Systematic Raptor Codes for Safety Broadcast in an Unsaturated Vehicular Highway Environment

Active safety broadcast is one of the most fundamental services in intelligent transportation systems. The repetition code proposed in wireless access for vehicular environment (WAVE) standard is inefficient in realistic channel conditions and rapidly changing network topologies. In this study, we propose the use of systematic raptor codes as a forward error correction (FEC) scheme at the MAC l...

Highway Networks

There is plenty of theoretical and empirical evidence that depth of neural networks is a crucial ingredient for their success. However, network training becomes more difficult with increasing depth and training of very deep networks remains an open problem. In this extended abstract, we introduce a new architecture designed to ease gradient-based training of very deep networks. We refer to netw...

Latest Trends In Automotive Electronic Systems - Highway Meets Off-Highway?

The rapid development of electronic systems in automotive vehicles has been driven for decades by constantly growing requirements of legislation for environmental protection, as well as rising demands of the end-user to improve fuel economy, safety, driving comfort and driving excitement. The manufacturers of mobile work machines also see themselves increasingly confronted with these requiremen...

Highway-LSTM and Recurrent Highway Networks for Speech Recognition

Recently, very deep networks, with as many as hundreds of layers, have shown great success in image classification tasks. One key component that has enabled such deep models is the use of “skip connections”, including either residual or highway connections, to alleviate the vanishing and exploding gradient problems. While these connections have been explored for speech, they have mainly been ex...
