- Abstract: The adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) have proven to be a crucial factor to
decreasing the emission of greenhouse gases (GHG) into the atmosphere. However,
there are various hurdles that impede people from purchasing EVs. For example,
long charging time, short driving range, cost and insufficient charging
infrastructures available, etc. This article reports the public perception of
EV-adoption using statistical analyses and proposes some recommendations for
improving EV-adoption in Qatar. User perspectives on EV-adoption barriers in
Qatar were investigated based on survey questionnaires. The survey
questionnaires were based on similar studies done in other regions of the
world. The study attempted to look at different perspectives of the adoption of
EV, when asked to a person who is aware of EVs or a person who may or may not
be aware of EVs. Cumulative survey responses from the two groups were compared
and analyzed using a two sample t-test statistical analysis. Detailed analyses
showed that among various major hindrances raising of public awareness of such
greener modes of transportation, the availability of charging options in more
places and policy incentives towards EVs would play a major role in
EV-adoption. The authors provide recommendations that along with government
incentives could help make a gradual shift to a greater number of EVs
convenient for people of Qatar. The proposed systematic approach for such a
study and analysis may help in streamlining research on policies,
infrastructures and technologies for efficient penetration of EVs in Qatar.

Learning powerful representations in bird's-eye-view (BEV) for perception tasks is trending and drawing extensive attention both from industry and academia.
As sensor configurations get more complex, integrating multi-source information from different sensors and representing features in a unified view come of vital importance.
The core problems for BEV perception lie in (a) how to reconstruct the lost 3D information via view transformation from perspective view to BEV; (b) how to acquire ground truth annotations in BEV grid; and (d) how to adapt and generalize algorithms as sensor configurations vary across different scenarios.
