W2 (US & Asia) & W3 (Europa & Asia) - The 3rd Workshop on Localization vs. Internationalization: Accessibility of Autonomous Vehicles by Different End-Users

The elderly, children, and people with disabilities are among vulnerable users who can benefit the most from the autonomous vehicles (AVs). Yet, most AV concepts seem to focus on the mobility needs of younger and middle-aged drivers, the overeducated working population, technological enthusiasts, and above middle-class users. In that regard, this workshop aims to explore these disparities, identify the accessibility barriers and search for research approaches that can increase the accessibility opportunities of the vulnerable AV end-users.

W11  (Europe & US) / W12 (Asia) - Computational Modeling of Driving Behaviors: Challenges and Approaches

Behavior modeling has great advantages in human computer interaction research, but little research has been conducted on computational modeling of driver behavior in the AutoUI community. This workshop aims to identify the research gaps and explore solutions by forming new computational modeling special interest group at the AutoUI community.

W13 (Europe & US) / W14 (Asia & Europe) - Workshop on Human-Vehicle-Environment Cooperation in Automated driving: The Next Stage of a Classic Topic

It appears that autonomous systems are replacing human in the driving task. However, there are still many scenarios where either the automated system cannot handle the driving very well, or human wants to spontaneously influence the behavior of the system to meet their preferences. Thus, beyond the hype of autonomous driving, a large space opens for human-vehicle cooperation at a different level of automated driving. We organize this workshop to in-depth identify potential research opportunities of it under the latest technology of automated driving. In this workshop, participants will discuss the motivations of driver/passenger’s intervention, generate the use cases of cooperative driving, and explore means of cooperation and interaction that human and vehicle would exchange intent smoothly. It is expected that the workshop will consolidate existing knowledge of human-vehicle-environment cooperation and provide insight for future works..
