contents Rapid advances in Machine Learning (ML) have triggered new trends in Autonomous Vehicles (AVs). ML algorithms play a crucial role in interpreting sensor data, predicting potential hazards, and optimizing navigation strategies. However, achieving full autonomy in cluttered and complex situations, such as intricate intersections, diverse sceneries, varied trajectories, and complex missions, is still challenging, and the cost of data labeling remains a significant bottleneck. The adaptability and robustness of humans in complex scenarios motivate the inclusion of humans in the ML process, leveraging their creativity, ethical power, and emotional intelligence to improve ML effectiveness. The scientific community knows this approach as Human-In-The-Loop Machine Learning (HITL-ML). Towards safe and ethical autonomy, we present a review of HITL-ML for AVs, focusing on Curriculum Learning (CL), Human-In-The-Loop Reinforcement Learning (HITL-RL), Active Learning (AL), and ethical principles. In CL, human experts systematically train ML models by starting with simple tasks and gradually progressing to more difficult ones. HITL-RL significantly enhances the RL process by incorporating human input through techniques like reward shaping, action injection, and interactive learning. AL streamlines the annotation process by targeting specific instances that need to be labeled with human oversight, reducing the overall time and cost associated with training. Ethical principles must be embedded in AVs to align their behavior with societal values and norms. In addition, we provide insights and specify future research directions.
