Abstract:

Compared with expressway traffic environment, urban traffic environment has higher complexity and uncertainty. Therefore, autonomous vehicles need behavior decision system to give safe and effective driving actions in driving scenarios. In this paper, a behavior decision model combined ontology semantic and probabilistic reasoning of Bayesian network (BN) is proposed. Based on the multi-source heterogeneous information and domain expert experience in autonomous driving scene, the ontology is establishd and carried out probability expansion to convert ontology to BN, which can obtain the best driving action in the current driving scene through BN. This method not only realizes the formal description and sharing of driving scene domain knowledge, but also takes into account the uncertainty in driving scene. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed method in autonomous vehicle behavior decision is verified by Prescan/Simulink joint simulation experiment.

Key words: autonomous vehicle, behavior decision-making, ontology, Bayesian network(BN), Prescan joint simulation
