3rd Edition of Deep Learning for Automated Driving (DLAD) workshop
IEEE International Conference on Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITSC'19) - Auckland, New Zealand, Oct 27-30, 2019.
Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) is the IEEE society for automotive broadly including autonomous driving. The Intelligent Transportation Systems Conference (ITSC'19) (link) is the annual flagship conference of the IEEE Intelligent Transportation Systems Society and this year it is the 22nd edition of the conference this year and will be held at Auckland, New Zealand. This workshop is the third edition of our workshop ‘Deep Learning for Autonomous Driving’ (DLAD) focused on deep learning applications beyond perception like fusion, mapping, planning and control. Hence it is called DLAD-BP workshop. The program of previous two editions is available here : 3D-DLAD at IV2019 Paris France, and DLAD at ITSC 2017 Yokohama, Japan.
Deep Learning has become a de-facto tool in Computer Vision and 3D processing by boosting performance and accuracy for diverse tasks such as object classification, detection, optical flow estimation, motion segmentation, mapping, etc. Deep Learning has rapidly progressed in the perception domain, tackling fields such as computer vision and lidar point-cloud processing. This workshop is an attempt to bridge the gap between in Deep Learning and machine learning methods applied to further vital tasks in the pipeline of a complete autonomous driving system. This includes sensor fusion for object detection and tracking, dynamic shared maps, trajectory optimization, path planning for real word scenarios, machine learning methods for vehicle controllers, vehicle-to-vehicle and environment communication, etc. This workshop aims to bring together the latest research of deep learning applied to various problems in Autonomous Driving beyond just perception, both from an academic research and industry in the domain of autonomous driving. We are soliciting contributions in (but not limited to) the following topics:
List of topics:
Deep learning based sensor fusion and target tracking (camera, lidar, radar, ultrasound)
Automatic sensor (Camera-Lidar, Lidar-Lidar, and others) calibration, End to End sensor Registration
Dynamic Trajectory planning for real world traffic scenarios
Deep Reinforcement learning for Motion Planning
Shared dynamic maps for Multiagent Sensor Fusion
Challenges of deployment in a commercial system (Functional safety & High accuracy)
Advanced topics in Deep Learning (Meta-learning, Multi-task learning, Self-supervised, weakly-supervised, End-to-End learning)
Other ML algorithms jointly used with Deep Learning (eg. PGMs, Probabilistic Programming)
Vehicle-to-Vehicle and Vehicle-to-Environment communication
