• Title: Towards Selection and Transition Between Behavior-Based Neural Networks for Automated Driving
• Authors: Iqra Aslam, Igor Anpilogov, Andreas Rausch,
• Abstract summary: This paper presents a new solution a Behavior Selector that uses multiple smaller artificial neural networks (ANNs) to manage different driving tasks. Rather than relying on a single large network, which can be burdensome, require extensive training data, and is hard to understand. We focus on ensuring smooth transitions between behaviors while considering the vehicles current speed and orientation to improve stability and safety.

• Abstract: Autonomous driving technology is progressing rapidly, largely due to complex End To End systems based on deep neural networks. While these systems are effective, their complexity can make it difficult to understand their behavior, raising safety concerns. This paper presents a new solution a Behavior Selector that uses multiple smaller artificial neural networks (ANNs) to manage different driving tasks, such as lane following and turning. Rather than relying on a single large network, which can be burdensome, require extensive training data, and is hard to understand, the developed approach allows the system to dynamically select the appropriate neural network for each specific behavior (e.g., turns) in real time. We focus on ensuring smooth transitions between behaviors while considering the vehicles current speed and orientation to improve stability and safety. The proposed system has been tested using the AirSim simulation environment, demonstrating its effectiveness.

  NaviSlim is a new class of neural navigation models capable of adapting the amount of resources spent on computing and sensing. NaviSlim is designed as a gated slimmable neural network architecture that, different from existing slimmable networks, can dynamically select a slimming factor to autonomously scale model complexity. We evaluate our NaviSlim models on scenarios with varying difficulty and a test set that showed a dynamic reduced model complexity on average between 57-92%, and between 61-80% sensor utilization.
