Acquiring and processing video streams from static cameras has been proposed as one of
the most efficient tools for visualizing and gathering traffic information. With the latest …

Inexpensive fixed wing UAV are increasingly useful in remote sensing operations. They are
a cheaper alternative to manned vehicles, and are ideally suited for dangerous or …

The unmanned aerial system (UAS), as an emerging technology that can be used as a
vehicle in a variety of settings, has the potential to strongly affect safety performance. UASs …

Despite studies exploring potential applications of unmanned aerial systems (UASs), the
particular use and value of visual assets (photographs or video) collected with UASs for …

An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) has many applications in a variety of fields. Detection
and tracking of a specific road in UAV videos play an important role in automatic UAV …

Abstract The United States Department of Transportation (DOT) has been interested for the
past several years in obtaining data on traffic trends and to monitor and control traffic in …

A well-known path-planning technique for mobile robots or planar aerial vehicles is to use
Dubins paths, which are minimum-distance paths between two configurations subject to the …

We present a system consisting of a miniature unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) and a small
carrier vehicle, in which the UAV is capable of autonomously starting from the moving …

In this paper, a nonlinear model predictive control (NMPC) is used to design a high-level
controller for a fixed-wing unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). Given the kinematic model of the …

Deep neural networks (DNNs) are increasingly used in safety-critical autonomous systems
as perception components processing high-dimensional image data. Formal analysis of …
