AI Meets the V-Model: Why It Is Not A Luxury, But A Necessity

Artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly changing the automotive industry. Advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) features, such as hands-free driving, intelligent braking, and real-time traffic sign recognition, driven by machine learning, are no longer science fiction. However, despite the excitement surrounding AI, a significant challenge has emerged: how can the automotive industry ensure that AI-driven functionality is implemented safely? This paper explores how traditional engineering processes, especially the V-model used in automotive development, can evolve to include AI safely and effectively. AI is not just a nice-to-have feature; it is becoming essential. The only way to build trust in autonomous and connected vehicles is to make AI safety a top priority from the very beginning of the development process.

Working Group Details

Other Activities From This Working Group

Current projects that have been authorized by the IEEE SA Standards Board to develop a standard.


No Active Projects

Standards approved by the IEEE SA Standards Board that are within the 10-year lifecycle.


No Active Standards

These standards have been replaced with a revised version of the standard, or by a compilation of the original active standard and all its existing amendments, corrigenda, and errata.


No Superseded Standards

These standards have been removed from active status through a ballot where the standard is made inactive as a consensus decision of a balloting group.


No Inactive-Withdrawn Standards

These standards are removed from active status through an administrative process for standards that have not undergone a revision process within 10 years.


No Inactive-Reserved Standards
