RESUMO
Intelligent connected vehicles (ICVs) have played an important role in improving the intelligence degree of transportation systems, and improving the trajectory prediction capability of ICVs is beneficial for traffic efficiency and safety. In this paper, a real-time trajectory prediction method based on vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication is proposed for ICVs to improve the accuracy of their trajectory prediction. Firstly, this paper applies a Gaussian mixture probability hypothesis density (GM-PHD) model to construct the multidimension dataset of ICV states. Secondly, this paper adopts vehicular microscopic data with more dimensions, which is output by GM-PHD as the input of LSTM to ensure the consistency of the prediction results. Then, the signal light factor and Q-Learning algorithm were applied to improve the LSTM model, adding features in the spatial dimension to complement the temporal features used in the LSTM. When compared with the previous models, more consideration was given to the dynamic spatial environment. Finally, an intersection at Fushi Road in Shijingshan District, Beijing, was selected as the field test scenario. The final experimental results show that the GM-PHD model achieved an average error of 0.1181 m, which is a 44.05% reduction compared to the LiDAR-based model. Meanwhile, the error of the proposed model can reach 0.501 m. When compared to the social LSTM model, the prediction error was reduced by 29.43% under the average displacement error (ADE) metric. The proposed method can provide data support and an effective theoretical basis for decision systems to improve traffic safety.
RESUMO
Industry 4.0 smart manufacturing systems are equipped with sensors, smart machines, and intelligent robots. The automated in-plant transportation of manufacturing parts through throwing and catching robots is an attempt to accelerate the transportation process and increase productivity by the optimized utilization of in-plant facilities. Such an approach requires intelligent tracking and prediction of the final 3D catching position of thrown objects, while observing their initial flight trajectory in real-time, by catching robot in order to grasp them accurately. Due to non-deterministic nature of such mechanically thrown objects' flight, accurate prediction of their complete trajectory is only possible if we accurately observe initial trajectory as well as intelligently predict remaining trajectory. The thrown objects in industry can be of any shape but detecting and accurately predicting interception positions of any shape object is an extremely challenging problem that needs to be solved step by step. In this research work, we only considered spherical shape objects as their3D central position can be easily determined. Our work comprised of development of a 3D simulated environment which enabled us to throw object of any mass, diameter, or surface air friction properties in a controlled internal logistics environment. It also enabled us to throw object with any initial velocity and observe its trajectory by placing a simulated pinhole camera at any place within 3D vicinity of internal logistics. We also employed multi-view geometry among simulated cameras in order to observe trajectories more accurately. Hence, it provided us an ample opportunity of precise experimentation in order to create enormous dataset of thrown object trajectories to train an encoder-decoder bidirectional LSTM deep neural network. The trained neural network has given the best results for accurately predicting trajectory of thrown objects in real time.
