This paper studies a steering control method using a neural network algorithm for an intelligent autonomous driving robot. Previous horizontal steering control methods were made by various possible situation on the road. However, it isn't possible to make out algorithms that consider all sudden variances on the road. In this paper, an intelligent steering control algorithm for an autonomous driving robot system is presented. The algorithm is based on Self Organizing Maps(SOM) and the feature points on the road are used as training datum. In a simulation test, it is available to handle a steering control using SOM for an autonomous steering control. The algorithm is evaluated on an autonomous driving robot. The algorithm is available to control a steering for an autonomous driving robot with better performance at the experiments.

The operational design domain (ODD) of autonomous vehicles needs to be expanded on highways and urban roads in light of the substantial commercialization of Level 3 autonomous vehicles. Therefore, this study developed a specific infrastructure autonomous vehicle-based cooperative driving service to ensure the driving safety of autonomous vehicles on city roads. The traffic operation efficiency, safety evaluation, and core evaluation indices for each service were selected and analyzed to study the effect of each service. The result of the analysis confirmed that the traffic operation efficiency and safety of autonomous vehicles were improved through the V2X communication-based autonomous cooperative driving service. On the whole, the significance of this study is in deriving the effect of the autonomous cooperative driving service based on V2X communication on urban roads with interrupting traffic flow.

In this paper, we propose a new design method of an optimal fuzzy logic controller using co-evolutionary concept. In general, it is very difficult to find optimal fuzzy rules by experience when the input and/or output variables are going to increase. Futhermore proper fuzzy partitioning is not deterministic ad there is no unique solution. So we propose a co-evolutionary method finding optimal fuzzy rules and proper fuzzy membership functions at the same time. Predator-Prey co-evolution and symbiotic co-evolution algorithms, typical approaching methods to co-evolution, are reviewed, and dynamic fitness landscape associated with co-evolution is explained. Our algorithm is that after constructing two population groups made up of rule base and membership function, by co-evolving these two populations, we find optimal fuzzy logic controller. By applying the propose method to a path planning problem of autonomous mobile robots when moving objects applying the proposed method to a pa h planning problem of autonomous mobile robots when moving objects exist, we show the validity of the proposed method.

Recently autonomous navigation systems are taken great attention in real industry. The ability to performing desired tasks in rough, changing, unstructured and uncertain environments without continuous human assistance is needed in autonomous navigation systems including autonomous robots. Industrial Mobile robot can be required wireless network communications for the purpose of navigation information sharing. According to these backgrounds, in this paper, we develop sensor network and wireless network-based autonomous navigation systems, and provide experimental results in order to show the validity of the developed systems.

As the traffic environment gradually changes to autonomous driving and intelligent transport systems, vehicles are becoming increasingly complicated and intelligent, and their connectivity is greatly expandinged. As a result, attack vectors of such vehicles increasing, and security threats further expanding. Currently, various solutions for vehicle security are being developed and applied, but the damage caused by cyber attacks is still increasing. In recent years, vehicles such as the Tesla Model S and Mitsubishi Outlander have been hacked and remotely controlled by an attacker. Therefore, there is a need for advanced security technologies to cope with increasingly intelligent and sophisticated automotive cyber attacks. In this article, we introduce the latest trends of autonomous vehicles and their security threats, as well as the current status and issues of security technologies to cope with them.

Recently, autonomous parking problems have attracted a great deal of attention and have been examined in many papers in the literature. In this paper we design a fuzzy logic based parking system which is an important part for designing an autonomous parking system. We first analysis the existed papers and design a single-input fuzzy logic system for the parking algorithm and illustrate the effectiveness of the new method via the simulation results.

Unlike conventional vehicle traffic accidents, autonomous vehicles traffic accidents can be caused by various factors, including technical problems, the environment, and driver interaction. With the future advances in autonomous driving technology, new issues are expected to emerge in addition to the existing accident causes, and various scenario-based approaches are needed to respond to them. This study developed autonomous vehicle traffic accident scenarios by collecting autonomous driving accident reports, CA DMV collision reports, autonomous driving mode disengagement reports, and autonomous driving actual accident videos. The scenarios were derived based on the functional safety system failure modes of ISO 26262 and attempted to reflect the various issues of autonomous driving functions. The autonomous vehicle scenarios derived through this study are expected to play an essential role in preventing and preparing for various autonomous vehicle traffic accidents in the future and improving the safety of autonomous driving technology.

최근 선박의 자율운항기술이 활발하게 연구되어 오면서, 경로추종 제어 및 충돌회피 등의 자율운항 기술 연구가 많이 진행되고 있으며 그에 따른 시뮬레이션과 실해역 시험 등도 활발하게 수행되고 있다. 이러한 자율운항기술 중 본 연구에서는 AUV(Autonomous Underwater Vehicle) 진회수 시 모함에 활용되며 쌍동선형을 갖는 쌍동형 무인수상선을 대상으로 경로추종 제어에 대한 실해역 시험을 수행한 내용을 소개한다. 대상선인 쌍동형 무인수상선은 배수량이 약 10ton, 최대속도 10knots를 기준으로 설계된 선형이며 Sail drive 타입의 쌍축 추진기를 탑재하고 있으며 Fig. 1에 나타내었다. 실해역 시험은 경기도 화성시에 위치한 제부마리나 전면 해역에서 여러 속도에 대해 Fig. 2의 경로(빨간색)를 활용하여 수행되었다. 해당 경로는 변침각이 45도까지 이루어져 있다. 경로추종 제어 알고리즘은 목표경유점을 향하기 위해 선수각을 제어하는 부분과 목표속도로 추진하기 위해 속도를 제어하는 부분으로 나뉘어져 있다. 선수각 제어 시 경로와 무인선과의 위치 오차를 줄이는 방향으로 선수각이 향할 수 있도록 알고리즘이 설계되었다. 속도 제어의 경우 RPM 별로 실제 속도를 계측하여 데이터화 한 후, 실제 속도가 명령 속도와 다를 경우 RPM을 가감하여 명령 속도로 추진하기 위해 제어할 수 있도록 하였다. Fig. 2에서 파란색 선은 설계한 알고리즘을 활용하여 경로추종 제어를 한 결과의 궤적을 보여준다.

Recently many researches on intelligent robots have been studied. An intelligent robot is capable of recognizing environments or objects to autonomously perform specific tasks using sensor readings. One of fundamental problems in vision-based robot applications is to recognize where it is and to decide safe path to perform autonomous navigation. However, previous approaches only consider well-organized environments that there is no moving object and environment changes. In this paper, we introduce a novel navigation strategy to handle occlusions caused by moving objects using various computer vision techniques. Experimental results demonstrate the capability to overcome such difficulties for autonomous navigation.
