There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

Title:
A framework for modeling human-vehicle interactions with increasingly autonomous systems
Abstract:
Modeling human-vehicle interactions requires an understanding of the human behavior. The model development needs to capture human’s interaction with other people, the environment, and their surroundings. A challenge in model development is the ability to accurately predict human behavior, particularly in complex environments that include other human road users, such as pedestrians and bicyclists. In this presentation, a framework is provided to better quantify and predict interactive human-vehicle decision-making, which can then be used to better inform the algorithms for advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS).
