Half way through the Safer Autonomous Systems project the third Network Wide Event took place once again online. Please find the details of the agenda and the activities executed by the consortium in the following post.

To close the development loop of Assurance case (AC), the final task is the generation of evidence to support the claims. The techniques for evidence generation vary with different system development solutions.

Parts of Speech (POS) tagging is a text processing technique to correctly understand the meaning of a text. POS tagging is the process of assigning the correct POS marker (noun, pronoun, adverb, etc.) to each word in an input text. We discuss POS tagging using Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) which are probabilistic sequence models.

The use of machine learning (ML) algorithms is becoming common in safety-critical autonomous systems (AS) such as autonomous vehicles and advanced robotic tasks. These systems are nonlinear and interact with nonlinear (dynamic) environments, resulting in stochastic outcomes. In this post, we introduce how ML is applied to such dynamic systems, more specifically for the autonomous vehicles, and a first discussion ...

Due to the Covid-19 situation, Network Wide Event 2 was held online through the ZOOM platform. Read about activities, training sessions and a social event organized virtually during this Network Wide Event.

Time spent on work has a significant impact on our well-being and cannot be ignored. We all want to make as much as possible out of the day. This blog contains practical tips and ideas to increase your energy levels and to use your energy in the most efficient way.

GSN is the dominant notation for AC constructions. The SACM 2.0 framework enables the model-based AC process with the support of the model-based engineering platforms, and further to link the AC model with the system model automatically. We can envisage the future application in the engineering practice of SACM.

This blog tries to provide an answer on the question: How would the deployment of autonomous systems have made the pandemic different?

Nowadays, there has been a variety of discussions about autonomous vehicles, but most are about cars and planes, so what about ships? Compared to the automotive and aircraft industry, the world took the fully autonomous ferry a bit late. In this brief, we dive into current developments and challenges of autonomous ships.

The societal benefits of autonomous vehicles (AVs) — those that operate fully without a driver — have never been clearer than they are right now. The delivery of essential items, such as medical supplies and food, with limited human contact, would serve us well in the current Coronavirus climate.
