Abstract:The ITS Joint Program Office (JPO) established the AI for ITS Program recognizing the promise AI offers for achieving significant benefits in safety, mobility, efficiency, equity, accessibility, productivity, resilience, and reductions to individual and societal costs, emissions, and other negative environmental impacts. AI refers to processes that enable systems to augment routine human tasks or enable new capabilities that humans cannot perform. AI can enable or enhance a system’s ability to sense and perceive the environment; reason and analyze information; learn from experience and adapt to new situations; and make decisions, communicate, and take actions. In ITS, use of AI can support and augment the actions of traffic management center operators, transit and freight operators, decision-makers, and travelers to ensure safer, more efficient, and equitable travel. AI can be embedded in any system entity (vehicle, mobile device, roadside infrastructure, or management center) or be distributed among many entities in the system. The AI for ITS Program aligns with the priorities of the Biden-Harris Administration and the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT).
