SYSTEM FOR DETECTING ABNORMAL DRIVING BEHAVIOR

摘要

In an abnormal driving behavior detection system for a vehicle, an obtainer repeatedly obtains an observed value indicative of at least one of a running condition of the vehicle and a driver's driving operation of the vehicle. A mode-probability calculator calculates, each time an observed value is obtained at a given obtaining timing as a target obtained value, a mode probability for each of driving modes as a function of one or more previous observed values. A deviation calculator obtains a predicted observed value for each driving mode using a driver's normal behavior model defined therefor, and calculates a deviation of the target observed value from the predicted observed value for each driving mode. An abnormality determiner determines whether there is at least one driver's abnormal behavior based on the mode probability for each driving mode and the deviation calculated for each driving mode.

1. An abnormal driving behavior detection system for a vehicle, the system comprising
an obtainer that repeatedly obtains an observed value indicative of at least one of a running condition of the vehicle and a driver's driving operation of the vehicle; a mode-probability calculator that calculates, each time an observed value is obtained at a given obtaining timing as a target obtained value, a mode probability for each of a plurality of driving modes as a function of one or more previous observed values previously obtained before the target obtained value, each of the plurality of driving modes being defined by modelling a group of normal driving behaviors, the mode probability for each of the plurality of driving modes representing a probability that a target driving mode at the given obtaining timing corresponds to a corresponding one of the plurality of driving modes; a deviation calculator that obtains, for comparison with the target obtained value, a predicted observed value for each of the plurality of driving modes using a driver's normal behavior model defined for a corresponding one of the plurality of driving modes, and calculates a deviation of the target observed value from the predicted observed value for each of the plurality of driving modes; and an abnormality determiner that determines whether there is at least one driver's abnormal behavior based on the mode probability for each of the plurality of driving modes and the deviation calculated for each of the plurality of driving modes.
