3D object detection for autonomous vehicle by Wang, Yihan

“…3D object detection plays an important role in autonomous driving, while most state-of-the-art researches are developed based on 64-line LiDARs. However, the cost of high-resolution LiDARs are several magnitude higher than the low- resolution applied LiDARs on the makes the current research majority of low-cost robotics hard to be widely platforms. …”

Live Verification in an Interactive Proof Assistant by Gruetter, Samuel, Fukala, Viktor, Chlipala, Adam

“…We present a prototype for a tool that enables programmers to verify their code as they write it in real-time. After each line of code that the programmer writes, the tool tells the programmer whether it was able to prove absence of undefined behavior so far, and displays a concise representation of the symbolic state of the program right after the added line. …”
