发明名称 Driver behavior based parking availability prediction system and method
摘要 An in-vehicle parking system and method for displaying and analyzing parking information. The system displays information of available parking in the vicinity of a driver's destination. The system can provide personalized information, predictions and advisories to a particular driver because the system can learn the behavior of particular drivers over time.

主权项 1. A driver behavior based parking availability prediction system, comprising: a processor in data communication with: a graphical display device, a driver identifying device, a driver input device, a transceiver operative to communicate with multiple sources of parking space information, a global positioning system (GPS) module, and a non-transitory data storage device on which is stored computer code which, when executed on the processor, implements: a parking information database that stores information indicating at least one of an available parking space, and a parking space the vehicle has been parked in; a weighting factor database that stores weighting factor information; a driver preference database that stores driver preference information; a parking preference analysis engine, a parking prediction data engine; and instructions which, when executed on the processor, cause the system to: identify the driver, obtain from the driver a destination where a parking space is needed; request current information of available parking spaces proximate the destination from multiple sources of parking space information, and receive the requested information; notify, using the parking recommendation engine, parking space prediction information including one or more likely available parking spaces and prediction notifications based on the destination, the current information of available parking spaces, and the driver preference information, and present the parking space prediction information and prediction notifications on the display; and means for gathering information of the driving behavior of the driver while he is looking for the parking space, information of the parking space in which identified driver parks, means for analyzing the drivers' selection of parking space parked in, and means for adapting a parking availability model used to generate the parking space prediction information and prediction notification.
