Abstract

In this study, we present a computational model of a car driver´s cognitive process and eye movement in relation to risk evaluation for greater safe driving assistance. The model status is mainly determined by visual inputs. In simulations, we reconstructed and predicted the driver eye movements while driving using an environmental risk calculation model, and compared them to the eye movements of an actual human driver.
