Call for Papers Special Session(JCNN-09): Intelligent Vehicle and Transportation Systems

With WCCI 2016, July 25-29, 2016, Vancouver, Canada

The research and development of intelligent vehicles and transportation systems are rapidly growing worldwide. Intelligent transportation systems are making transformative changes in all aspects of surface transportation based on vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) and vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) connectivity. With the decreasing sensor costs and computer chips, and increasing computing power and data storage capacity, it has become practical to build a host of intelligent devices in cars that can be used in airbag control, unwelcome intrusion detection, collision warning and avoidance, power management and navigation, driver alertness monitoring etc. Computational intelligence plays a vital role in building all types and levels of intelligence in vehicle and transportation systems.

The objective of this special session is to provide a forum for researchers and practitioners to present advanced research in computational intelligence with a focus on innovative applications to intelligent vehicle and transportation systems. This session seeks contribution on the latest developments and emerging research in all aspects of intelligent vehicle and transportation systems. Specific topics for the session include, but are not limited to:

• Advanced transportation information and communication systems
• Cloud computing and big data in transportation and vehicle systems
• Multimodal intelligent transport systems and services
• Personalized driver and traveler support systems
• Pervasive and ubiquitous computing in logistics
• Simulation and forecasting models
• Spatio-temporal traffic pattern recognition
• Connected vehicles
• Air, Road, and Rail Traffic Management
• Advanced Transportation Management
• Collision detection and avoidance 
• vehicle communications and connectivity
• Driver state detection and monitoring
• Driver assistance and automation systems
• Vehicle fault diagnostics and health monitoring
• Automated driving and driverless car
• Learning and adaptive Control 
• Object recognitions such as pedestrian detection, traffic sign detection and recognition
• Route guidance systems
• Trip modeling and driver speed prediction
• Vehicle energy management and optimization in hybrid vehicles
