Abstract
In the 21st century, the mainstream of technology development is the interdisciplinary integration, together with the human-centred technologies (HT) that emphasizes on friendly service for human rather than the forced adaptation by human. Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS), an integrated discipline of sensing, controls, information technology, electronics, communications and traffic management with transportation systems, represents a typical human-centred large-scale and highly complex dynamic system. It is aimed to provide the traveler information to increase safety, efficiency, and reduce traffic jam, therefore a more humanistic transportation system.  Accordingly, new research topics emerge. Specifically, increasing machine intelligence (Machine IQ), human-in-the-loop control system technology (Human-centred Control), human-based intelligent dialogue interface technology (Human-based Interfacing), vision and communication supported and enhancement systems (Smart Vision, Smart Networking), human physical conditions detection and intelligent control technology (Intelligent Control), multi-agent for large-scale systems to support information analysis (Large-Scale System Analysis). Thus, fundamental research and technology development on ITS in Taiwan is devoted to following major studies.
