We are happy to announce a Special Issue of Applied Stochastic Models in Business
and Industry (ASMBI), the official journal of ISBIS (International Society for Business and Industrial Statistics), dedicated to the topics that pertain to autonomous vehicles (or automated driving systems). Such topics include, but are not limited to, the training of such vehicles, the statistical assessment of their safety, the measurement of their environmental impact, issues related to insurance and legal regulation, economic impact, social implications, and cybersecurity.

Papers should present either innovative methodologies in Data Science/Stochastic Modeling, or insightful applications of existing statistical methods. All submissions will go through the standard, selective review process of ASMBI. The deadline for submissions is 30 September 2022 and submissions should be made through the website https://wiley.atyponrex.com/journal/ASMB.

Please follow the ASMBI author submission guidelines given on the ASMBI website and click on the box about submissions for special issues, mentioning “Autonomous Vehicles” when requested.

The Guest Editors of the special issue will be David Banks (banks@stat.duke.edu) and Feng Guo (feng.guo@vt.edu). For any information about the ASMBI journal, please contact its Editor-in-Chief, Fabrizio Ruggeri (fabrizio@mi.imati.cnr.it).
