Abstract

Autonomous vehicles are expected to play a key role in the future of urban transportation systems, as they offer potential for additional safety, increased productivity, greater accessibility, better road efficiency, and positive impact on the environment. Research in autonomous systems has seen dramatic advances in recent years, due to the increases in available computing power and reduced cost in sensing and computing technologies, resulting in maturing technological readiness level of fully autonomous vehicles. The objective of this paper is to provide a general overview of the recent developments in the realm of autonomous vehicle software systems. Fundamental components of autonomous vehicle software are reviewed, and recent developments in each area are discussed.

  • Human-sentient design, implementation, and distribution of automated systems is indispensable.

    “However, from a social and technological aspect, the basic notion seems to be that human-sentient design, implementation, and distribution of automated systems is indispensable [87], [88].”

    From A Review of Trustworthy and Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) (2023) · cites this paper as [88]

    The Conclusions (page unavailable) say that autonomous driving must address safety, reliability, and social and legal acceptability. This supports attention to people and social concerns in autonomous vehicles, but the paper does not say that human-sentient design, implementation, and distribution are indispensable for automated systems generally.

  • AVs, as part of shared mobility, make access to mobility more affordable and could strongly benefit neighbourhoods with lower accessibility.

    “Therefore, Pendleton et al. [35] argue that AVs, as part of shared mobility, make access to mobility more affordable and could strongly benefit neighbourhoods with lower accessibility.”
  • Feedback controllers like PID are employed to prevent deviations from intended trajectories, but they have limits and only react to errors as they happen.

    “Although they have limits and only react to errors as they happen [46], feedback controllers like the proportional-integral-derivative (PID) are employed to prevent deviations from intended trajectories.”
  • There are still issues to be solved to enhance the driving capabilities of autonomous vehicles.

    “Pendleton et al. (2017) review the development of autonomous vehicle software systems and conclude that there are still issues to be solved to enhance the driving capabilities of autonomous vehicles.”

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.
