Driving Performance Assessment Based on Accurate Position Tracking

Abstract EN

A driving performance assessment (DPA) system has been proposed in this paper to evaluate drivers’ skills in training.

The system is based on centimeter-level localization of the vehicles, thanks to differential BeiDou Navigation Satellite System (BDS).

Given a vehicle’s dimensions, its envelopment has been discretized both temporally and spatially as binary images, while the training area is modeled as a grayscale image where the intensity denotes the penalty of the certain area in unit time.

The performance index can be obtained from the summation of images along with time.

Experiments have been conducted to demonstrate the accuracy of vehicle tracking and the effectiveness of the proposed assessment system.
