Harness generative AI for connected and autonomous vehicle systems
As generative AI reshapes intelligent transportation, engineers and researchers need rigorous frameworks for deploying these technologies in safety-critical systems. This book offers a comprehensive treatment of the models, protocols, and adaptation techniques required to bring large language models, vision-language models, diffusion models, and agentic systems into modern CAV architectures. The book progresses from generative foundations through multimodal representation, language-based interaction, agentic coordination, communication protocols, model adaptation, and validation and safety. Mathematical, probabilistic, and reinforcement-learning prerequisites are consolidated into dedicated appendices, allowing the main chapters to focus on system design and CAV-specific applications.
Written by an award-winning researcher with more than 100 patents across connected vehicles and AI, readers will also find:

• Practical treatment of prompt engineering, retrieval-augmented generation, function calling, and tool use for grounding GenAI in vehicular context
• Chapters on agent architectures, multi-agent systems, orchestration frameworks, and MCP and A2A protocols for collaborative CAV intelligence
• Adaptation and deployment techniques including supervised fine-tuning, reinforcement learning fine-tuning, and knowledge distillation for resource-constrained edge platforms
• Dedicated chapters on simulation platforms, evaluation methodologies, and ethical and safety considerations for deploying generative AI in autonomous vehicles
• Supported by instructor resources and additional supporting materials     

Automotive engineers, AI researchers, and graduate students at the intersection of machine learning and intelligent transportation will find this book indispwensable. Readers from OEMs, mobility startups, or academic labs gain the foundations and practices needed to design, adapt, and validate generative AI in connected mobility.
