In-Lane Localization and Ego-Lane Identification Method Based on Highway Lane Endpoints by Kyoungtaek Choi, Jae Kyu Suhr, Ho Gi Jung

“…This paper proposes an in-lane localization method that uses lane endpoints, the relation between a camera and a road, and the estimated vehicle’s orientation from a map. In addition, this paper proposes an ego-lane identification method that generates a hypothesis about an ego vehicle position per lane by using the proposed in-lane localization method and verifies each hypothesis by the projection of lane endpoints and an additional landmark such as a road sign. …”

Bayesian Approach to Equipartition Estimation of Magnetic Field Strength by Adam A. Zychowicz, Krzysztof T. Chyży

“…The derived formalism was applied in the general case of a magnetic field consisting of both uniform and randomly oriented field components. The applied Bayesian approach naturally provides the uncertainties in the estimated magnetic field strengths resulting from the uncertainties in the observables and the assumed values of the unknown physical parameters. …”
