Cognition of Driving Context in a Connected and Semi-autonomous Vehicle: A Perspective

摘要

In this paper, we present our approach for the cognition of driving context in a connected and semi-autonomous vehicle. This cyber-physical vehicle has three main components: the embedded system, the networking and real-time system, and the intelligent system that communicate with each other via Cloud computing infrastructure. This paper is about the functionalities of the intelligent system in the cognition of driving context and the actions that it invokes for each of these driving situations. The driving context is determined as a result of the fusion of various parameters representing the context of the environment, the vehicle and the driver. The fission process yields the action that must be implemented with regards to the driving situation in consideration. Ontology is used as a tool for knowledge representation. This work is a contribution to safe driving in a connected and semi-autonomous vehicle.
