Aigc-driven human-machine intelligence in ITS: technologies, applications, evaluation framework, challenges, and future directions
摘要
This paper explores the integration of Artificial Intelligence Generated Content (AIGC), a rapidly evolving branch of generative AI, with Human-Machine intelligence (HMI) to enhance the functionality of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS). As transportation systems grow increasingly complex, adaptive decision-making becomes essential for interpreting vast streams of real-time data from vehicles, infrastructure, and users. AIGC plays a transformative role in optimizing traffic flow through dynamic routing and real-time traffic management, while human intelligence ensures these systems remain responsive to evolving real-world conditions. For safety, AIGC is used to simulate complex driving scenarios for autonomous vehicle training and detect traffic anomalies, with human oversight providing contextual decisions in ambiguous situations. For sustainability, AIGC supports data-driven strategies to reduce emissions and energy use, while human expertise ensures alignment with ethical and environmental goals. This synergy enhances real-time decision-making, improving both accuracy and adaptability across ITS scenarios. The paper presents a comprehensive review of core and supporting AIGC technologies and their applications across key ITS domains. Case studies and initiatives from industry leaders demonstrate practical implementations of AIGC-driven HMI collaboration. To guide future deployments, we propose a conceptual five-layer evaluation framework for assessing AIGC-HMI systems, encompassing functional performance, human interaction, explainability, ethical compliance, and robustness. We also address challenges such as legacy system integration, data privacy, model bias, and scalability. The paper concludes by outlining future research directions, emphasizing the need for scalable, interpretable, and ethically aligned AIGC models. This work contributes to the development of intelligent, adaptive, and trustworthy transportation systems.
