Continuous estimation the drivers take-over readiness is critical for safe and timely transfer of control during the failure modes of autonomous vehicles. In this paper, we propose a data-driven approach for estimating the drivers take-over readiness based purely on observable cues from in-vehicle vision sensors. We present an extensive naturalistic drive dataset of drivers in a conditionally autonomous vehicle running on Californian freeways. We collect subjective ratings for the drivers take-over readiness from multiple human observers viewing the sensor feed. Analysis of the ratings in terms of intra-class correlation coefficients (ICCs) shows a high degree of consistency in the ratings across raters. We define a metric for the drivers take-over readiness termed the Observable Readiness Index (ORI) based on the ratings. Finally, we propose an LSTM model for continuous estimation of the drivers ORI based on a holistic representation of the drivers state, capturing gaze, hand, pose and foot activity. Our model estimates the ORI with a mean absolute error of 0.449 on a 5 point scale.

With increasing automation in passenger vehicles, the study of safe and smooth occupant-vehicle interaction and control transitions is key. In this study, we focus on the development of contextual, semantically meaningful representations of the drive
r state, which can then be used to determine the appropriate timing and conditions for transfer of control between driver and vehicle. To this end, we conduct a large-scale real-world controlled data study where participants are instructed to take-over control from an autonomous agent under different driving conditions while engaged in a variety of distracting activities. These take-over events are captured using multiple driver-facing cameras, which when labelled result in a dataset of control transitions and their corresponding take-over times (TOTs). We then develop and train TOT models that operate sequentially on mid to high-level features produced by computer vision algorithms operating on different driver-facing camera views. The proposed TOT model produces continuous predictions of take-over times without delay, and shows promising qualitative and quantitative results in complex real-world scenarios.
Understanding occupant-vehicle interactions by modeling control transitions is important to ensure safe approaches to passenger vehicle automation. Models which contain contextual, semantically meaningful representations of driver states can be used
to determine the appropriate timing and conditions for transfer of control between driver and vehicle. However, such models rely on real-world control take-over data from drivers engaged in distracting activities, which is costly to collect. Here, we introduce a scheme for data augmentation for such a dataset. Using the augmented dataset, we develop and train take-over time (TOT) models that operate sequentially on mid and high-level features produced by computer vision algorithms operating on different driver-facing camera views, showing models trained on the augmented dataset to outperform the initial dataset. The demonstrated model features encode different aspects of the driver state, pertaining to the face, hands, foot and upper body of the driver. We perform ablative experiments on feature combinations as well as model architectures, showing that a TOT model supported by augmented data can be used to produce continuous estimates of take-over times without delay, suitable for complex real-world scenarios.
Pedestrians are arguably one of the most safety-critical road users to consider for autonomous vehicles in urban areas. In this paper, we address the problem of jointly detecting pedestrians and recognizing 32 pedestrian attributes from a single imag
e. These encompass visual appearance and behavior, and also include the forecasting of road crossing, which is a main safety concern. For this, we introduce a Multi-Task Learning (MTL) model relying on a composite field framework, which achieves both goals in an efficient way. Each field spatially locates pedestrian instances and aggregates attribute predictions over them. This formulation naturally leverages spatial context, making it well suited to low resolution scenarios such as autonomous driving. By increasing the number of attributes jointly learned, we highlight an issue related to the scales of gradients, which arises in MTL with numerous tasks. We solve it by normalizing the gradients coming from different objective functions when they join at the fork in the network architecture during the backward pass, referred to as fork-normalization. Experimental validation is performed on JAAD, a dataset providing numerous attributes for pedestrian analysis from autonomous vehicles, and shows competitive detection and attribute recognition results, as well as a more stable MTL training.
The task of visual grounding requires locating the most relevant region or object in an image, given a natural language query. So far, progress on this task was mostly measured on curated datasets, which are not always representative of human spoken
language. In this work, we deviate from recent, popular task settings and consider the problem under an autonomous vehicle scenario. In particular, we consider a situation where passengers can give free-form natural language commands to a vehicle which can be associated with an object in the street scene. To stimulate research on this topic, we have organized the emph{Commands for Autonomous Vehicles} (C4AV) challenge based on the recent emph{Talk2Car} dataset (URL: https://www.aicrowd.com/challenges/eccv-2020-commands-4-autonomous-vehicles). This paper presents the results of the challenge. First, we compare the used benchmark against existing datasets for visual grounding. Second, we identify the aspects that render top-performing models successful, and relate them to existing state-of-the-art models for visual grounding, in addition to detecting potential failure cases by evaluating on carefully selected subsets. Finally, we discuss several possibilities for future work.
Current vision systems are trained on huge datasets, and these datasets come with costs: curation is expensive, they inherit human biases, and there are concerns over privacy and usage rights. To counter these costs, interest has surged in learning f
rom cheaper data sources, such as unlabeled images. In this paper we go a step further and ask if we can do away with real image datasets entirely, instead learning from noise processes. We investigate a suite of image generation models that produce images from simple random processes. These are then used as training data for a visual representation learner with a contrastive loss. We study two types of noise processes, statistical image models and deep generative models under different random initializations. Our findings show that it is important for the noise to capture certain structural properties of real data but that good performance can be achieved even with processes that are far from realistic. We also find that diversity is a key property to learn good representations. Datasets, models, and code are available at https://mbaradad.github.io/learning_with_noise.
