C. Macadam et al., USING NEURAL NETWORKS TO IDENTIFY DRIVING STYLE AND HEADWAY CONTROL BEHAVIOR OF DRIVERS, Vehicle System Dynamics, 29, 1998, pp. 143-160
This paper illustrates the use of neural network techniques for analyz
ing headway data collected from a group of 36 driving subjects during
normal on-highway driving. Pattern recognition methods are used to ide
ntify different types of headway-keeping behavior exhibited by these d
rivers and their relative distributions. Possibilities for using neura
l networks to represent longitudinal control behavior of drivers are a
lso considered and discussed.
