SUMMARY:TECoSA Seminar - Holistic perspectives on safety of Automated Driving Systems
DESCRIPTION:We aim to bring you a TECoSA Seminar on the first Thursday of each month during term-time.  All are welcome to attend and we look forward to some lively discussions. Members can accept the Outlook invitations\, non-members can email tecosa-admin@kth.se to register.\nThe recording from this seminar is available here.  \nOur November seminar is with Magnus Gyllenhammar\, Industrial PHD Student at Zenseact. The seminar will take place at Gladan\, KTH. Click here to register for the physical event. It will also be possible to attend via Zoom.  \nABSTRACT: In recent years\, enormous investments in Automated Driving Systems (ADSs) have distinctly advanced ADS technologies. Despite promises made by several high profile auto-makers\, it has however become clear that the challenges involved for deploying ADS have been drastically underestimated.Contrary to previous generations of automotive systems\, common design\, development\, verification and validation methods for safety critical systems do not suffice to cope with the increased complexity and operational uncertainties of an ADS. In this talk I will present the key findings from a review paper conducted with the aim to provide an understanding of existing methods for providing safety evidence and\, in particular\, identifying the associated challenges and gaps pertaining to the use of each method. Four categories of methods: design techniques\, verification and validation methods\, run-time risk assessment\, and run-time (self-)adaptation\, are presented and the eight challenges (identified in the paper) help provide insights into a selection of the reviewed methods. Finally\, the derived set of research gaps will be discussed. \n\nThe talk is based on the results of a review paper currently in submission – an early preprint-version of which can be found at: https://www.techrxiv.org/doi/full/10.36227/techrxiv.20331243.v1 \n  \n\nBIO: Magnus Gyllenhammar pursues a PhD at KTH Royal Institute of Technology as part of his employment at Zenseact\, Gothenburg\, Sweden. His research focuses on finding efficient strategies for safety argumentation of ADSs\, especially focusing on precautionary safety and dynamic risk assessment in relation to the fulfilment of a quantitative risk norm. He received his MSc. in Engineering Physics\, major in Complex Adaptive System\, from Chalmers University of Technology\, in 2016. In 2018\, he joined Zenseact (then Zenuity) and has since worked on creating and realising data-driven strategies for verification and safety argumentation of ADSs.

SUMMARY:TECoSA Seminar - Radio Positioning in 6G Communication Systems
DESCRIPTION:We aim to bring you a TECoSA Seminar on the first Thursday of each month during term-time.  All are welcome to attend and we look forward to some lively discussions. Members can accept the Outlook invitations\, non-members can email tecosa-admin@kth.se to register.\nOur guest speaker for May is Marina Petrova\, Professor of Wireless Communications with RWTH Aachen\, and a Visiting Professor with the School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science\, KTH.  The session will be given via Zoom (https://kth-se.zoom.us/j/66857695267). \nABSTACT: Enabling sensing functionality with cellular network infrastructure is envisioned as one of the disruptive features of the sixth-generation (6G) networks. By doing so\, future networks will be able to “see” the physical world through radio imaging and measuring the surrounding environment\, and offer advanced location-aware services and applications. Joint design of communication and sensing in a so called Integrated Communication and Sensing  (ICaS) system requires careful optimization of the available system resources between the two functions to meet their respective target requirements. In this talk\, I will first motivate and present the background of ICaS systems. Thereafter I will highlight our latest research results on a 5G New Radio (NR)-based cooperative multi-monostatic sensing framework for passive target localization. Our fusion-based estimation process can mitigate the effect of multipath and increase the localization accuracy in a bandwidth limited scenario. Finally\, I will conclude the talk by identifying and discussing major open challenges and future directions in designing ICaS systems. \nBIO: Marina Petrova received the Diploma degree in electronics engineering and telecommunications from Ss. Cyril and Methodius University\, Skopje\, North Macedonia and the Ph.D. degree in electrical engineering from RWTH Aachen University\, Aachen\, Germany.

SUMMARY:TECoSA Research Seminar: Learn and Align RL Policies from Human Feedback
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Daniel Simões Marta\, TECoSA PhD student\n(Venue\, Zoom link and sign-up link circulated to members)\nPlease email vickid@kth.se if you have any questions. \nABSTRACT: Reinforcement learning from informed by human feedback (RLHF) has emerged as a novel domain in machine learning\, where human insights are crucial in shaping the behavior of an AI agent. Within this domain\, a significant strategy is preference-based reinforcement learning\, in which a human-informed reward system is developed through the evaluation and selection among different sets of action sequences. In this talk\, I will present several works conducted by our group on aligning RL policies with human feedback. I will primarily focus on aligning relevant features such as safety and perceived safety—even though the work can be extended to any desired feature—and will discuss the application of these principles in the context of RL policies. Additionally\, I will provide concrete examples of leveraging human intrinsic knowledge through methods such as ranking\, stating preferences\, and analyzing text.

SUMMARY:TECoSA Seminar - Learning Optimal Edge Processing with Offloading and Energy Harvesting
DESCRIPTION:We aim to bring you a TECoSA Seminar on the first Thursday of each month during term-time.  All are welcome to attend and we look forward to some lively discussions. Members can accept the Outlook invitations\, non-members can email tecosa-admin@kth.se to register.\nOur guest speaker for November is Francesco De Pellegrini\, Professor of networking and AI at the University of Avignon\, France.  The seminar will take place via Zoom (https://kth-se.zoom.us/j/66857695267). \nABSTRACT:  Modern portable devices can execute increasingly sophisticated AI models on sensed data. The complexity of such processing tasks is data-dependent and has relevant energy cost. This work develops an Age of Information markovian model for a system where multiple battery-operated devices perform data processing and energy harvesting in parallel. Part of their computational burden is offloaded to an edge server which polls devices at given rate. The structural properties of an optimal policy for a single device-server system are derived. They permit to define a new model-free reinforcement learning method specialized for monotone policies\, namely Ordered Q-Learning\, providing a fast procedure to learn the optimal policy. The method is oblivious to the devices’ battery capacities\, the cost and the value of data batch processing and to the dynamics of the energy harvesting process. Finally\, the polling strategy of the server is optimized by combining this policy improvement technique with stochastic approximation methods. Extensive numerical results provide insight into the system properties and demonstrate that the proposed learning algorithms outperform existing baselines. \nBIO: Francesco De Pellegrini received the MSc 2000\, and the Ph.D. 2004\, in Information Engineering at the University of Padova\, Italy. He is currently full professor at the University of Avignon\, where he teaches networking and artificial intelligence  He has published 100+ papers in major conferences and journals of computer science\, networking and control theory. He applies algorithms on graphs\, stochastic and control\, and game theory for the design and perfomance evaluation of wireless and wired networked systems.

SUMMARY:TECoSA Seminar - Safety Challenges for Automated Vehicles in the Absence of Connectivity
DESCRIPTION:We aim to bring you a TECoSA Seminar on the first Thursday of each month during term-time.  All are welcome to attend and we look forward to some lively discussions. Members can accept the Outlook invitations\, non-members can email tecosa-admin@kth.se to register.\nOur September seminar is with Dr Akhil Shetty\, postdoctoral researcher at UC Berkeley Department of Mechanical Systems.  The session will be given via Zoom (https://kth-se.zoom.us/j/66857695267). \nABSTRACT:  Automated vehicles (AVs) are expected to create a future with effortless driving and virtually no traffic accidents. AV companies claim that\, when fully developed\, the technology will eliminate all crashes caused due to human error. Indeed\, AVs will likely avoid the large number of crashes caused by impaired\, distracted or reckless drivers. But there remains a significant proportion of crashes for which no driver is directly responsible. In particular\, the absence of connectivity of an AV with its neighboring vehicles (V2V) and the infrastructure (I2V) leads to a lack of information that can induce such crashes. In this talk\, I will present prototypical examples motivated by the NHTSA pre-crash scenario typology to show that fully autonomous vehicles cannot guarantee safety in the absence of connectivity. Since AV designs today do not require such connectivity\, these crashes would persist in the future. Combining theoretical models and empirical data\, I will also argue why such hazardous scenarios would occur with a significantly high probability. Our work suggests that incorporating connectivity is a prerequisite for a safe AV future.  \nBIO: Akhil Shetty is a postdoctoral researcher in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at UC Berkeley. He completed his Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences at UC Berkeley advised by Prof. Kameshwar Poolla and Prof. Pravin Varaiya. He received his B.Tech and M.Tech degrees in Electrical Engineering from IIT Bombay. Akhil is a recipient of the Berkeley Graduate Fellowship for doctoral studies at UC Berkeley. He received the Best Student Paper Award at ITSC 2020\, and was a finalist for Best Student Paper at ECC 2018 and SPCOM 2014. He is interested in applying tools from optimization\, control\, and statistics to tackle problems in the fields of energy and intelligent transportation systems.

SUMMARY:TECoSA Seminar - Computation offloading in Edge and cloud environment: Survey\, taxonomy\, applications and open challenges
DESCRIPTION:We aim to bring you a TECoSA Seminar on the first Thursday of each month during term-time. For Spring 2023\, the talks will be on-line or hybrid. All are welcome to attend and we look forward to some lively discussions. Members can accept the invitations\, non-members can email tecosa-admin@kth.se to register.\nOur June seminar is with Ali Balador\, senior researcher and project manager at Ericsson Research.\nThe Zoom link is https://kth-se.zoom.us/j/66857695267. \nABSTRACT:  With the rapid development in the area of Internet of Things (IoT)\, the number of delay-sensitive and computationally intensive IoT applications has drastically increased recently. The resource-constrained nature of the IoT devices\, different characteristics of IoT tasks such as delay sensitivity\, and heterogeneity of the edge cloud servers make the task offloading problem an important challenge in the edge cloud continuum. Offloading can be defined as a mechanism to move the processing or computation from one device to another with more suitable capabilities. The main goal is to move resource-intensive tasks from a device with limited resources to an edge server or cloud server to achieve performance objectives\, such as reducing overall computation time\, minimizing network resources usage\, maximizing battery life. \nOffloading is a flexible mechanism whose implementation depends on use cases or situations. For this reason\, it is very important to study different application domains and use cases to find out which use cases are the most promising and can get benefit of offloading. In this presentation\, I will explore different application domains and use cases and explain why offloading is beneficial. I will also show an offloading taxonomy that helps to understand that flexibility and identify which are the most relevant offloading configurations for different application domains and use cases. \nOne example could be offloading to support time-critical industrial use cases. However\, to ensure deterministic performance and support timing predictability of real-time applications that utilize the edge-cloud continuum\, more enhancements are required in the computation domain and communication domain. In this case\, I will present our initial plans for our new VINNOVA project\, which is called AORTA. We will develop technologies that allow offloading of real-time services and functionality to the edge and cloud. We will build upon recent advances in 5G and cloud and networking technologies\, as well as cutting-edge research results. The AORTA framework will support a fluid compute model where functionality will be dynamically deployed locally\, at the edge\, or in the cloud and support integration and real-time performance irrespective of where they execute. \nBIO:  Dr. Ali Balador graduated in computer science at the Polytechnic University of Valencia\, where he also achieved his Phd on the topic of wireless communication for vehicular environments in 2016. He held the role of Assistant Professor at Mälardalen University for 5 years. He was a visiting researcher at University of Bologna in Italy\, Halmstad University in Sweden\, and the National Institute of Informatics (NII) in Japan. \nAli has a background in a number of industries\, such as automotive\, railway\, healthcare\, and manufacturing but has spent most of his time focusing on the automotive sector\, working in research and development projects where he acted as main technical coordinator or WP leader. He spent 6 years at RISE Research Institute of Sweden where\, he focused on topics such as edge and cloud computing and the combination with artificial intelligence. \nIn April 2022\, he joined Ericsson Research in Sweden in the role of senior researcher and project manager. His own personal research interests include wireless networks\, distributed systems\, cloud and edge computing\, and security & privacy.

SUMMARY:TECoSA Research Seminar: Collaborative Collision Avoidance of Connected Vehicles Using ADMM with PI-Regulated Lagrangian Multipliers
DESCRIPTION:Speaker:  Kaige Tan\, TECoSA PhD student\nLocation:  Gladan\, Brinellvägen 85 (KTH Campus)\nZoom link: circulated to members (contact Vicki for more info)\nRegister for IRL participation: email vickid@kth.se  by kl.15 on Monday 24 April \n\nABSTRACT: The decentralized approach is popular for the collaborative collision avoidance of connected vehicles in many scenarios. By modeling the task as a collaborative optimal control problem\, Lagrangian methods are widely used to decouple the constraints and enable the decentralized solution. However\, potential constraint-violating behavior will lead to oscillations during the Lagrangian update\, resulting in more iterations and lower real-time efficiency. \nExisting methods generally neither address this shortcoming\, nor explore the Lagrangian update mechanism. This study takes a control perspective\, and solves this collaborative optimal control problem based on an extension of the Alternating Directions Method of Multipliers (ADMM) algorithm by performing the iteration update with a Proportional-Integral- (PI-) regulated controller. The link between the Lagrangian optimization and the PI controller improves the convergence performance during iterations. Simulation results in traffic intersection scenarios demonstrate the advantage of the proposed approach. The preliminary results and future work on its real-time implementation on the 5G testbed will also be discussed.
