Abstract :
Recent years have brought hope that driving support systems tailored to the characteristics of each driver can be developed. To accomplish this, a driver model must be constructed that considers the driver´s psychological function when inferring driver behavior. This paper thus proposes a method to infer driver behavior by capturing time-series steering angle data at the time of lane change. The proposed method uses a static type conditional Gaussian model on Bayesian networks. By using this method, if the driver behavior of the subject and learned data nearness of features (norms) are below a certain level, it is possible to infer driver behavior with nearly 100% probability. Moreover, compared to the HMM models, this method reduces the rate of incorrect inference inclusion.
