The choice of prediction horizon can significantly impact the safety, comfort, and efficiency of automated vehicles. This study explores the relationship between different prediction horizons and vehicle-level performance to determine the minimum required and optimal prediction horizons for specific automated driving applications.
This research presents the validation of shared control strategies for critical maneuvers, including overtaking in low visibility and lateral evasive actions, in automated driving systems. The proposed approach focuses on the lateral control of the vehicle and involves a modular architecture with an arbitration module and shared control algorithms. The validation is conducted using a dynamic simulator with real drivers, demonstrating improved safety and user acceptance compared to no shared-control support.
This paper proposes a methodology to systematically analyze causal relations between parameters of driving scenarios in order to decrease the amount of required data and to transfer causal patterns for generating realistic scenarios on unobserved urban intersections.
