Proactive Road Safety Intervention in Australia: Predicting Risky Driving Hotspots from Connected Vehicle Data

The paper proposes a proactive approach to road safety in Greater Sydney by using connected vehicle telemetry to predict risky driving events before crashes occur. It quantifies risky driving with g‑force thresholds and builds spatio‑temporal heatmaps to locate high‑risk zones. Eight predictive models were compared, with ARIMA achieving the lowest error and showing that simple time‑series methods can rival deep learning when data are limited, highlighting the value of IoT data for targeted safety interventions.

MotoSafety: Edge-AI with Learned Temporal Importance for Two-Wheeler Collision Risk Assessment Under Time Pressure

MotoSafety is an edge-AI system designed to assess collision risk for two‑wheeler riders under varying time pressure. It is trained on a large dataset of 129,000 labeled time‑series sequences from 153 simulator rides, capturing 64 features related to vehicle dynamics, control inputs, proximity, and behavioral violations. The model achieves 94.97% accuracy and 99.33% ROC AUC, with only 1.15 M parameters and 0.135 ms latency, making it suitable for low‑cost CPU deployment and demonstrating strong transferability to other domains.

QoS-Aware Federated Learning for Multimodal In-Cabin Interaction in Smart Vehicles

The paper introduces FedQoS, an asynchronous federated learning framework designed for multimodal in‑cabin interaction in smart vehicles. It uses a two‑phase gating mechanism: a resource‑aware training gate that starts local learning only when sensing buffers and energy reserves meet safety thresholds, and a QoS‑aware transmission policy that gates uplink updates based on an efficiency score balancing model novelty, latency, and energy costs. Experiments on vehicular datasets show FedQoS achieves competitive personalized accuracy with only marginal loss compared to FedAvg, while reducing communication overhead by 76.7% and latency cost by 26.0%.

MLPerf Automotive

MLPerf Automotive is the first standardized public performance benchmark for evaluating machine learning systems used in automotive AI acceleration. Developed by MLCommons, it addresses the unique constraints of automotive workloads—such as sensor suites, safety, and real‑time processing—that existing benchmarks cannot handle. The benchmark covers perception tasks (2D/3D object detection, semantic segmentation), end‑to‑end driving, and infotainment, and includes curated models, methodology, and reference implementations available on GitHub.

PRISM: An Agentic Multi-Model Architecture for Proactive Safety in Autonomous Transportation Systems

PRISM (Proactive Risk Intelligence and Safety Management) is an agentic multi-model architecture designed to shift autonomous transportation safety from reactive crash avoidance to proactive, continuous risk management. It uses inverse crash‑probability modeling to transform binary crash classifiers into dynamic safety scores, and runs three specialized models—trajectory kinematics, environmental risk, and VRU interaction—coordinated by a reinforcement‑learning reasoning layer. Across 1,296 naturalistic driving scenarios, PRISM achieved a mean safety score of 68/100, classified 77.6% of situations as advisory, and flagged 3.8% as near‑misses, with 11% requiring intervention or emergency response, highlighting trajectory risk and VRU proximity as key safety factors.
