Scalable Fail-degraded Systems for Autonomous Vehicles - A Survey

Autonomous vehicles represents a ground-breaking transportation technology which has the potential to provide many benefits to the society. To fully utilize this technology, it is essential that the autonomous vehicle maintains safe behavior under different conditions and in case of failures. Fail-d...
