The high performance of IoT technology in transportation networks has led to the increasing adoption of Internet of Vehicles(IoV)technology.The functional advantages of IoV include online communication services,accident prevention,cost reduction,and enhanced traffic regularity.Despite these benefits,IoV technology is susceptible to cyber-attacks,which can exploit vulnerabilities in the vehicle network,leading to perturbations,disturbances,non-recognition of traffic signs,accidents,and vehicle immobilization.This paper reviews the state-of-the-art achievements and developments in applying Deep Transfer Learning(DTL)models for Intrusion Detection Systems in the Internet of Vehicles(IDS-IoV)based on anomaly detection.IDS-IoV leverages anomaly detection through machine learning and DTL techniques to mitigate the risks posed by cyber-attacks.These systems can autonomously create specific models based on network data to differentiate between regular traffic and cyber-attacks.Among these techniques,transfer learning models are particularly promising due to their efficacy with tagged data,reduced training time,lower memory usage,and decreased computational complexity.We evaluate DTL models against criteria including the ability to transfer knowledge,detection rate,accurate analysis of complex data,and stability.This review highlights the significant progress made in the field,showcasing how DTL models enhance the performance and reliability of IDS-IoV systems.By examining recent advancements,we provide insights into how DTL can effectively address cyber-attack challenges in IoV environments,ensuring safer and more efficient transportation networks.

A New Vehicle Detection Framework Based on Feature-Guided in the Road Scene

Vehicle detection plays a crucial role in the field of autonomous driving technology.However,directly applying deep learning-based object detection algorithms to complex road scene images often leads to subpar performance and slow inference speeds in vehicle detection.Achieving a balance between accuracy and detection speed is crucial for real-time object detection in real-world road scenes.This paper proposes a high-precision and fast vehicle detector called the feature-guided bidirectional pyramid network(FBPN).Firstly,to tackle challenges like vehicle occlusion and significant background interference,the efficient feature filtering module(EFFM)is introduced into the deep network,which amplifies the disparities between the features of the vehicle and the background.Secondly,the proposed global attention localization module(GALM)in the model neck effectively perceives the detailed position information of the target,improving both the accuracy and inference speed of themodel.Finally,the detection accuracy of small-scale vehicles is further enhanced through the utilization of a four-layer feature pyramid structure.Experimental results show that FBPN achieves an average precision of 60.8% and 97.8% on the BDD100K and KITTI datasets,respectively,with inference speeds reaching 344.83 frames/s and 357.14 frames/s.FBPN demonstrates its effectiveness and superiority by striking a balance between detection accuracy and inference speed,outperforming several state-of-the-art methods.

A Fault Detection Method for Electric Vehicle Battery System Based on Bayesian Optimization SVDD Considering a Few Faulty Samples

Accurate and reliable fault detection is essential for the safe operation of electric vehicles.Support vector data description(SVDD)has been widely used in the field of fault detection.However,constructing the hypersphere boundary only describes the distribution of unlabeled samples,while the distribution of faulty samples cannot be effectively described and easilymisses detecting faulty data due to the imbalance of sample distribution.Meanwhile,selecting parameters is critical to the detection performance,and empirical parameterization is generally timeconsuming and laborious and may not result in finding the optimal parameters.Therefore,this paper proposes a semi-supervised data-driven method based on which the SVDD algorithm is improved and achieves excellent fault detection performance.By incorporating faulty samples into the underlying SVDD model,training deals better with the problem of missing detection of faulty samples caused by the imbalance in the distribution of abnormal samples,and the hypersphere boundary ismodified to classify the samplesmore accurately.The Bayesian Optimization NSVDD(BO-NSVDD)model was constructed to quickly and accurately optimize hyperparameter combinations.In the experiments,electric vehicle operation data with four common fault types are used to evaluate the performance with other five models,and the results show that the BO-NSVDD model presents superior detection performance for each type of fault data,especially in the imperceptible early and minor faults,which has seen very obvious advantages.Finally,the strong robustness of the proposed method is verified by adding different intensities of noise in the dataset.

Intelligent vehicle tracking and detection are crucial tasks in the realm of highway management.However,vehicles come in a range of sizes,which is challenging to detect,affecting the traffic monitoring system’s overall accuracy.Deep learning is considered to be an efficient method for object detection in vision-based systems.In this paper,we proposed a vision-based vehicle detection and tracking system based on a You Look Only Once version 5(YOLOv5)detector combined with a segmentation technique.The model consists of six steps.In the first step,all the extracted traffic sequence images are subjected to pre-processing to remove noise and enhance the contrast level of the images.These pre-processed images are segmented by labelling each pixel to extract the uniform regions to aid the detection phase.A single-stage detector YOLOv5 is used to detect and locate vehicles in images.Each detection was exposed to Speeded Up Robust Feature(SURF)feature extraction to track multiple vehicles.Based on this,a unique number is assigned to each vehicle to easily locate them in the succeeding image frames by extracting them using the feature-matching technique.Further,we implemented a Kalman filter to track multiple vehicles.In the end,the vehicle path is estimated by using the centroid points of the rectangular bounding box predicted by the tracking algorithm.The experimental results and comparison reveal that our proposed vehicle detection and tracking system outperformed other state-of-the-art systems.The proposed implemented system provided 94.1%detection precision for Roundabout and 96.1%detection precision for Vehicle Aerial Imaging from Drone(VAID)datasets,respectively.

Globally traffic signs are used by all countries for healthier traffic flow and to protect drivers and pedestrians.Consequently,traffic signs have been of great importance for every civilized country,which makes researchers give more focus on the automatic detection of traffic signs.Detecting these traffic signs is challenging due to being in the dark,far away,partially occluded,and affected by the lighting or the presence of similar objects.An innovative traffic sign detection method for red and blue signs in color images is proposed to resolve these issues.This technique aimed to devise an efficient,robust and accurate approach.To attain this,initially,the approach presented a new formula,inspired by existing work,to enhance the image using red and green channels instead of blue,which segmented using a threshold calculated from the correlational property of the image.Next,a new set of features is proposed,motivated by existing features.Texture and color features are fused after getting extracted on the channel of Red,Green,and Blue(RGB),Hue,Saturation,and Value(HSV),and YCbCr color models of images.Later,the set of features is employed on different classification frameworks,from which quadratic support vector machine(SVM)outnumbered the others with an accuracy of 98.5%.The proposed method is tested on German Traffic Sign Detection Benchmark(GTSDB)images.The results are satisfactory when compared to the preceding work.

Pedestrian and Vehicle Detection Based on Pruning YOLOv4 with Cloud-Edge Collaboration

Nowadays,the rapid development of edge computing has driven an increasing number of deep learning applications deployed at the edge of the network,such as pedestrian and vehicle detection,to provide efficient intelligent services to mobile users.However,as the accuracy requirements continue to increase,the components of deep learning models for pedestrian and vehicle detection,such as YOLOv4,become more sophisticated and the computing resources required for model training are increasing dramatically,which in turn leads to significant challenges in achieving effective deployment on resource-constrained edge devices while ensuring the high accuracy performance.For addressing this challenge,a cloud-edge collaboration-based pedestrian and vehicle detection framework is proposed in this paper,which enables sufficient training of models by utilizing the abundant computing resources in the cloud,and then deploying the well-trained models on edge devices,thus reducing the computing resource requirements for model training on edge devices.Furthermore,to reduce the size of the model deployed on edge devices,an automatic pruning method combines the convolution layer and BN layer is proposed to compress the pedestrian and vehicle detection model size.Experimental results show that the framework proposed in this paper is able to deploy the pruned model on a real edge device,Jetson TX2,with 6.72 times higher FPS.Meanwhile,the channel pruning reduces the volume and the number of parameters to 96.77%for the model,and the computing amount is reduced to 81.37%.

3D Vehicle Detection Algorithm Based onMultimodal Decision-Level Fusion

3D vehicle detection based on LiDAR-camera fusion is becoming an emerging research topic in autonomous driving.The algorithm based on the Camera-LiDAR object candidate fusion method(CLOCs)is currently considered to be a more effective decision-level fusion algorithm,but it does not fully utilize the extracted features of 3D and 2D.Therefore,we proposed a 3D vehicle detection algorithm based onmultimodal decision-level fusion.First,project the anchor point of the 3D detection bounding box into the 2D image,calculate the distance between 2D and 3D anchor points,and use this distance as a new fusion feature to enhance the feature redundancy of the network.Subsequently,add an attention module:squeeze-and-excitation networks,weight each feature channel to enhance the important features of the network,and suppress useless features.The experimental results show that the mean average precision of the algorithm in the KITTI dataset is 82.96%,which outperforms previous state-ofthe-art multimodal fusion-based methods,and the average accuracy in the Easy,Moderate and Hard evaluation indicators reaches 88.96%,82.60%,and 77.31%,respectively,which are higher compared to the original CLOCs model by 1.02%,2.29%,and 0.41%,respectively.Compared with the original CLOCs algorithm,our algorithm has higher accuracy and better performance in 3D vehicle detection.

A Novel Ego Lanes Detection Method for Autonomous Vehicles

Autonomous vehicles are currently regarded as an interesting topic in the AI field.For such vehicles,the lane where they are traveling should be detected.Most lane detection methods identify the whole road area with all the lanes built on it.In addition to having a low accuracy rate and slow processing time,these methods require costly hardware and training datasets,and they fail under critical conditions.In this study,a novel detection algo-rithm for a lane where a car is currently traveling is proposed by combining simple traditional image processing with lightweight machine learning(ML)methods.First,a preparation phase removes all unwanted information to preserve the topographical representations of virtual edges within a one-pixel width around expected lanes.Then,a simple feature extraction phase obtains only the intersection point position and angle degree of each candidate edge.Subsequently,a proposed scheme that comprises consecutive lightweight ML models is applied to detect the correct lane by using the extracted features.This scheme is based on the density-based spatial clustering of applications with noise,random forest trees,a neural network,and rule-based methods.To increase accuracy and reduce processing time,each model supports the next one during detection.When a model detects a lane,the subsequent models are skipped.The models are trained on the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology and Toyota Technological Institute datasets.Results show that the proposed method is faster and achieves higher accuracy than state-of-the-art methods.This method is simple,can handle degradation conditions,and requires low-cost hardware and training datasets.

In view of the complex marine environment of navigation,especially in the case of multiple static and dynamic obstacles,the traditional obstacle avoidance algorithms applied to unmanned surface vehicles(USV)are prone to fall into the trap of local optimization.Therefore,this paper proposes an improved artificial potential field(APF)algorithm,which uses 5G communication technology to communicate between the USV and the control center.The algorithm introduces the USV discrimination mechanism to avoid the USV falling into local optimization when the USV encounter different obstacles in different scenarios.Considering the various scenarios between the USV and other dynamic obstacles such as vessels in the process of performing tasks,the algorithm introduces the concept of dynamic artificial potential field.For the multiple obstacles encountered in the process of USV sailing,based on the International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea(COLREGS),the USV determines whether the next step will fall into local optimization through the discriminationmechanism.The local potential field of the USV will dynamically adjust,and the reverse virtual gravitational potential field will be added to prevent it from falling into the local optimization and avoid collisions.The objective function and cost function are designed at the same time,so that the USV can smoothly switch between the global path and the local obstacle avoidance.The simulation results show that the improved APF algorithm proposed in this paper can successfully avoid various obstacles in the complex marine environment,and take navigation time and economic cost into account.
