Purpose For autonomous vehicles, trajectory prediction of surrounding vehicles is beneficial to improving the situational awareness of dynamic and stochastic traffic environments, which is a crucial and indispensable element to realize highly automated driving. Design/methodology/approach In...

Vector autoregressive models have widely been applied in macroeconomics and macroeconometrics to estimate economic relationships and to empirically assess theoretical hypothesis. To achieve the latter, we propose a Bayesian inference approach to analyze the dynamic interactions among...

This paper deals with the estimation of state changes in system descriptions for dynamic Bayesian networks (DBNs) by using a genetic procedure and particle filters (PFs). We extend the DBN scheme to more general cases with unknown Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) and state changes. First, we...
