Situation Awareness for Intelligent Data Distribution in Connected Vehicles

Read the original on arXiv AI →

The paper proposes a method for identifying the current traffic situation of a vehicle using Bird's‑Eye‑View images. It combines object detection with semantic segmentation and a situation identification neural network built on the Cam2BEV projective transformation. The approach was validated in the CARLA simulator and on Cityscapes and nuScenes datasets, demonstrating that it can prioritize relevant sensor data for efficient distribution in connected vehicles.

Enhancing Road Safety Through Multi-Camera Image Segmentation with Post-Encroachment Time Analysis

The paper introduces a multi‑camera computer vision system that computes Post‑Encroachment Time (PET) in real time to assess intersection safety. Using four synchronized cameras and YOLOv11 segmentation on NVIDIA Jetson AGX Xavier devices, vehicle detections are mapped to a unified bird’s‑eye view and processed with a pixel‑level PET algorithm to generate high‑resolution heatmaps. The system records PET data in an SQL database and demonstrates real‑time throughput (2.68 FPS) with 800 × 800 heatmaps, validating a scalable, decentralized approach for high‑resolution intersection safety evaluation.
