Discretionary lane change (DLC) is a basic but complex maneuver in driving, which aims at reaching a faster speed or better driving conditions, e.g., further line of sight or better ride quality. Although many DLC decision-making models have been studied in traffic engineering and autonomous driving, the impact of human factors, which is an integral part of current and future traffic flow, is largely ignored in the existing literature. In autonomous driving, the ignorance of human factors of surrounding vehicles will lead to poor interaction between the ego vehicle and the surrounding vehicles, thus, a high risk of accidents. The human factors are also a crucial part to simulate a human-like traffic flow in the traffic engineering area. In this paper, we integrate the human factors that are represented by driving styles to design a new DLC decision-making model. Specifically, our proposed model takes not only the contextual traffic information but also the driving styles of surrounding vehicles into consideration and makes lane-change/keep decisions. Moreover, the model can imitate human drivers decision-making maneuvers to the greatest extent by learning the driving style of the ego vehicle. Our evaluation results show that the proposed model almost follows the human decision-making maneuvers, which can achieve 98.66% prediction accuracy with respect to human drivers decisions against the ground truth. Besides, the lane-change impact analysis results demonstrate that our model even performs better than human drivers in terms of improving the safety and speed of traffic.

As the advanced driver assistance system (ADAS) functions become more sophisticated, the strategies that properly coordinate interaction and communication among the ADAS functions are required for autonomous driving. This paper proposes a derivative- free optimization based imitation learning method for the decision maker that coordinates the proper ADAS functions. The proposed method is able to make decisions in multi-lane highways timely with the LIDAR data. The simulation-based evaluation verifies that the proposed method presents desired performance.

Fast recognizing drivers decision-making style of changing lanes plays a pivotal role in safety-oriented and personalized vehicle control system design. This paper presents a time-efficient recognition method by integrating k-means clustering (k-MC) with K-nearest neighbor (KNN), called kMC-KNN. The mathematical morphology is implemented to automatically label the decision-making data into three styles (moderate, vague, and aggressive), while the integration of kMC and KNN helps to improve the recognition speed and accuracy. Our developed mathematical morphology-based clustering algorithm is then validated by comparing to agglomerative hierarchical clustering. Experimental results demonstrate that the developed kMC-KNN method, in comparison to the traditional KNN, can shorten the recognition time by over 72.67% with recognition accuracy of 90%-98%. In addition, our developed kMC-KNN method also outperforms the support vector machine (SVM) in recognition accuracy and stability. The developed time-efficient recognition approach would have great application potential to the in-vehicle embedded solutions with restricted design specifications.
Autonomous parking technology is a key concept within autonomous driving research. This paper will propose an imaginative autonomous parking algorithm to solve issues concerned with parking. The proposed algorithm consists of three parts: an imaginat ive model for anticipating results before parking, an improved rapid-exploring random tree (RRT) for planning a feasible trajectory from a given start point to a parking lot, and a path smoothing module for optimizing the efficiency of parking tasks. Our algorithm is based on a real kinematic vehicle model; which makes it more suitable for algorithm application on real autonomous cars. Furthermore, due to the introduction of the imagination mechanism, the processing speed of our algorithm is ten times faster than that of traditional methods, permitting the realization of real-time planning simultaneously. In order to evaluate the algorithms effectiveness, we have compared our algorithm with traditional RRT, within three different parking scenarios. Ultimately, results show that our algorithm is more stable than traditional RRT and performs better in terms of efficiency and quality.

This paper aims to investigate the characteristics of durations of discretionary lane changes (LCs) on freeways based on an enriched dataset containing LC vehicle trajectories of 2905 passenger cars and 433 heavy vehicles. A comprehensive analysis of LC duration is conducted and four stochastic LC duration models are built according to vehicle types and LC directions. It is found that the LC duration varies across different vehicle types and LC directions. The modelling results show that different variables have different effects on LC duration for different vehicle types and LC directions. Fixed-parameter, latent class, and random parameter accelerated hazard time (AFT) models were built considering driver heterogeneity. Results show that heavy vehicle drivers show more heterogeneity. Different variables were found for different vehicle types and LC directions. The results of this study can be beneficial to understand the mechanism of LC process and the influence of LC on traffic flow.

Lane change is a very demanding driving task and number of traffic accidents are induced by mistaken maneuvers. An automated lane change system has the potential to reduce driver workload and to improve driving safety. One challenge is how to improve driver acceptance on the automated system. From the viewpoint of human factors, an automated system with different styles would improve user acceptance as the drivers can adapt the style to different driving situations. This paper proposes a method to design different lane change styles in automated driving by analysis and modeling of truck driver behavior. A truck driving simulator experiment with 12 participants was conducted to identify the driver model parameters and three lane change styles were classified as the aggressive, medium, and conservative ones. The proposed automated lane change system was evaluated by another truck driving simulator experiment with the same 12 participants. Moreover, the effect of different driving styles on driver experience and acceptance was evaluated. The evaluation results demonstrate that the different lane change styles could be distinguished by the drivers; meanwhile, the three styles were overall evaluated as acceptable on safety issues and reliable by the human drivers. This study provides insight into designing the automated driving system with different driving styles and the findings can be applied to commercial automated trucks.
