Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

A standardized and intelligent traffic system is necessary to improve transportation safety and traffic management efficiency. Artificial intelligence can predict and solve various types of problems such as intersection signal control, traffic scheduling, and vehicle motion planning, so as to achieve the regulation of the traffic system. This Special Issue aims to share innovative ideas on how artificial intelligence can improve transportation safety and traffic management efficiency.

This Special Issue therefore welcomes original application-focused research and investigations using AI to predict and solve traffic problems, such as graph neural networks, graph attention networks, and so on. It aims to promote communication and interaction between researchers in different fields. We invite high quality original research articles as well as review articles.

In this study, we propose a dual-stream UNet neural network architecture design named CPF-UNet, specifically designed for efficient semantic pixel-level segmentation tasks. This architecture cleverly extends the basic structure of the original UNet, mainly through the addition of a unique attention-guided branch in the encoder part, aiming to enhance the model’s ability to comprehensively capture and deeply fuse contextual information. The uniqueness of CPF-UNet lies in its dual-path mechanism, which differs from the dense connectivity strategy adopted in networks such as UNet++. The dual-path structure in this study can effectively integrate deep and shallow features without relying excessively on dense connections, achieving a balanced processing of image details and overall semantic information. Experiments have shown that CPF-UNet not only slightly surpasses the segmentation accuracy of UNet++, but also significantly reduces the number of model parameters, thereby improving inference efficiency. We conducted a detailed comparative analysis, evaluating the performance of CPF-UNet against existing UNet++ and other corresponding methods on the same benchmark. The results indicate that CPF-UNet achieves a more ideal balance between accuracy and parameter quantity, two key performance indicators. Full article

The rapid proliferation of handheld intelligent devices and the advent of 5G technology have brought about convenient and fast services for people. In perception-oriented application services, participating users will upload sensitive mobile data in order to obtain benefits. While devising privacy protection strategies to ensure data security, it is crucial to accomplish task perception related to data collection to the fullest extent possible. To address this challenge, this paper proposes a personalized data privacy protection algorithm based on an adaptive dynamic adjustment grid and the minimum wage task allocation strategy. According to the different levels of users’ needs for privacy protection, combined with the privacy budget allocation strategy, we design a different-level differential privacy protection mechanism and consider the reward mechanism in task allocation to balance the effectiveness and security of the location data uploaded by users. Experiments show that the strategy proposed in this paper can not only protect the data but also enable users to freely choose the level of privacy protection. Full article
