Enhanced Emotion Enabled Cognitive Agent Based Rear End Collision Avoidance Controller for Autonomous Vehicles Faisal Riaz, Muaz A. Niazi Dept. Of Computing-Iqra University, Islamabad, Pakistan Dept. Of Computer Sciences-COMSATS, Islamabad, Pakistan Email: [email protected], *[email protected] Abstract Rear end collisions are deadliest in nature and cause most of traffic casualties and injuries. In the existing research, many rear end collision avoidance solutions have been proposed. However, the problem with these proposed solutions is that they are highly dependent on precise mathematical models. Whereas, the real road driving is influenced by non-linear factors such as road surface situations, driver reaction time, pedestrian flow and vehicle dynamics, hence obtaining the accurate mathematical model of the vehicle control system is challenging. This problem with precise control based rear end collision avoidance schemes has been addressed using fuzzy logic, but the excessive number of fuzzy rules straightforwardly prejudice their efficiency. Furthermore, these fuzzy logic based controllers have been proposed without using proper agent based modeling that helps in mimicking the functions of an artificial human driver executing these fuzzy rules. Keeping in view these limitations, we have proposed an Enhanced Emotion Enabled Cognitive Agent (EEEC_Agent) based controller that helps the Autonomous Vehicles (AVs) to perform rear end collision avoidance with less number of rules, designed after fear emotion, and high efficiency. To introduce a fear emotion generation mechanism in EEEC_Agent, Orton, Clore & Collins (OCC) model has been employed. The fear generation mechanism of EEEC_Agent has been verified using NetLogo simulation. Furthermore, practical validation of EEEC_Agent functions has been performed using specially built prototype AV platform. Eventually, the qualitative comparative study with existing state of the art research works reflect that proposed model outperforms recent research.

Towards social autonomous vehicles: Efficient collision avoidance scheme using Richardson’s arms race model

This paper presents the concept of a social autonomous agent to conceptualize such Autonomous Vehicles (AVs), which interacts with other AVs using social manners similar to human behavior. The presented AVs also have the capability of predicting intentions, i.e. mentalizing and copying the actions of each other, i.e. mirroring. Exploratory Agent Based Modeling (EABM) level of the Cognitive Agen...

Validation of Enhanced Emotion Enabled Cognitive Agent Using Virtual Overlay Multi-Agent System Approach

Making roads safer by avoiding road collisions is one of the main reasons for inventing Autonomous vehicles (AVs). In this context, designing agent-based collision avoidance components of AVs which truly represent human cognition and emotions look is a more feasible approach as agents can replace human drivers. However, to the best of our knowledge, very few human emotion and cognition-inspired...
