Safety for Autonomous Trucking

the world is messy—robo-taxies would be confused
It seems like an increasing trend to do data argumentation with generative approaches.
safety standards
ISO 26262
how to do it , instead of what to do
- functional safety standard
- methods about testing and processes
ISO 21448
intended functionality
- scenario based analysis of hazardous situations—“triggering conditions” => “mitigations” shown below
- identification and mitigation of functional insufficiencies
- (requires?) the discovering of unknown unknowns with mitigations

SAIC: Speech Anonomyzation
Last edited: August 8, 2025Challenge of speech anonymization: cannot develop a model which both preserves speech features well but also effectively anonymizes the speech.
Methodology
- Separate content and speech encoders
- Results in highly concentrated + effective speech content, but with very widespread voiceprint

sample space
Last edited: August 8, 2025sample space \(S\) is the set of all possible outcomes of an experiment. It could be continuous or distinct.
equally likely outcomes
Some sample spaces have equally likely outcomes:
- coin flip
- flipping two coins
- rolling a fair die
If we have equally likely outcomes, \(P(outcome)\) = \(\frac{1}{S}\).
If your sample space has equally likely outcomes, the probability is juts counting:
\begin{equation} P(E) = \frac{count(E)}{count(S)} \end{equation}
Whenever you use this tool, you have to think about whether or not your outcomes are equally likely. For instance, the “sum of two dice rolling” is NOT equally likely.
