Patent attributes
An automated method of evaluating driver performance using adaptive models includes: receiving sensor data generated by a set of vehicle sensors associated with a vehicle; generating a set of predicted paths of the vehicle based at least partly on the received sensor data; retrieving map information from a map database, the map information including road links along the set of predicted paths of the vehicle; retrieving a set of evaluation curves associated with the road links, where inclusion in the set of evaluation curves is based on evaluation of dynamic models associated with the road links along the set of predicted paths; calculating mathematical differences between each evaluation curve and the received data and generating a driver score based on a calculated difference in area between the received data and each evaluation curve; and displaying a warning if at least one of the calculated mathematical differences exceeds a warning threshold.
