Background
Scania is one of the world’s leading manufacturer of trucks and buses for heavy transports, as well as industrial and marine engines. Transport services and logistics services make up an increasing part of our business, which guarantees Scania’s customers cost-efficient transport solutions and high availability. Over a million Scania vehicles are in active use, in over 100 countries.
In the Connectivity section within Scania R&D, we develop new solutions for connected vehicles in our Internet of Things (IoT) platform, as part of Scania’s increasing focus on communication, services and smart transport solutions. Advanced data analysis capabilities are a cornerstone enabler in this development.
Target/scope
The goal of this project is use deep learning methods to generate intermediate geospatial data points to increase the temporal resolution (data frequency). Generative adversarial network (GAN) and super resolution GAN (SRGAN) have shown to be able to create higher resolution images from its original. We would like to explore this using our geospatial data on the temporal dimension. Today, Scania collects geopositions of its vehicles in varying frequencies and increasing the temporal resolution would allow us to improve our research and analysis such as electrification. A big challenge with geospatial data is that the position has a physical context, meaning that a simple interpolated intermediate point could yield a point in a lake, which is not desirable.
Training data is available in the form of several years of geospatial traces from Scania’s global connected fleet of more than 450 000 heavy trucks and buses. The student will have access to Scania’s Hadoop cluster as computational resources to train and run their models.
