Our Goal

Intelligent Vehicular Systems and Control (IVSC)’s goal is to promote applying system & control theory and computational intelligence to solving current and future mobility problems in achieving safe, comfortable, green, and autonomous operations of ground vehicles. The IVSC strives to cover both theoretic and practical aspects of intelligent vehicles, automotive systems and controls. More specifically, IVSC covers both the traditional applications (e.g., vehicle & subsystem controls, electrification and powertrain, driver modeling, vehicle integration) and the emerging areas such as semi-autonomous and autonomous vehicles, collaborative vehicles, virtual driver systems, machine learning for automotive applications (e.g., deep driving and perception). The IVSC technical committee will organize special sessions in international conferences under SMC, collaborate with academia, industry, and government agencies on emerging technical programs.

Recent Activities

  • Organized special sessions on “Intelligent Vehicle Systems and Control” at IEEE SMC each year from 2009 to date, including the following
  • IEEE SMC’16: the largest of our special sessions to date, with15 papers accepted, presenting new research in driver behavior and autonomous vehicle control.
  • IEEE SMC’14: having particular focus on autonomous and semi-autonomous vehicle systems
  • IEEE SMC’11: having particular focus on Shared Control
