abstract = {External Human-Machine Interfaces (eHMI) enable interaction between vehicles and Vulnerable Road Users (VRU), for example, to warn VRUs of the car’s presence. Warning systems should warn of the situation’s urgency, which can be achieved using Machine Learning (ML)-based VRU detection models. ML models and eHMI interaction concepts are usually developed by different teams and tested separately, often resulting in integration problems. This work contributes to a low-code approach to model interaction concepts involving ML models to enable end-to-end prototypes for early integration and User eXperience (UX) testing. We use flow-based modeling with Node-RED, the virtual driving simulator CARLA and YOLOv5 as state-of-the-art deep learning techniques for VRU detection. We show two scenarios (cornering lights and context-aware VRU warning) in an interactive demonstrator, meaning a manual live control of pedestrian and car. We consider our approach to model and evaluate interaction concepts without writing code feasible for non-computer scientists.},

abstract = {Generative models can be used to synthesize 3D objects of high quality and diversity. However, there is typically no control over the properties of the generated object.This paper proposes a novel generative adversarial network (GAN) setup that generates 3D point cloud shapes conditioned on a continuous parameter. In an exemplary application, we use this to guide the generative process to create a 3D object with a custom-fit shape. We formulate this generation process in a multi-task setting by using the concept of auxiliary classifier GANs. Further, we propose to sample the generator label input for training from a kernel density estimation (KDE) of the dataset. Our ablations show that this leads to significant performance increase in regions with few samples. Extensive quantitative and qualitative experiments show that we gain explicit control over the object dimensions while maintaining good generation quality and diversity.},
