Variational autoencoders simulate vehicle drivetrain signals effectively

Researchers have developed variational autoencoders (VAEs) to simulate vehicle jerk signals from torque demand, addressing limitations in real-world drivetrain data. The VAEs, trained on data from electric SUVs, can generate realistic jerk signals that capture various drivetrain scenarios without needing detailed system parameters. This approach offers an alternative to costly experiments and manual modeling, potentially speeding up vehicle development by aiding data augmentation and scenario exploration. AI

IMPACT Potential to streamline vehicle validation and accelerate development through improved simulation.

    Drivetrain simulation using variational autoencoders

    arXiv:2501.17653v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: This work proposes variational autoencoders (VAEs) to predict a vehicle's jerk signals from torque demand in the context of limited real-world drivetrain datasets. We implement both unconditional and conditional VAEs, trained on…
