Evaluation of A Semi-Autonomous Lane Departure Correction System Using Naturalistic Driving Data (1702.06557v1)

Abstract: Evaluating the effectiveness and benefits of driver assistance systems is essential for improving the system performance. In this paper, we propose an efficient evaluation method for a semi-autonomous lane departure correction system. To achieve this, we apply a bounded Gaussian mixture model to describe drivers' stochastic lane departure behavior learned from naturalistic driving data, which can regenerate departure behaviors to evaluate the lane departure correction system. In the stochastic lane departure model, we conduct a dimension reduction to reduce the computation cost. Finally, to show the advantages of our proposed evaluation approach, we compare steering systems with and without lane departure assistance based on the stochastic lane departure model. The simulation results show that the proposed method can effectively evaluate the lane departure correction system.
