARL) to handle cut-in...Show More
Connected and automated vehicle (CAV) platooning exhibits significant potential in enhancing traffic efficiency and sustainability. In unsteady traffic conditions, CAV platoons frequently require splitting and merging maneuvers to avoid obstacles. This study introduces a hybrid automaton architecture for collision avoidance motion planning during CAV platoon merging and splitting. A velocity obsta...Show More
The quality defects in the robot roll-hemming forming process will cause the automotive body to fail to meet the requirements of appearance and assembly accuracy. To this end, a method of robot roll-hemming forming quality evaluation based on computer vision is proposed. Firstly, the quality defects of body roll-hemming forming are divided into two categories: dimensional defects and roll-hemming ...Show More
This paper proposes an anti-disturbance car-following strategy for attenuating (i) exogenous disturbances from preceding traffic oscillations and (ii) endogenous disturbances in vehicular control systems (e.g., wind gust, ground friction, and rolling resistance). Firstly, it employs a modified robust controller to generate an expert car-following control experience. Subsequently, it imitates the e...Show More
A promising way to improve efficiency in highway on-ramp regions is to control connected and automated vehicles (CAVs) to pass the merging section sequentially. The primary objective of this paper is to incorporate the reinforcement learning (RL) technique into vehicle merging control to achieve global cooperation. A communication protocol among RL agents is integrated with the Soft Actor-Critic (...Show More
This article proposes an optimal jam-absorption driving (JAD) strategy, which not only prevents the occurring traffic oscillation but also avoids the consequential jam caused by the JAD vehicle. We first conducted a theoretical analysis to estimate the relationship between velocity and space headway within kinematic waves. Then an optimization function was formed to minimize the system travel dela...Show More
