Exploration of Machine Learning and Neural Networks for ADAS and L4 Vehicle Perception

Convolutional neural networks are the de facto method of processing camera, radar, and lidar data for use in perception in ADAS and L4 vehicles, yet their operation is a black box to many engineers. Neural networks are trained, and the internal structure created during the training process is too complex to be understood by humans, yet in operation networks are able to classify objects of interest at error rates better than rates achieved by humans viewing the same input data. In this course, you’ll examine an existing convolutional network to understand how it is constructed and trained, and then, using open-source Python tools, you’ll create your own convolutional neural network. You’ll train your network using a supplied training dataset and then test your networks performance.

Vehicle Architecture for Hybrid, Electric, Automated, and Shared Vehicle Design

Electric and hybrid vehicle engineers and designers are faced with the important issue of how to adequately configure required powertrain system components to achieve needed performance, occupant accommodation, and operational objectives. This course enables participants to fully comprehend vehicle architectural/configurational design requirements to enable efficient structural design, effective packaging of required components, and efficient vehicle performance for shared and autonomous operation. The importance of integrating these design requirements with specific vehicle user needs and expectations will be emphasized. In-class individual and group projects will enable participants to gain practical experience in applying gained knowledge of efficient electric and hybrid vehicle component packaging strategies.

Introduction to Highly Automated Vehicles

This course highlights the technologies enabling ADAS and how they integrate with existing passive occupant crash protection systems, how ADAS functions perceive the world, make decisions, and either warn drivers or actively intervene in controlling the vehicle to avoid or mitigate crashes. Examples of current and future ADAS functions and various sensors utilized in ADAS, including their operation and limitations, and sample algorithms, will be discussed and demonstrated. The course utilizes a combination of hands-on activities, including computer simulations, discussion, and lecture.
