Vision Language Models
Human-Centered Autonomous Driving

Traditional environment modeling techniques often neglect the intricate role of human behavior, perception, and interaction within driving scenarios. This workshop will bring together researchers, engineers, and practitioners to explore innovative approaches that incorporate human elements into autonomous systems.

We focus on areas such as behavior and decision-making models for humans, technologies involving human participation, methods for vision language modelling, interpretable multi-sensor fusion, as well as simulation and testing environments. This workshop aims to overcome existing hurdles, point out potential prospects and boost the creation of autonomous driving systems that are human-centric, by comprehending and reacting appropriately to motorists and passengers, through the promotion of collaboration and exchange of knowledge.
