Experimental testing of a semi-autonomous multi-vehicle collision avoidance algorithm at an intersection testbed
Open accessAbstract
This paper describes the implementation of a multi-vehicle supervisor to prevent collisions at intersections. The experiments are performed on an intersection testbed consisting of three RC cars. Here, we account for uncertainty in car dynamics and state measurement, and the presence of an uncontrolled car, which is human-driven. The supervisor overrides the controlled cars only when necessary to avoid a possible future collision. From the experiments, we demonstrate that intersection collisions are averted, that is, the cars continuously and safely run on the paths without stopping 92.8% of the times.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
