Zenuity and CERN to develop AV machine learning

Zenuity has joined forces with CERN, the European Organisation for Nuclear Research, to develop fast machine learning for autonomous vehicles (AVs). Zenuity - an autonomous driving software company - is hoping the collaboration will aid the development of AVs that can make decisions and predictions more quickly, thereby avoiding accidents.

Zenuity has joined forces with CERN, the European Organisation for Nuclear Research, to develop fast machine learning for autonomous vehicles (AVs).

Zenuity - an autonomous driving software company - is hoping the collaboration will aid the development of AVs that can make decisions and predictions more quickly, thereby avoiding accidents.

The partners will also aim to reduce the runtime and memory footprint of deep learning algorithms while minimising energy consumption and cost.

They will use CERN’s Field-Programmable Gate Arrays, a hardware solution that is expected to execute decision-making algorithms in micro-seconds for machine learning applications.

    Marysville has become the latest urban area to join DriveOhio’s programme to test connected and autonomous vehicles (C/AVs). The suburb of Ohio state capital Columbus has plans to equip 1,200 vehicles with on-board units as part of the AV pilot created earlier this year by state governor John Kasich. Columbus itself has just been the recipient of a smart cities award for its ITS programmes and is among several cities to have signed up already to DriveOhio, along with Athens and Dublin. “Self-drivi

    According to a report made by Google to the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV), one of its autonomous vehicles (AV) has been in collision with a municipal bus in California. The crash happened on Valentine’s Day, when the Lexus RX-450H was travelling in autonomous mode in the right-hand lane approaching an intersection. It moved to the far right lane to make a right turn, but stopped when it detected sand bags sitting around a storm drain and blocking its path.
