A New Vehicle Dataset in the City of Los Angeles for V2X and Machine Learning Applications

Abstract

The fifth-generation (5G) network is the current emerging technology that meets the increasing need for higher throughputs and greater system capacities. It is expected that 5G technology will enable many new applications and services. Vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication is an example of an application that is supported by 5G technology and beyond. A V2X communication system allows a vehicle to be connected to an entity, such as a pedestrian, another vehicle, infrastructure, and a network, to provide a robust transportation solution. It uses many models and strategies that are usually based on machine learning (ML) techniques, which require the use of a vehicle dataset. In this paper, a real vehicle dataset is proposed that was generated in the city of Los Angeles (LA). It is called the Vehicle dataset in the city of LA (VehDS-LA). It has 74,170 samples that are located on 15 LA streets and each sample has 4 features. The LA dataset has been opened to allow researchers in V2X and ML fields to use it for academic purposes. The main uses of the VehDS-LA dataset are studies related to 5G networks, vehicle automation, or ML-Based vehicle mobility applications. The proposed dataset overcomes limitations experienced by previous related works.
