Cover Story: Road hazards are a major cause of fatalities in road accidents, emphasizing the need for accurate hazard detection to enhance safety and driving experiences. This paper proposes a flexible, cost-effective, and efficient cloud-based deep learning model employing a long short-term memory (LSTM) network to detect various types of road hazards using vehicle motion data. To overcome the challenge of acquiring extensive data for deep learning, both simulation data and experimental data are utilized in the learning process. To address potential misdetections from individual smartphones, a cloud-based fusion approach is proposed to enhance detection accuracy. The effectiveness of the proposed approach is validated through experimental tests that demonstrate their efficacy in road hazard detection. View this paper
