Intention recognition infers an agent’s intent from past actions, crucial for predicting behaviors such as driving maneuvers.

RISE’s Contribution

RISE has developed advanced hybrid AI algorithms for these capabilities for both autonomous and human-driven vehicles.

Applications

Accurate intention prediction enables:

  • Safer autonomous vehicle operation
  • Better driver assistance systems
  • Improved traffic flow optimization

Impact

By understanding what other road users intend to do, vehicles can make safer and more efficient decisions, reducing accidents and improving transportation systems.
