通过模拟驾驶场景评估自动驾驶系统碰撞风险,精准预测潜在事故后果。

Fractional Collisions: A Framework for Risk Estimation of Counterfactual Conflicts using Autonomous Driving Behavior Simulations

  • 基于传感器数据构建反事实冲突场景,分析双方角色与反应点。
  • 预测碰撞严重程度,误差低于1%,可量化伤害与财产损失风险。
  • 适用于评估自动驾驶软件升级对安全性的提升效果。

我们提出一种基于自动化驾驶系统(ADS)或自然驾驶数据库传感器数据的反事实仿真场景,用于估计碰撞风险。通过检测和分类两车冲突类型,识别参与方角色(发起者或响应者)、响应点,并建模人类行为期望为概率性反事实轨迹。结合速度差与碰撞模型,估算事故导致的受伤或财产损失概率,称为分数碰撞(fractional collisions)。该方法还可扩展以纳入仿真、特征与参与者不确定性。在合成环境中验证,使用来自VTTI SHRP2数据库和Nexar行车记录仪数据的300多个碰撞与近碰撞场景重建,预测分数碰撞与真实值相差不足1%。进一步评估任意ADS软件版本的发起碰撞风险时,将自然响应者替换为ADS仿真器,结果显示该ADS使自然碰撞减少4倍,分数碰撞风险降低约62%。框架在25万英里自有开放回路传感器数据上也得到验证,新版本ADS引发0.4起致伤及1.7起财产损失的分数碰撞,在96%的发起冲突中降低了碰撞风险。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

We present a methodology for estimating collision risk from counterfactual simulated scenarios built on sensor data from automated driving systems (ADS) or naturalistic driving databases. Two-agent conflicts are assessed by detecting and classifying conflict type, identifying the agents' roles (initiator or responder), identifying the point of reaction of the responder, and modeling their human behavioral expectations as probabilistic counterfactual trajectories. The states are used to compute velocity differentials at collision, which when combined with crash models, estimates severity of loss in terms of probabilistic injury or property damage, henceforth called fractional collisions. The probabilistic models may also be extended to include other uncertainties associated with the simulation, features, and agents. We verify the effectiveness of the methodology in a synthetic simulation environment using reconstructed trajectories from 300+ collision and near-collision scenes sourced from VTTI's SHRP2 database and Nexar dashboard camera data. Our methodology predicted fractional collisions within 1% of ground truth collisions. We then evaluate agent-initiated collision risk of an arbitrary ADS software release by replacing the naturalistic responder in these synthetic reconstructions with an ADS simulator and comparing the outcome to human-response outcomes. Our ADS reduced naturalistic collisions by 4x and fractional collision risk by ~62%. The framework's utility is also demonstrated on 250k miles of proprietary, open-loop sensor data collected on ADS test vehicles, re-simulated with an arbitrary ADS software release. The ADS initiated conflicts that caused 0.4 injury-causing and 1.7 property-damaging fractional collisions, and the ADS improved collision risk in 96% of the agent-initiated conflicts.
