Abstract:

As artificial intelligence (AI) has already seen numerous successful applications, the upcoming challenge lies in how to realize artificial general intelligence (AGI). Self-learning algorithms can autonomously acquire knowledge and adapt to new, demanding applications, recognized as one of the most effective techniques to overcome this challenge. Although many related studies have been conducted, there is still no comprehensive and systematic review available, nor well-founded recommendations for the application of autonomous intelligent systems, especially autonomous driving. As a result, this article comprehensively analyzes and classifies self-learning algorithms into three categories: broad self-learning, narrow self-learning, and limited self-learning. These categories are used to describe the popular usage, the most promising techniques, and the current status of hybridization with self-supervised learning. Then, the narrow self-learning is divided into three parts based on the self-learning realization path: sample self-learning, model self-learning, and self-learning architecture. For each method, this article discusses in detail its self-learning capacity, challenges, and applications to autonomous driving. Finally, the future research directions of self-learning algorithms are pointed out. It is expected that this study has the potential to eventually contribute to revolutionizing autonomous driving technology.
