The focus of this project was on formulating a model and decision support tool to aid in the decision to build and maintain an Air Traffic Control Tower (ATCT). An important aspect of air travel are ATCTs, towers that help facilitate communication between the airport system and airplanes ascending and descending. ATCTs bring economic, safety, and efficiency benefits to airports and nearby communities. Currently, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) uses a document outlining a benefit-cost ratio for building a new tower, with tower funding provided if the ratio is greater than 1. However, the current policy lacks a comprehensive and systematic assessment of factors that influence both costs and benefits to operators and the region.To address these issues, we started by speaking with air traffic stakeholders and then began to collect data from a variety of aviation datasets. Based on the collected data, we identified economy, safety, and efficiency as our three areas of focus. With this data, we were able to compute the similarity, using hierarchical clustering, of a given airport to currently towered airports based on data from the economy, safety, and efficiency sources. We then built an interactive interface to display these similarities and provide information for airports to contact the similar airports.
该项目的重点是制定一个模型和决策支持工具,以协助决定建造和维护空中交通管制塔。空中交通的一个重要方面是空中交通管制塔,它有助于促进机场系统和飞机升降之间的通信。空中交通管制为机场和附近社区带来经济、安全和效率效益。目前,美国联邦航空管理局(FAA)使用一份文件,概述了建造新塔台的效益-成本比率,如果该比率大于1,则提供塔台资金。然而,目前的政策缺乏对影响运营商和该地区成本和收益的因素进行全面和系统的评估。为了解决这些问题,我们首先与空中交通利益相关者进行了交谈,然后开始从各种航空数据集中收集数据。根据收集到的数据,我们确定了经济、安全和效率是我们关注的三个领域。有了这些数据,我们就能够根据来自经济、安全和效率来源的数据,使用分层聚类计算给定机场与当前塔楼机场的相似性。然后,我们构建了一个交互界面来显示这些相似性,并为机场联系相似的机场提供信息。

Perioperative mortality rate (POMR) is a metric widely used to describe the quality of treatment in hospitals. Perioperative data, or data collected during surgery, can be used to calculate POMR and determine factors that lead to adverse surgical outcomes. Access to such data is essential for decreasing POMR and improving medical treatment. In low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), perioperative data is often manually recorded on paper flowsheets. While these flowsheets capture essential information, their non-digital format leads to difficulty in analysis of perioperative data, as aggregating data and observing trends is a time-consuming and tedious task. The goal of this project is to design a system to digitize the information contained in surgical flowsheets that have been in use for six years at the University Teaching Hospital of Kigali in Rwanda. To accomplish this goal, the research team has done the following: 1) Designed a wooden scanning structure, SARA (Scanning Apparatus for Remote Access), to capture flowsheet images in a standard format, 2) Developed a web application to upload images and securely transfer them to UVA for processing, 3) Developed image processing programs to digitize medication, blood pressure, heart rate and logistical data, and 4) Created a PostgreSQL database system to store the digitized flowsheet data. Additional testing and validation of this system is needed to evaluate the accuracy of each processing technique in the fully integrated system.
围手术期死亡率(POMR)是一个广泛用于描述医院治疗质量的指标。围手术期数据或手术期间收集的数据可用于计算POMR并确定导致不良手术结果的因素。获得这类数据对于减少POMR和改善医疗至关重要。在低收入和中等收入国家,围手术期数据通常是手工记录在纸质流程表上。虽然这些流程捕获了基本信息,但它们的非数字格式导致了围手术期数据分析的困难,因为汇总数据和观察趋势是一项耗时且乏味的任务。该项目的目标是设计一个系统,将卢旺达基加利大学教学医院已经使用了六年的手术流程中包含的信息数字化。为了实现这一目标,研究小组做了以下工作:1)设计了一个木制扫描结构SARA(扫描设备用于远程访问),以标准格式捕获流程图图像;2)开发了一个web应用程序,将图像上传并安全地传输到UVA进行处理;3)开发了图像处理程序,将药物、血压、心率和物流数据数字化;4)创建了PostgreSQL数据库系统,用于存储数字化流程图数据。需要对该系统进行额外的测试和验证,以评估完全集成系统中每个加工技术的准确性。

Emergent and future conditions that influence the global container port industry include pandemics, regulations, markets, technologies, environments, organizations, energy resources, workforces, supply-chain partners, and others. It is critical to simultaneously formulate and adapt multiple strategic plans of individual ports to the above stressors. The Port of Virginia (POV) generates 400,000 jobs, or roughly 11% of jobs across Virginia, and has an overall annual economic impact of $92 billion. POV is currently investing $800 million to expand its annual container throughput capacity by 40 percent by the end of 2020. This investment supports initiatives outlined in the port’s 2065 master plan through the investigation of different scenarios that impact emergent and future port conditions. This paper describes the most and least disruptive scenarios of emergent and future conditions, including hybrid scenarios involving the COVID-19 pandemic. The degree of disruption is measured by the changes in priorities of a port’s strategic plan, in particular for the rank order of investments by their individual contributions to the strategic goals of the port. The analysis described herein includes sixteen strategic goals, 31 strategic plan investments, and several dozen emergent and future conditions. The analysis assembles the emergent conditions into scenarios. The most disruptive scenarios are selected for contingency planning, enterprise risk management, and research & development. Seven scenarios are available for future exploration in detail: (1) Funding Decrease (2) Natural Disaster (3) Green Technologies (4) Pandemic (5) Increased Automation (6) Alternative Financing (7) Population Changes. Green Technologies, Pandemic and Alternative Financing are explored in detail in this paper. The results of this paper are thus both a methodology for any port to address its emergent and future conditions via its strategic plans, and also a case study of enterprise resilience of a major container port of the United States. The results will be of interest to port owners and operators, risk managers, transportation agencies, regulators, freight shippers, human resource managers, the military, and others.
影响全球集装箱港口行业的紧急和未来条件包括流行病、法规、市场、技术、环境、组织、能源资源、劳动力、供应链合作伙伴等。针对上述压力源,同时制定和调整各个港口的多个战略规划至关重要。弗吉尼亚港(POV)创造了40万个就业岗位,约占弗吉尼亚州就业岗位的11%,每年的总体经济影响为920亿美元。POV目前正在投资8亿美元,到2020年底将其年集装箱吞吐量扩大40%。这项投资通过对影响紧急和未来港口条件的不同情景的调查,支持港口2065年总体规划中概述的举措。本文描述了紧急情况和未来情况的最具破坏性和最小破坏性情景,包括涉及COVID-19大流行的混合情景。破坏程度是通过港口战略计划优先级的变化来衡量的,特别是通过他们对港口战略目标的个人贡献来衡量投资的排名顺序。本文所描述的分析包括16个战略目标,31个战略计划投资,以及几十个紧急和未来的条件。分析将紧急情况组合成场景。选择最具破坏性的场景进行应急计划、企业风险管理和研发。未来可详细探索七种情况:(1)资金减少(2)自然灾害(3)绿色技术(4)流行病(5)自动化程度提高(6)替代融资(7)人口变化。本文对绿色技术、流行病和替代融资进行了详细探讨。因此,本文的结果既是任何港口通过其战略计划解决其紧急和未来条件的方法,也是美国主要集装箱港口企业弹性的案例研究。研究结果将对港口所有者和运营商、风险管理人员、运输机构、监管机构、货运承运人、人力资源管理人员、军队和其他人员产生影响。

This paper describes a system for collecting and analyzing multispectral imagery to evaluate crop health and streamline vineyard management in small to medium-sized vineyards. The system consists of three main components: a sensor assembly with a multispectral camera, quadcopter with flight automation, and a web-based decision support information system for analyzing multispectral imagery. Multispectral imagery can provide a holistic view of crop health through the use of different indices. A widely used index is the Normalized Difference Vegetative Index, which uses red and near-infrared reflectance as a proxy measurement for plant health. The authors tested the system at a small vineyard located in Albemarle County, Virginia, to better inform vineyard management of existing problems and trends in primary crop and undergrowth. Preliminary findings indicate the value of using this indicator-based approach for analyzing crop health in vineyards.
本文介绍了一个用于收集和分析多光谱图像以评估作物健康和简化中小型葡萄园管理的系统。该系统由三个主要部分组成:带有多光谱相机的传感器组件,带有飞行自动化的四轴飞行器,以及用于分析多光谱图像的基于网络的决策支持信息系统。通过使用不同的指数,多光谱图像可以提供作物健康状况的整体视图。一个广泛使用的指数是归一化差异营养指数,它使用红色和近红外反射率作为植物健康的代理测量。作者在弗吉尼亚州Albemarle县的一个小葡萄园测试了该系统,以便更好地告知葡萄园管理人员初级作物和林下植物存在的问题和趋势。初步的研究结果表明,使用这种基于指标的方法来分析葡萄园的作物健康状况是有价值的。

The process of manually removing material to restore rotational balance to a rotor assembly can be time-consuming and labor-intensive. This results in the inability of tool shops and machinists to get through their queue during any current workday. In this paper, the design and creation of an automated system capable of removing material from rotor assemblies. The system will recognize inputs including part number, component dimensions, amount of material to be removed, and which surface the material will be removed from. The purpose of this system is to remove material from different planar surfaces with respect to inputs provided by the machinist. This will provide a more efficient and effective way to ensure the balance of a rotor assembly for use in the operation of an Auxiliary Power Unit (APU). Due to the complex architecture of the APU rotor assembly, a 3-axis milling technique was needed. A CNC machine was found to have the ability to move in the x, y, and z planes which would allow for the proper range of motion that is desired. In addition, the use of CNC technology was chosen due to the need for high accuracy and no conditions for complex angles. Due to the time constraints provided by the client for process completion, install, and removal a CNC design where speed can be controlled was chosen to meet these constraints. The design must be adaptable for use on varying sized rotor assemblies, it must have a removal limit of 0.001 milli ounces(moz), and run based on a code that incorporates a graphical user interface. This interface must be capable of accepting and using manual inputs along with being able to convert from one coding language to another. Initial prototyping was used to explore the accuracy and range of movement in both the x and y directions through the use of stepper motors controlled via g-code; an open-source code useful in controlling multiple stepper motors in 3 degrees of motion. Stepper motors were used due to their high torque and low speed as well as their reliability and accuracy. It was found that when given the same command repetitively the prototype was able to perform the action in the exact same manner as before making it have a high precision. The speed of the prototype was variable and cost was a little over $300 making it highly affordable. In order to interface with the CNC machine, custom software was designed and developed. After the initial testing, z-axis control was added into the design and is currently being tested. The outcome of the current prototyping phase is a system capable of moving in all three planes of motion.
手动去除材料以恢复转子组件的旋转平衡的过程可能是耗时和劳动密集型的。这导致工具商店和机械师在任何工作日都无法排队。在这篇论文中,设计和创建了一个能够从转子组件中去除材料的自动化系统。系统将识别输入,包括零件编号,部件尺寸,要移除的材料数量,以及材料将从哪个表面移除。该系统的目的是根据机械师提供的输入从不同的平面表面去除材料。这将提供一种更高效和有效的方法来确保转子组件的平衡,以用于辅助动力装置(APU)的运行。由于APU转子总成结构复杂,需要采用三轴铣削工艺。发现数控机床具有在x, y和z平面上移动的能力,这将允许所需的适当运动范围。此外,由于需要高精度和不需要复杂角度的条件,选择了使用CNC技术。由于客户提供的工艺完成、安装和拆卸的时间限制,选择了可以控制速度的CNC设计来满足这些限制。该设计必须适用于不同尺寸的转子组件,它必须具有0.001毫盎司(moz)的去除限制,并基于包含图形用户界面的代码运行。该接口必须能够接受和使用手动输入,并能够从一种编码语言转换为另一种编码语言。最初的原型是通过使用由g代码控制的步进电机来探索在x和y方向上的运动精度和范围;一个在控制多个步进电机在3度运动有用的开源代码。步进电机由于其高转矩和低转速以及可靠性和精度而被采用。人们发现,当重复给出相同的命令时,原型机能够以与之前完全相同的方式执行动作,使其具有很高的精度。原型机的速度是可变的,成本略高于300美元,这使得它非常实惠。为了实现与数控机床的接口,设计并开发了定制软件。在最初的测试之后,z轴控制被添加到设计中,目前正在测试中。当前原型阶段的结果是一个能够在所有三个运动平面上移动的系统。

A Digital Green Thumb: Neural Networks to Monitor Hydroponic Plant Growth 数字园艺高手:监测水培植物生长的神经网络

Hydroponics systems present an extraordinary opportunity to lessen the environmental impact of agriculture and increase access to fresh produce. Automated hydroponics systems contain many sensors to monitor plant growth and health, but recovering information about plant status is a non-trivial task; most methods require specialized camera hardware or extensive manually-annotated data. A common alternative is to simply take a photograph of plants using an ordinary digital camera and calculate the percentage of the image that is green, since previous research links this percentage very closely to plant biomass; however, this approach fails with anthocyanin-producing (purple) plants or night-vision (greyscale) imagery.We developed a data-driven approach with no requirement of manual annotation. For each of 20 distinct time series of green plant images, we calculated which pixels were green, a proxy for labeling which pixels were occupied by plant matter. We then converted all images to greyscale and trained convolutional neural networks, inspired by state-of-the-art object detection and image segmentation literature, to take a greyscale image and classify which pixels were originally green. We systematically compared several network architectures, including Unet, Linknet, FPN, and PSPNet, using a 34-layer ResNet architecture for the encoder and evaluated model performance by ten-fold cross-validation, training on 18 series and leaving out two per fold.We calculated cross-validated receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves for each model and achieved a maximum validation-set area under the curve (AUC) over 0.92, after only ten epochs of training from randomly-initialized weights. Time series plots of the average per-pixel predicted probability (predicted percent greenness of an image) followed the true percentages quite closely but displayed much smoother and more interpretable trends, even when the true label was very noisy. The resulting plant growth index retains the power of the simpler percent-green metric, but by design generalizes to difficult images where green is completely absent. We have therefore developed a robust and deployable monitoring system for the growth of diverse plant species in automated hydroponics systems.
水培系统提供了一个非凡的机会,以减少农业对环境的影响,增加获得新鲜农产品的机会。自动化水培系统包含许多传感器来监测植物的生长和健康,但恢复植物状态的信息是一项艰巨的任务;大多数方法需要专门的相机硬件或大量手动注释的数据。一种常见的替代方法是简单地用普通数码相机拍摄植物照片,然后计算图像中绿色的百分比,因为之前的研究将这一百分比与植物生物量密切联系在一起;然而,这种方法在产生花青素(紫色)的植物或夜视(灰度)图像中失败了。我们开发了一种不需要手动注释的数据驱动方法。对于20个不同时间序列的绿色植物图像,我们计算出哪些像素是绿色的,作为标记哪些像素被植物物质占据的代理。然后,我们将所有图像转换为灰度并训练卷积神经网络,受到最先进的物体检测和图像分割文献的启发,获取灰度图像并分类哪些像素最初是绿色的。我们系统地比较了几种网络架构,包括Unet、Linknet、FPN和PSPNet,使用34层ResNet架构作为编码器,并通过10倍交叉验证评估模型性能,在18个系列上进行训练,每隔两倍。我们计算了每个模型的交叉验证的接收者工作特征(ROC)曲线,并在随机初始化权重的10次训练后,实现了曲线下的最大验证集面积(AUC)超过0.92。平均每像素预测概率(预测图像的绿度百分比)的时间序列图非常接近真实百分比,但显示出更平滑和更可解释的趋势,即使真实标签非常嘈杂。由此产生的植物生长指数保留了更简单的绿色百分比度量的力量,但通过设计可以推广到完全没有绿色的困难图像。因此,我们开发了一个强大的、可部署的监测系统,用于自动化水培系统中不同植物物种的生长。

Clifford","doi":"10.1109/SIEDS49339.2020.9106645","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/SIEDS49339.2020.9106645","url":null,"abstract":"Hydroponics systems present an extraordinary opportunity to lessen the environmental impact of agriculture and increase access to fresh produce. Automated hydroponics systems contain many sensors to monitor plant growth and health, but recovering information about plant status is a non-trivial task; most methods require specialized camera hardware or extensive manually-annotated data. A common alternative is to simply take a photograph of plants using an ordinary digital camera and calculate the percentage of the image that is green, since previous research links this percentage very closely to plant biomass; however, this approach fails with anthocyanin-producing (purple) plants or night-vision (greyscale) imagery.We developed a data-driven approach with no requirement of manual annotation. For each of 20 distinct time series of green plant images, we calculated which pixels were green, a proxy for labeling which pixels were occupied by plant matter. We then converted all images to greyscale and trained convolutional neural networks, inspired by state-of-the-art object detection and image segmentation literature, to take a greyscale image and classify which pixels were originally green. We systematically compared several network architectures, including Unet, Linknet, FPN, and PSPNet, using a 34-layer ResNet architecture for the encoder and evaluated model performance by ten-fold cross-validation, training on 18 series and leaving out two per fold.We calculated cross-validated receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves for each model and achieved a maximum validation-set area under the curve (AUC) over 0.92, after only ten epochs of training from randomly-initialized weights. Time series plots of the average per-pixel predicted probability (predicted percent greenness of an image) followed the true percentages quite closely but displayed much smoother and more interpretable trends, even when the true label was very noisy. The resulting plant growth index retains the power of the simpler percent-green metric, but by design generalizes to difficult images where green is completely absent. We have therefore developed a robust and deployable monitoring system for the growth of diverse plant species in automated hydroponics systems.","PeriodicalId":331495,"journal":{"name":"2020 Systems and Information Engineering Design Symposium (SIEDS)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125719056","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The development and implementation of smart infrastructure raises legitimate security and privacy concerns for both the specific users of these systems as well as the public at large. The consolidation of big data through smart applications within smart infrastructure systems allows large tech companies and government entities to gather and potentially exploit the personal information of consumers. These powerful organizations collect consumer data in order to perform analysis on it, trade or sell it, or simply store it for later use. The gathering of big data or metadata, data about data, provides an opportunity for the collector to observe or predict the behaviors of specific individuals or groups. Those holding this information could use it to promote their own agendas or to otherwise exploit those from whom it has been collected without their knowledge or consent. Additionally, the current lack of legislation and policies concerning the security of smart applications or IoT devices makes the possibility of security and privacy breaches more prevalent. A breach would allow access to sensitive information which would be a threat to security and privacy at an individual and/or national scale. Due to the dynamic nature of smart infrastructure, we employed a systems analysis of this problem as a methodological approach leading to three solutions. We recommend a three-part solution-based analysis, consisting of 1.) Financial Backing 2.) Creation of Policies and Regulations and 3.) Technical Integration. This solution addresses market mitigation, data privacy for consumers, and data authentication between smart technologies and critical infrastructure. Preliminary results of this research suggest that these components are necessary for a sustainable smart infrastructure.
智能基础设施的开发和实施为这些系统的特定用户以及广大公众提出了合理的安全和隐私问题。通过智能基础设施系统内的智能应用程序整合大数据,使大型科技公司和政府实体能够收集并潜在地利用消费者的个人信息。这些强大的组织收集消费者数据,以便对其进行分析、交易或出售,或者只是存储以供以后使用。收集大数据或元数据,即关于数据的数据,为收集者提供了观察或预测特定个人或群体行为的机会。那些掌握这些信息的人可以利用这些信息来促进自己的议程,或者利用那些在不知情或未经同意的情况下收集这些信息的人。此外,目前缺乏有关智能应用程序或物联网设备安全的立法和政策,这使得安全和隐私泄露的可能性更加普遍。一个漏洞将允许访问敏感信息,这将对个人和/或国家范围的安全和隐私构成威胁。由于智能基础设施的动态性,我们对这个问题进行了系统分析,作为一种方法论方法,得出了三种解决方案。我们推荐一个基于解决方案的三部分分析,包括1.)2.财政支持3.政策法规的制定技术集成。该解决方案解决了市场缓解、消费者数据隐私以及智能技术和关键基础设施之间的数据身份验证问题。这项研究的初步结果表明,这些组件对于可持续的智能基础设施是必要的。

The nexus of robotics, autonomous systems, and artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to change the nature of human guided exploration of indoor and outdoor spaces. Such autonomous mobile robots can be incorporated into a variety of applications, ranging from logistics and maintenance, to intelligence gathering, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR). One such example is that of a tele-operator using the robot to generate a map of the inside of a building while discovering and tagging the objects of interest. During this process, the tele-operator can also assign an area for the robot to navigate autonomously or return to a previously marked area/object of interest. Search and rescue and ISR abilities could be immensely improved with such capabilities. The goal of this research is to prototype and demonstrate the above autonomous capabilities in a mobile ground robot called Explorer51. Objectives include: (i) enabling an operator to drive the robot non-line of sight to explore a space by incorporating a first-person view (FPV) system to stream data from the robot to the base station; (ii) implementing automatic collision avoidance to prevent the operator from running the robot into obstacles; (iii) creating and saving 2D and 3D maps of the space in real time by using a 2D laser scanner, tracking, and depth/RGB cameras; (iv) locating and tagging objects of interest as waypoints within the map; (v) autonomously navigate within the map to reach a chosen waypoint.To accomplish these goals, we are using the AION Robotics R1 Unmanned Ground Vehicle (UGV) rover as the platform for Explorer51 to demonstrate the autonomous features. The rover runs the Robot Operating System (ROS) onboard an NVIDIA Jetson TX2 board, connected to a Pixhawk controller. Sensors include a 2D scanning LiDAR, depth camera, tracking camera, and an IMU. Using existing ROS packages such as Cartographer and TEB planner, we plan to implement ROS nodes for accomplishing these tasks. We plan to extend the mapping ability of the rover using Visual Inertial Odometry (VIO) using the cameras. In addition, we will explore the implementation of additional features such as autonomous target identification, waypoint marking, collision avoidance, and iterative trajectory optimization. The project will culminate in a series of demonstrations to showcase the autonomous navigation, and tele-operation abilities of the robot. Success will be evaluated based on ease of use by the tele-operator, collision avoidance ability, autonomous waypoint navigation accuracy, and robust map creation at high driving speeds.
机器人、自主系统和人工智能(AI)的结合有可能改变人类引导的室内和室外空间探索的本质。这种自主移动机器人可以被整合到各种应用中,从后勤和维护到情报收集、监视和侦察(ISR)。一个这样的例子是,一个远程操作员使用机器人生成一幅建筑物内部的地图,同时发现并标记感兴趣的物体。在此过程中,远程操作员还可以为机器人分配一个区域,让机器人自主导航或返回到先前标记的区域/感兴趣的物体。有了这些能力,搜索、救援和ISR能力将得到极大的提高。这项研究的目标是在一个名为Explorer51的移动地面机器人上建立原型并展示上述自主能力。目标包括:(i)通过结合第一人称视角(FPV)系统将数据从机器人传输到基站,使操作员能够驱动机器人的非视线探索空间;(ii)实施自动避碰,防止操作员驾驶机器人撞到障碍物;(iii)通过使用2D激光扫描仪、跟踪和深度/RGB相机实时创建和保存空间的2D和3D地图;(iv)将感兴趣的目标定位并标记为地图内的航路点;(v)在地图内自主导航到达选定的航路点。为了实现这些目标,我们正在使用AION Robotics R1无人地面车辆(UGV)漫游者作为Explorer51展示自主功能的平台。探测车运行机器人操作系统(ROS),搭载NVIDIA Jetson TX2板,连接到Pixhawk控制器。传感器包括一个二维扫描激光雷达、深度相机、跟踪相机和一个IMU。使用现有的ROS包(如Cartographer和TEB planner),我们计划实现ROS节点来完成这些任务。我们计划利用相机使用视觉惯性里程计(VIO)来扩展漫游车的测绘能力。此外,我们将探索其他功能的实现,如自主目标识别、航路点标记、避免碰撞和迭代轨迹优化。该项目将在一系列展示机器人自主导航和远程操作能力的演示中达到高潮。成功与否将根据远程操作员的易用性、避免碰撞的能力、自主航路点导航的准确性以及在高速行驶时稳健的地图创建来评估。

With an increasing reliance on autonomous driving technologies, mixed traffic is expected to emerge as a dominant mode in the traffic ecosystem of the coming future, which will drastically change how the human drivers of manual vehicles perceive and interact with autonomous vehicles. From the standpoint of human-automation interaction, a question arises whether it is humans or vehicles algorithms that should adapt themselves to the myriads of traffic situations. To address this question, the current paper recruited eleven participants to a medium-fidelity driving simulation study, and collected driving performance and gaze behaviors during the planned lane changes when they were expected to cut their ways through vehicle platoons of different time headways. The results showed a varying degree of adaptive behaviors and risk attitudes from participants in response to the different headways during the lane change. Due to this large individual variation in mixed traffic interaction, highly adaptive algorithm for autonomous platoon is much desired. In this regard, some behavioral markers for planned lane change was recommended in this paper.
随着对自动驾驶技术的日益依赖,混合交通预计将成为未来交通生态系统的主导模式,这将极大地改变手动车辆驾驶员对自动驾驶车辆的感知和互动方式。从人机交互的角度来看,一个问题出现了,究竟是人类还是车辆算法应该适应无数的交通状况。为了解决这一问题,本论文招募了11名参与者进行中等保真度的驾驶模拟研究,并收集了他们在计划变道时的驾驶表现和凝视行为,当他们被期望从不同时间车头的车辆队列中超车时。结果表明,在变道过程中,受试者对不同的车道变化有不同程度的适应行为和风险态度。由于混合交通交互中存在较大的个体差异,因此需要高度自适应的自主排算法。在此基础上,提出了规划变道的行为标志。

In recent years, drones have become a practical solution for data collection in both academic and commercial fields. The use of drones allows users to collect data without disrupting the environment and keep safe from dangerous areas such as: military operations and surveillance in locations where maneuverability is difficult. The different data collected via unmanned aerial vehicles include field work GPS coordinates, environmental quality measurements, photographs/video and much more. The data collected by unmanned aerial vehicles may contain sensitive information, leading to an increased value on the security of that data. Without proper security services, information may be used in unforeseen, or even malicious ways, such as planting false information or leaking particularly sensitive data. In this paper we introduce a secure data collection method from wireless sensor nodes using autonomous unmanned aerial vehicles. We built a sensor node with multiple sensors designed to collect data for rainfall, temperature, humidity, ultra violet index, and soil moisture. Along with another sensor node with sensors used to collect data from water, we created a wireless sensor network where the sensor data was collected using an unmanned aerial vehicle. The sensor nodes collected environmental data through several sensors which are securely stored in the sensor node itself. The collected data was then transferred securely to a central node mounted on a DJI F450 Flamewheel quad-copter, which was loaded with a predetermined flight path via Mission Planner to perform the autonomous flight. Aside from previous environmental focus, technical improvements were made such as adding a solar battery to the sensor node and implementing energy efficiency in the nodes’ systems while the drone collected data autonomously during a predetermined flight path. This project served as a proof-of-concept that communication with a wireless sensor node has the capability to be deployed for data collection in remote areas efficiently and effectively while maintaining a low power and energy consumption.
近年来,无人机已成为学术和商业领域数据收集的实用解决方案。无人机的使用允许用户在不破坏环境的情况下收集数据,并确保安全远离危险区域,例如:军事行动和在机动性困难的地方进行监视。通过无人驾驶飞行器收集的不同数据包括实地工作GPS坐标、环境质量测量、照片/视频等等。无人机收集的数据可能包含敏感信息,从而增加了数据安全性的价值。如果没有适当的安全服务,信息可能会以不可预见的甚至恶意的方式被使用,例如植入虚假信息或泄露特别敏感的数据。本文介绍了一种利用自主无人机从无线传感器节点安全采集数据的方法。我们构建了一个包含多个传感器的传感器节点,用于收集降雨量、温度、湿度、紫外线指数和土壤湿度等数据。与另一个用于从水中收集数据的传感器节点一起,我们创建了一个无线传感器网络,其中使用无人驾驶飞行器收集传感器数据。传感器节点通过几个传感器收集环境数据,这些传感器安全地存储在传感器节点本身。然后,收集到的数据被安全地传输到安装在大疆F450火轮四旋翼机上的中心节点,该节点通过任务规划器加载了预定的飞行路径,以执行自主飞行。除了之前对环境的关注之外,无人机还进行了技术改进,例如在传感器节点上增加了太阳能电池,并在节点系统中实现了能源效率,同时无人机在预定的飞行路径上自主收集数据。该项目作为概念验证,与无线传感器节点的通信能够在保持低功耗和低能耗的同时,高效地部署在偏远地区进行数据收集。
