Abstract:

Driver hazard perception plays an important role in preventing and reducing road traffic accidents. For the disadvantages of inconsistent representation of feature vectors of hazard perception and insufficient interpretability of algorithms to practical problems, in this paper 3×2×2 experimental scenarios of three dimensions in terms of danger resource, overt and covert hazard scenes, strong and weak hazard perception state through artificial control to realize the predetermined classification of hazard perception. A combination of paired T-test and Wilcoxon signed-rank test is designed to quantitatively compare the difference of features in the state of strong and weak perception. A binary classification of hazard perception state based on 10-fold cross-parameter tuning SVM algorithm is proposed. The results show that drivers are more active in reacting to danger in the state of strong hazard perception, tending to avoid danger rather than emergency avoidance, while maintaining a lower speed, preferring throttle control rather than brake control, with increase of gaze and saccade behaviors. In the scene of covert hazard source, the driver's manipulation is stronger and more frequent, and the level of HP affected by the overt and covert hazard is related to the type of hazard, with highest level by motorcycle and lowest by human. At C=1, γ=0.1, the SVM model has the best performance with the accuracy of 89.2%, the precision of 90.6%, the recall of 87.8%, and the F1 value of 0.888 when the time headway, standard deviation of vehicle speed, maximum brake pedal force, standard deviation of acceleration, pre-deceleration time, mean vehicle speed, standard deviation of throttle opening, number of saccades, number of fixations are selected as features. The model of XGBoost has lower recognition ability for weak perception than the model of SVM. This study has significant guiding significance for the quantitative evaluation of drivers' hazard perception state.
