arXiv:2606. 16558v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Roundabouts challenge automated driving in mixed traffic, as heterogeneous and non-deterministic human behavior, unknown driving intentions, and high interaction complexity create uncertainty about whether the conflict zone will be blocked or available at the moment of entry.

arXiv:2606. 27381v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Queue overflow, a severe consequence of urban traffic congestion, occurs when vehicle queues exceed intersection capacity, obstructing upstream traffic and triggering cascading gridlocks.

arXiv:2607. 18286v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Transit signal priority (TSP) requires balancing competing objectives: reducing bus delay while limiting adverse impacts on non-bus traffic and avoiding extreme waits for a subset of vehicles.
By Philip-Roman Adam, Stefanie Schmidtner
arXiv:2503. 23650v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Reinforcement learning (RL), with its ability to explore and optimize policies in complex, dynamic decision-making tasks, has emerged as a promising approach to addressing motion planning (MoP) challenges in autonomous driving (AD).
